Oro | Silver Hand Holding Black Pearl Pendant
There is a beautiful Polynesian legend about the black pearl. Oro, the god of peace and fertility is believed to have come down to earth on the rainbow to gift a black pearl oyster to humans. However, during his visit, he fell in love with princess Bora Bora and gave her the oyster as a symbol of his love. The pearl was a symbol of his love, and even now some believe that when you gift black pearl jewellery for someone, it represents eternal love. Black pearls are one of the most mysterious-looking of all coloured pearls. They also represent mystery, independence, strength, and riches.
