When Oro, the Polynesian god of peace and fertility, came down to earth to find a mortal wife, he traveled the rainbow where one end was in the sky and the other on the earth. As Oro walked along the rainbow using it as his pathway, bits of color fell from the rainbow, mingled with the moonlight, and fell into the sea as black pearls.
There have been many ancient legends handed down from one Polynesian generation to the next on the creation of black pearls. According to one of those legends, Oro, the Polynesian god of peace and fertility, came down to earth on a rainbow to offer a special type of pearl oyster to man.
Another legend tells of the origin of the black pearls, according to this legend, when Oro decided to marry, he created a rainbow between the heavens and the earth and traveled across it where he offered the pearl to the beautiful princess of Bora Bora as a sign of his love.
The most romantic legend is how the moon shines its light upon the ocean to attract the oysters to the surface where it impregnates them with heavenly dew. Polished by time, this drop of light holds this heavenly radiance within its heart and cloaks itself in a garment that glistened with the blue, green, pink and golden colors of all the fish that swim.
For centuries before contact with Western civilization, Black Tahitian Pearls were revered for their beauty and rarity. Always associated with love then and now, this gem, seemingly created by magic in the turquoise waters of the Polynesian Islands, has a mystique that is difficult to define with words.
These myths tell of the love and admiration that people have for the "Queen of Pearls".
Tahitian Pearls remind me of that old joke...
Q. "What is black and white and red all over?" A. a newspaper.
Tahitian Pearl Jewelry is black, green, silver, aqua, pistachio, purple, peacock green, gunmetal gray all over, or as the ancients say created from a mixture of a rainbow and moonlight.
Like all the colors of the fish that swim in aqua colored tropical waters.
Bold, exotic, mysterious iridescent Tahitian Black Pearls are the most dramatic and beautiful of all the "Queen of Gems".
A gift of Tahitian Pearl jewelry is a gift that will be remembered forever.
A Tahitian Pearl necklace is completely unique, a head turner. One of the most desirable of all pearl jewelry pieces, and a necklace made of these black pearls is an instant heirloom, something to be cherished.
Whether the jewelry is a Tahitian Pearl Pendant, necklace of earrings, the owner will cherish as much as the ancient Polynesians who immortalized their beauty in myths.
