Pearls come
in wide variety of colors,
also known as "palette of
colors". From whites,
yellows, golden, pinks,
blues and black and almost
every shade in between.
Pearl color refers
specifically to the color of
the pearl's body, considered
the fundamental color of the
pearl.
Colors generally range from
cream, to silver-white (most
common), to black (most
rare). But there are also
color overtones reflected
across a pearl's surface. In
fact, the color of a pearl
more often than not is a
meld of its body color and
its overtone, a pearl with a
"rose overtone" will
describe a white pearl with
a rose colored hue.
