Natural Poe Pipi Blister Pearl Shell Specimens (Pinctada maculata) — French Polynesia

Authentic collector specimens featuring completely natural poe pipi blister pearls (puku) naturally fused within the inner nacre of wild Pinctada maculata oyster valves.

Harvested from the remote lagoons of French Polynesia, Pinctada maculata is the smallest pearl-producing species of the Pinctada genus. Finding intact, naturally formed blister pearls of this definition, spherical relief, and intense golden saturation is extraordinarily rare. These untouched matrix specimens showcase the raw, non-nucleated formation of natural pipi pearls exactly as nature deposited them.
