    Are you sure it was a black pearl the diamonds were set into? If so, 
then I would expect a thin gold setting around the diamond to hold the 
diamond securely. If not, then they are probably Cubic Zirconia's, and glued 
in. I even doubt the latter, because no-one would glue a CZ into a black 
pearl - they're just too expensive for CZ's. (Perhaps you saw a black 
enamelled piece with diamonds - which would make more sense?)

     Nice start though. How are you going to get the lustre/sheen of a 
(black) pearl?
