Answer There is no simple answer to this question as it really depends on the type of pearl you are discussing. The most common types of pearls are cultured akoya and cultured freshwater. Neither of these are naturally produced in a black coloration. Black akoya and freshwater attain their coloration from aniline organic dyes or cobalt-60 irradiation. Natural black pearls are known as black South Sea, Tahitian or Cook Island pearls. They are produced by the Pinctada margaritifera black-lip mollusk. These naturally black pearls grow quite large are are typically more valuable than akoya or freshwater pearls. The most valuable of all pearls are those grown in the Pinctada maxima or silver and gold-lip mollusk. These pearls are usually very larger and expensive, and come in colors of white, white with pink overtone, champagne, silver, yellow and gold.
Pearls come in a variety of colors, including white, cream, pink, black, gold, and blue. The color of a pearl is influenced by the type of mollusk that produces it and the environmental factors present during its formation.

Saltwater PearlsSaltwater pearls, whether cultured or natural, are pearls which grow in marine mollusks in a saline environment such as the ocean. Freshwater PearlsFreshwater pears, whether cultured or natural, are pearls which grown in freshwater mussels in non-saline environments such as rivers, lakes and streams.
Black Pearl oysters do not produce as many pearls naturally, therefore they have always been much rarer than white pearls. Now a days, pearls are often cultured and are not quite as rare.
