Provenance

The Provenance collection represents the very essence of Pearls of Australia – a journey to the birthplace of two different types of Australian pearls.

From the remote Kimberley coast home to the South Sea pearl, to the waters just north of Sydney where the Akoya pearl is grown, Provenance is a rare offering of two species of Australian pearls set together in one bespoke jewellery design.

Each piece in the Provenance range features a South Sea pearl grown at Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm hand-selected, matched and set alongside an Akoya pearl grown at Broken Bay Pearl Farm. With so few pearl farmers still cultivating Australian pearls and only one operating in NSW, Provenance enables the owner to behold something of exceptionally rare origin – a great Australian treasure.

What Makes the Provenance Collection Unique?

The Provenance collection offers an extraordinary journey, with each piece bringing together two distinct species of Australian pearls: South Sea pearls grown in WA and Akoya pearls grown in NSW. This rare combination of east and west celebrates Australia's marine beauty and delivers jewellery with unmatched storytelling.

How Are South Sea and Akoya Pearls Combined in These Designs?

Pieces in the Provenance collection are meticulously curated. Our Australian South Sea pearls from Cygnet Bay are hand-selected and matched in colour, lustre, shape, and surface quality with our Akoya pearls from Broken Bay, then artfully set into timeless designs. Whether it's rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, or strands, each piece echoes the balance of two of Australia's premier pearl-growing regions.

Why the Name "Provenance" Matters

The term "Provenance" here underscores the collections' core values or origin, transparency and sustainability. This brings a depth of meaning to this range, that extends beyond aesthetics.
