Australian South Sea Pearls originate from the white-lipped Pinctada Maxima, the largest pearl shell in the world. It is exceptional for pearls to reach a size of 18mm and possess impeccable beauty in terms of clarity, lustre and shape. Very rarely a shell can produce a pearl larger than 18mm, mostly of inferior quality. When a fine pearl reaches 20mm in size, it is regarded as an absolute treasure, a matching pair ever so more. Offered in this sale are Lot 497, a 19.40mm South Sea cultured pearl ring and Lot 496, a pair of well-matching South Sea cultured pearl and diamond earrings each measuring 21mm with very fine lustre and clarity, are definitely collectible jewels for pearl connoisseurs.
