Colored pearls are produced by specific types of mollusks that can create pearls in various hues, influenced by factors such as the oyster species, the environment, and the type of irritant. For instance, black pearls primarily come from the black-lipped oyster, while gold pearls result from the gold-lipped oyster. Additionally, the color can be enhanced through treatments like dyeing or irradiating. The natural color of a pearl is determined by the combination of the oyster's nacre and the water's mineral content.
