Historically, Black Pearls have been a symbol of hope, specifically for the wounded hearted. But some also think they have similar healing energy as other dark crystals like Tourmaline or Obsidian. Belief holds that black pearls protect the wearer from negative energy. These Black pearls are found in the Tahitian and French Polynesian Islands. They are exotic, rare, and of exceptional value. (Most of the pearls range from 6-8mm).
