The gold standard of pearls — Japan Akoya pearls are the ones that started the entire cultured pearl industry. Grown in the cool saltwater bays of Japan, each pearl develops that famous mirror-like luster and rosy cream overtone that pearl lovers dream about. At nearly 10mm, these are substantial — the kind of pearl that becomes the centerpiece of a design.

Akoya pearls are nucleated with a round bead, which is why they grow so beautifully round. That high luster and near-perfect shape is what sets them apart from every other pearl on the market.
