Musée de la Perle Robert Wan

"Robert Wan Pearl Museum (Musée de la Perle Robert Wan) Tahitian black pearls are the one must-have. Here, you’ll find the highest quality and original designs that feature the strange deep shimmer of black pearl (and prices that seem one digit too long)."

"All About Pearls The Pearl Museum is the only museum in the world devoted entirely to pearls. The unique presentations describe and demonstrate the history and practice of cultivating pearls as well as their place in art, history, mythology, and religion. You'll also see a collection of pearl producing oysters and shells."

Informative. Explains the history of pearls in the pacific. Took 20 minutes to view all exhibits. I know understand the Robert Wan is the Polynesian pearls equivalent of DeBeres. No cost for touring museum.

Small free museum about Tahitian pearl cultivation. Mostly, it's a retail store with expensive prices. It takes about 15 minutes to see all the exhibits. 3 small rooms, some videos. Explanations in French and English.

It’s basically a shop with a few exhibits on the side. What’s actually nice is you can also see some really amazing pearls for sale. Parking is a bit challenging.

The Robert Wan Pearl Museum in Tahiti provides insights into pearl cultivation through its exhibit, but it feels predominantly like a high-end pearl retail store rather than a pearl museum. While the free admission is a plus, the high prices of the items for sale gives a more commercial vibe.

A good place to understand how those pearls grow and where are they from. No ticket, no reservation, just walk in.

Worth stopping by if you are in town. Get a chance to learn a thing or two about the history and origin of pearls. Otherwise you can also buy some fine selections here. Finally don’t be afraid to ask the staff questions! They are very friendly and eager to share their knowledge.
