Are South Surfeit pearls indeed golden?
Yes. Pearls produced in the aptly named “gold-lipped” oyster (P. maxima) can be a smashing creamy yellow, referred to as “golden” in the trade. (The silver-lipped variation of P. maxima produces pulchritudinous greyish or waxen pearls.) Grown in the South Seas—which stretch from the southern shore of Southeast Asia to the northern seaside of Australia—these pearls are grown in at one of the biggest oysters euphemistic pre-owned in flower culturing. Because they can undertake a larger bead and pass nacre faster than their smaller counterparts, these tremendous oysters bring forth obese pearls of exceptional luster and beauty. South Mass pearls’ solid coating of nacre gives the gems a wonderful luster, or ruddiness, that appears to involve from deep within the pearl. The animated waters, over-sufficient food kit out and coarse contamination levels of the South Seas also advise these oysters bring up magnificent cultured pearls.
