Located in Papeete
You will find many shops downtown Papeete specialised in selling black pearls. Look around, take your time and ask for prices and potential discounts. Prices may vary a lot from one place to another for similar quality pearls.
Avoid buying pearls from the people installed with a chair and table just outside the Papeete traditional market (either fake plastic pearls – you can see as they are all alike, or poor quality pearls not allowed for sale). The pearls sold inside the market vary in quality but are OK to buy.
Purveyors of goods that benefit the planet and the people who live on it. Sells fair trade, locally made, recycles, and green products.
