Pearl Family Business
Hello everyone, today i just wanted to share one of my favorite picture taken by my dad #stephanesayeb in my other dad's #francktehaamatai #pearl #farm in #fakarava. That's what I call #familybusiness 
!!!
This picture represents all the #buoys used to hang the #oysters while our famous #Tahitian #black #pearls are formed. 18 to 24 months depending on their constitution is the time the pinctada margaritifera variety cumingii will stay underwater to produce a pearl with a minimum of 0.8mm #nacre #layer #thickness which is a requirement of the #French #Polynesia government for our pearls to be exported out of the country.

Namaka Pearl Shopping Guide
Everybody knows, what are the 4 Cs that define the value of a diamond: they are cut, color, carat and clarity. A similar classification is applied when grading pearls, but the criteria that affect the price are a bit more diverse.
The main criteria determining the value of a pearl are: size, shape, surface quality, luster and color.
Pearl Care 101
Are pearls forever? Yes, they are if you follow some basic rules you can keep their luster last for generations.
Pearl is a gemstone of an organic origin. The fact that it’s born “in the wild” makes it a rather enduring material. However, for the same reason pearls require extra attention when it comes to cleaning, storage and everyday care.
