Our Pearls
At Maison de Merveilles, we specialize exclusively in the finest saltwater pearls: Akoya, South Sea, and Tahitian. Each pearl is thoughtfully selected to reflect its unique origin and character. We do not carry freshwater pearls, as our commitment is to the highest luster, rarity, and refinement found only in premium saltwater varieties.
We do not carry freshwater pearls, as our focus is on heirloom-grade pieces cultivated in the most pristine waters of the world. Each pearl is carefully selected and matched to meet or exceed the grade shown.
Our promise is simple: no mystery, no inflated claims — just genuine pearls, clearly graded, and carefully selected for timeless elegance.
✨ Ethically sourced. Expertly matched. Honestly represented.
Akoya Pearls – The Timeless Classic
Grown in the cool waters of Japan, Akoya pearls are renowned for their perfectly round shapes and brilliant, mirror-like luster. Ranging in size from 6mm to 9.5mm, they embody refined beauty and classic grace. Subtle overtones of rose, silver, or ivory elevate their icy glow.
🌸 Fun fact: Akoya pearls were the first cultured pearls, introduced over a century ago by Mikimoto — the father of modern pearl farming.
South Sea Pearls – The Queen of Pearls
Harvested in the warm, clear waters of Australia, the Philippines, and Indonesia, South Sea pearls are known for their luxurious size — often 10mm to 16mm — and their silky, luminous glow. White South Sea pearls display elegant silver or blue overtones, while the rarer Golden South Sea pearls radiate in shades from light champagne to rich 24k gold.
🌊 Each pearl takes years to form, creating thick nacre and a luminous depth found nowhere else.
Tahitian Pearls – Naturally Bold & Irresistible
Tahitian pearls, born in the lagoons of French Polynesia, are nature’s only black pearls. Their color spectrum is extraordinary — from peacock green to charcoal gray, eggplant, and shimmering silver. No two are alike, making them a favorite among designers and collectors who appreciate bold, artistic elegance.
🌺 Their unique hues are 100% natural — no dyes, no treatments, just ocean-born magic.
Our Commitment to You
We believe in honest beauty. Each piece we send is individually matched for color, luster, and grade. We’re a boutique studio, and every pearl is chosen as if it were going into our own collection. While the pearl you see may not be the exact one you receive, we guarantee the same quality, grade, and aesthetic — always up to your satisfaction.
