The Melo Melo or Indian Volute is a giant sea snail commonly found along the coastal waters of Vietnam, Burma, and Malaysia. The pearls they produce are often symmetrical reaching sizes of 400+ carats and range in color from papaya orange to shades of yellow, beige, brown, and white. Melo pearls are considered one of the most magnificent of all natural pearls.  In fine quality

Melo pearls, a flame pattern (similar to that found in conch pearls) can be seen rolling across the pearls surface.  Pearls exhibiting this pattern are rare and can reach remarkable price.
