Frequently asked questions
What can I get in Tahitian pearls over $5,000?

Are Tahitian pearls over $5,000 authentic?
Yes. Every piece sold by The South Sea Pearl is authenticated Pinctada margaritifera from French Polynesia, regardless of price tier. Lower-priced pieces use smaller pearl sizes or less-prized colors but maintain authentic origin and grade documentation.
Can I find AAA grade Tahitian pearls over $5,000?
Yes, in smaller sizes. AAA grade represents 5% of harvest; the price scales with size. Smaller AAA pieces are accessible at lower price tiers; larger AAA pieces require higher budgets.
How do I get the best value at this price tier?
Focus on luster (the most important grading axis) over size. A smaller AAA pearl with mirror luster looks more impressive than a larger AA pearl with softer luster.
Will pearls over $5,000 hold value?
AAA-grade Tahitian pearls hold value or appreciate over time, particularly larger sizes (12mm+) and rare overtones. Lower-grade or smaller pieces are wear-pieces rather than investment pieces.
