Akoya Pearl Necklace

 Beautiful rotating white 9 and 6 mm Japanese Akoya pearl necklace. Strung and knotted on silk with 18K yellow gold clasp. These are pure white with a hint of pink overtone.

The images present them as pink but they are a crisp white. These are a best seller for me and I enjoy stringing them.

The Japanese Akoya is a saltwater cultured pearl similar to that of a Mikimoto just unable to carry the name as it is trademarked. Akoya pearls are lustrous, lovely and of caliber.

16 1/2" long from clasp to clasp end

Unfortunately, at this time the Japanese Akoya pearl market is in danger due pollution and climate change. The market price of the Akoya pearl has gone up exponentially.
