Akoya Pearls are cultured saltwater pearls
Pearl grained Akoya oysters (Pinctada Fucata)
are suspended in protective cages in the sea and are regularly
monitored to ensure that their environment is maximized for perfect growth
All measurements are done by the width of the bead. Our pearls are all strung on temporary strands and should be re-strung to insure security while wearing. Please see our selection of Carded Bead Cords to find a color cord right for your selection of pearls.
