Pia Boschetti

The girl who grows the pearls

While many young women dream of only wearing pearls, Pia is happy farming them in the remote waters of the Abrolhos Islands.

Pia’s affinity with the Abrolhos Islands and the Indian Ocean has been lifelong, after being born into a lobster fishing family. Pia has worked in the pearling industry for the past 11 years. She was the first baby baptised in the Island church and was recently married there. The love and passion for her work is obvious in every unique piece of jewellery designed. And the good news is anyone can own one of her beautiful pearls...

“We have a diverse range to appeal to a wide range of tastes, from younger, fashion styles to classic, timeless pieces, across a range of budgets,” she says. “We can even accommodate varying shades of skin tones as Abrolhos pearls are shades of dark and light silver, with overtones of green and blue, aubergine, gold, bronze and pink.”

If this isn't enough to tempt you, Pia and her team of jewellers are only too happy to work with their customers to create the perfect piece of pearl jewellery for you.
