Rare South Sea Pearls

Rare jewelry made from exotic golden South Sea pearls, created under the Kaskadda brand, registered in 27 countries in Europe. Golden South Sea pearls are the most spectacular and valuable in the world of pearls. A necklace can cost over 100,000 euros. They are cultivated in a giant mollusk with golden edges called Pinctada maxima. Due to its rarity and sensitivity during pearl growth, South Sea pearl cultivation is very difficult and much, much more expensive than other saltwater pearls.

South Sea pearls are very rare, so the number of jewelry pieces made with them is extremely small, placing them in the category of exclusive jewelry.

A piece of jewelry with golden South Sea pearls gives elegance and exclusivity to the wearer, with its value and beauty enduring over time.

Since South Sea pearls are rare, and those of very high quality, like those used in Kaskadda jewelry, are extremely rare, there may be stock discontinuities for indefinite periods.

Each piece of jewelry in this category is a collector's item, and the quantity of pearls of this size and quality is limited.

About South Sea pearls:

• The value of a South Sea pearl, besides size and surface imperfections, is closely tied to the intensity of its color. They have a color range that starts from white, but it is a white with silver tones, specific to this type of pearl, and moves through light yellow to very strong gold. The most expensive ones have a shade similar to 24-carat gold;

• Unlike the mirror-like luster of Akoya pearls, the surface of a South Sea pearl stands out for its satin appearance and seems to glow from within;

• While most white South Sea pearls come from Australia, the golden ones come primarily from the Philippines and Indonesia. They are sold at auctions organized by major South Sea pearl growers, in mixed lots of white and gold pearls, auctions held only a few times a year in Japan and Hong Kong. Because they are very rare, global stock is very small, so few stores carry South Sea pearl jewelry;

• They are the pearls with the thickest nacre, between 2 and 4 mm, and they have the longest formation time. If an Akoya pearl takes about 2 years to form, a Tahitian pearl about 2-3 years, a South Sea pearl can take up to 4 years;

• The size of the pearl is an important factor when deciding to purchase such jewelry:

• Those of 8-10 mm can be worn at the office or formal meetings;

• Those of 11-13 mm, being opulent and precious, are worn in the evening, at parties or sumptuous events.
