Golden Pearl - Moti (South Sea)

What is Golden South Sea Pearl?

Golden Pearl stone is a rare form of natural pearl, cultivated primarily in the tropical seas of the South Sea and therefore widely referred to as South Sea Pearls. Furthermore, there are two varieties of South Sea Pearls, that is, Golden White Pearl and Golden Yellow Pearl. These two varieties of Moti stone are highly valued in the market and are known for their exceptional colour. Their captivating golden colour is a natural occurrence, an outcome of the special oyster variety (Pinctada maxima) that cultivates them so that each Golden Moti is unique.

In Vedic astrology, Pearl is associated with the Moon, the planet of emotions, mind, and peace. Golden Moti is the strongest because it combines the calming power of the Moon with the energising power of the Jupiter, symbolised by its gold colour. Natural South Sea Pearl, when worn, is believed to stabilise such divine powers, providing peace, mental tranquillity, and a soothing yet energising boost in life.

Factors Affecting the Golden Pearl Price

The value of the South Sea Pearl is usually varied based on a number of factors that influence its quality and rarity. Understanding these factors will help you make an informed buying decision when you buy Golden Moti:

Nacre Quality

The thickness of nacre is an important factor to determine a Pearl's quality and worth. Nacre is the crystalline, iridescent material that builds up to form a Pearl. Thicker nacre results in a brilliant lustre, a rich shine and glow, and greater resistance to wear. Pearls with a thin nacre layer are susceptible to chipping or flaking away. A thick and even layer of nacre greatly enhances the value and price of a South Sea Pearl.

Carat Weight

It is hard to find larger South Sea Golden Pearls and they are more expensive per carat. The price of a pearl stone increases exponentially with size and carat weight.

Lustre

It is believed that the Pearl stone has the ability to reflect light. An excellent Golden Moti should have a rich, deep, and crisp lustre, almost reflecting objects. The brighter and more even the lustre, the finer the quality.

Cut

Conversely, while round Pearls are the most expensive and valuable, South Sea Pearls are also formed in other stunning shapes like oval, drop, button, and baroque. However, round Golden moti will fetch the highest prices among other shapes.

Colour 

The South Sea Pearl Oyster's colour comes in a creamy white to deep gold. The different shades in between can be yellow and champagne. All of the colours are stunning in their own way, but the golden colour is worth the most. Also, the gold colour should be rich in tone and strength. 

Surface Quality

Natural pearls always have minute imperfections or abrasions that look like a series of scratches on the surface. These are often known as "birthmarks" or "score marks." The fewer and less noticeable the marks, the higher the value and the better the quality of the pearl.

Origin

While Golden South Sea Pearls are generally formed in the pristine waters of regions from the Philippines (Palawan and Mindanao islands), Indonesia (Bali, Lombok, and Sulawesi islands), and Myanmar (Mergui Archipelago region). The true origin of a pearl stone can significantly impact its value. South Sea golden pearls, especially those from Indonesia and the Philippines, command higher prices due to their greater size and more pronounced natural golden glow.

Treatment

Most desired is untreated natural Golden Moti. Some South Sea Pearls are given minor treatments such as dyeing and heat treatment for lustre enhancement. However, you should always be aware of the treatments involved before purchasing the gemstone.

Golden Pearl Price in India

An original South Sea Pearls price per carat in India typically starts at around ₹1000 per carat and goes upto ₹1500 per carat and more.The Sucha Moti price can go even higher for exceptional varieties of Golden Moti that have high nacre quality and colour. This price variation also depends on other factors, including treatments, surface quality, origin, and more.

Care & Cleaning of Golden Pearl Jewellery

Sucha Moti needs gentle care in order to preserve their natural glow and lustre for generations to come. Below, we have listed a few easy and simple steps on how to clean your Sucha Moti gemstone jewellery:

• Always wear your Golden Pearl ring, pendant, or necklace after applying makeup, hairspray, and perfume. Also, remove it first before engaging in any activity that will expose it to chemicals.
• Gently wash your Pearls after using them with lukewarm water and clean them with a soft, damp cloth to remove any oils or residues.
• While cleaning the gemstone, avoid scrubbing the gemstone too hard. This can cause unwanted scratches, which reduce its shine and value.
• Avoid the use of harsh chemicals, acids, alcohol, perfumes, or ultrasonic cleaners that can damage the nacre (iridescent coating of the Pearl).
• Store your South Sea Pearls apart from other jewellery to prevent scratching. Store them in a soft cloth pouch or in a lined fabric jewellery case. Pearls like a little moisture, so it is best to avoid very dry areas.

What are the benefits of the Golden Pearl stone?

This gemstone is mainly used to uplift emotional calmness, mental clarity, and the manifestation of monetary wealth. It is said to calm emotions, ease stress, sharpen intuition, and improve relationships, particularly in individuals whose Moon is weak in their birth chart.

What is the procedure to activate the South Sea Golden Pearl stone?

To activate South Sea Pearls, take a clean bowl and add a few drops of ganga jal and milk. Put the gemstone jewellery in the bowl and soak it overnight or under moonlight.

After you are done with the procedure, take out your Pearl jewellery from the mixture and rinse it with Ganga jal.

What makes Golden Pearls different from ordinary White Pearls?
