They are real but are they Tahitian?

I'm still early on in my pearl education. I know these are not dyed. The size is 11mm-9mm. That would be large for akoya, right? Am I correct in assuming they are Tahitian?

Thanks in advance for any responses :)

I would think from the photo that they are Tahitians. The more colorful one on the left (greenish outside, pinkish inside) has what are called peacock overtones.

If you are thinking of buying them, I hope you have more photos than that, though.
