tahitian pearls are also well known as black pearls. They are one of the most precious and exotic gemstones on the jewelry market today. The color of Tahitians pearls ranges from gunmetal grey to silver white. They are also endowed with many attractive colors like baroque green, chocolate and even peacock. Firstly cultivated in 1961 by Jean-Marie Dormand in French Polynesia, tahitian pearls have been adored by many people because of their elusive and unique. This cultivation started in the lagoons of the atoll of Hikueru and Bora Bora islands in French Pllynesia. The first harvest of tahitian pearls took place in 1965, with the production of 1,000 black pearls. Not until 1996 did these pearls exported. More than $152 million worth of Tahitian gemstones had been shipped out of French Plysnesia by 1996. After the export, tahitian pearls quickly won the jewelry market owing to their properties. These black gems are smooth and have a shinning luster, which makes them a perfect accessory for necklaces, rings, pendants and other jewelry. Because of the steady and dramatic demand for these special gems, some prime harvesting places had been soon dried up since 1700. Nowadays, these rare and unique gems take time to match the tahitian pearls to other things because each of them is unique. Even the pearl experts often have to select from thousands of black gems to make a perfect match.
