I was at Tiffany's today and I noticed they sell yellow pearls. What do you think of these? I think they look nicer then the normal or black pearls.

Sorry, that it took a while. I have made a photo of a few of the pearls. I forgot to make a photo of the blackish pearl:
Well the yellow pearl is a Golden South Sea Pearl (GSSP) which is the most valuable saltwater pearl. A lot of ladies love GSSPs including me

Yes, I think it's the prettiest of all the ones available!
My understanding of South Sea pearls: Golden South Sea pearls are relatively common South Sea pearls. In terms of color, White is more precious, as they are rarer. Most Westerners prefer gold color, while Asians prefer white. Like diamonds, South Sea pearls are graded based on qualities of luster, size, color, degree of blemish-free/imperfections, and roundness. Moreover, when a strand is considered, uniformity, in terms of the the above mentioned qualities is important.
High quality South Sea pearls can be very expensive. If i can have only one strand, then I would pick white color (whitest possible with high luster), because it is more timeless and easier to match clothing. The gold color pearls are indeed tempting, though.

Oh interesting @Christiflora. Good point. I do love the yellow pearl, makes it different. But I can understand white is easier to watch clothing wise
Yes, the yellow pearl is a Golden South Sea Pearl. My sister owns Golden South sea pearl ring. I love it's rich color, luster and gorgeous golden hues. Looking forward to buy one for myself!!
