{"title":"9Mm Tahitian Loose Pearls","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"ssp-programmatic-page\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ssp-founder-commentary\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 9mm, these Tahitian pearls represent a specific point in the Pinctada margaritifera harvest spectrum. The pieces in this collection are hand-graded against the AAA-AA-A scale: surface clean to 95%+ for AAA, 85%+ for AA, with mirror luster the defining marker of AAA. Single pearls and wholesale lots for custom jewelers, designers, and pearl collectors. Drilled or undrilled on request. Hand-graded per the AAA-AA-A scale. Tahitian pearls range $80-2,000+ per pearl depending on size, grade, and overtone; the deepest peacock and silver-blue tones command 20-40% premium. Sourcing: direct from oyster farms in French Polynesia. Each lot ships with grading sheet and origin certificate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ssp-faq\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre Tahitian pearls naturally dark?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
