Types of South Sea Pearls
1. Nanyang Golden Pearl
The mother oysters that produce golden pearls are mainly the golden lipped oysters, which are mainly distributed in Australia, the Philippines, Indonesia, and other places. The pearl fluid secreted by these oysters varies from light yellow to dark gold.
Its texture is very good, so it is very precious. It is the top grade among pearls. Because this type of shellfish is very selective and requires good air quality, pure water, suitable water temperature, open bays, and areas with few typhoons for cultivation, the yield is not high.
2. White Pearl
Nanyang white pearls refer to those produced in Australia, Indonesia and other places, and are cultivated from white lipped oysters and mother of pearl oysters. Due to its enormous size, the diameter of the pearls it cultivates is generally between 10-15mm, with a maximum visible diameter of 18mm.
