Sourced from the pristine waters of the Kimberley coastline, Paspaley pearls are some of the rarest and most beautiful in the world. Touring Treasures has partnered with Paspaley to offer you exclusive and unrestricted access to the company’s mesmerizing collection, as well as an opportunity to tour their vast pearl farm in Western Australia.

During this exclusive, invitation-only tour, you’ll be captivated by the beauty of Australian pearls and be able to witness the Paspaley process from start to finish. Your tour will begin with a behind-the-scenes experience in the Kimberley at the company’s pearl farm. Then, at the Paspaley Flagship boutique in Sydney, you can see how the pearls are transformed into exquisite jewellery. You’ll also learn the five virtues of pearl grading and the philosophy behind the Paspaley jewellery design.
The Paspaley Legacy

Regarded as the most valuable pearls in the world, Paspaley has a history spanning 80 years. The family-owned business has covered three generations and is considered the pioneer of the Australian South Sea pearling industry. Paspaley is committed to sustaining the pristine waters of Northern Australia and has a team of divers who search wild pearl beds to collect the oysters by hand. This environmentally friendly fishing technique ensures there is no damage to the ocean floor. The pearls are then nurtured on a network of farms spanning 2500km. The company’s devotion to exquisitely beautiful natural pearls is truly a sight to behold.
