Howdy Shoaib,

Would the following do as the answer to your question?  Thanks!

"How much does a Tahitian pearl cost?"
http://www.papeete.com/retail/pearls/index.html

"$100 for a small pearl of average quality and up to $10,000 for a round pearl
of perfect quality with a diameter of 18mm."

Denco researcher I previously knew about the above mentioned website
address but Denco researcher I want to mention that I had read in
particular website that maximum price of manufactured Pearl of French
Polynesia island is US$ 40,000 but I have now 'forgotten' that website
address so therefore Denco researcher please provide that website
address and great thanks for that help from Shoaib.

Howdy Shoaib,

Unless you indicate them, it is impossible for me or any other researcher to
know what websites you "previously knew about."

Here is the possible source for your $40,000 pricing.

"Cultured Pearl"
http://www.madehow.com/Volume-3/Cultured-Pearl.html

"The most exotic "designer" pearls are probably the large black pearls cultured
in Australia and the South Seas. They are grown in the largest pearl oysters in
the world, and a perfect specimen of black pearl can sell in the United States
for $40,000."

Denco researcher I am satisfied with your above excellent answer so
therefore please open the answer form to receive its payment. Denco
researcher I also want to know that the manufacturing information
provided at the above mentioned website is complete OR if the 
manufacturing information provided at the above mentioned website is
'not' complete then if possible please also provide the "complete
manufacturing information" of raw Pearls in the French Polynesia
island and great thanks for that help from Shoaib.

Howdy Shoaib,

Here is the pricing information that you requested.

"How Products Are Made" website - "Cultured Pearl"

"The most exotic 'designer' pearls are probably the large black pearls cultured
in Australia and the South Seas. They are grown in the largest pearl oysters in
the world, and a perfect specimen of black pearl can sell in the United States
for $40,000."

Although it is beyond the scope of your original question, the process shown
on the above page appears to be complete.

Some additional information might be gleaned from the following website.
