This exquisite pearl with its magnificent luster and size has few equals.

A pearl of this magnitude and significance seldom reaches the open market. Treasures like this are rarely sold at all, and if they are sold, it is often between private collectors among a small interconnected community behind closed doors.

Once a pearl like this enters a collection it generally remains there as a safely guarded jewel. The odds of it resurfacing again for sale are very slim.

This is the kind of pearl that the merchant in the book of Matthew found in a field and then sold all he had so he could purchase the field and obtain the valuable pearl.

Please don't overlook this rare opportunity to acquire not only one of the biggest natural nacreous pearls in the world, but one of the loveliest.

Contact me on the form below if you have an interest in purchasing one of the finest and most extraordinary pearls in the world.

The owner of this pearl has named it "Star of Hope" as a tribute to his mother, whose name is Bituin (Star), and his aunt, whose name is Pag-asa (Hope), hence..."Star of Hope". The name is also fitting since if you notice that there is small protrusion in the pearl that could resemble a star that rests on a rock which signifies hope.

This pearl come with a GIA certification of authenticity.

To me, this pearl epitomizes the ultimate in pearl luxury and beauty...the luster, size, baroque shape, unique characteristics....through my "pearl eyes" it is inconceivably beautiful!
