Assael Collection: 9.0–9.5 mm White Akoya Double Strand Necklace
NOO00016
9.0–9.5 mm double-strand akoya pearl and diamond necklace
Two gem-quality akoya strands (17 and 18 inches, nested) · platinum clasp · baguette diamonds (169 diamonds, 6.06 ctw) · 12.7 mm white South Sea button pearl clasp accent
This necklace features two nested strands of gem-quality akoya pearls measuring 9.0–9.5 mm. The pearls are perfectly round with exceptional luster, clean surfaces, and bright white bodycolor, characteristics that place them among the finest akoya pearls produced. The graduated double-strand format, finished at 17 and 18 inches, creates depth and visual richness while maintaining a refined, classical balance.
The necklace is secured with an architectural platinum clasp set with 169 baguette-cut diamonds totaling 6.60 carats. At the center of the clasp is a gem-quality white South Sea button pearl measuring 12.7 mm, selected for its luminous bodycolor, thick nacre, and strong luster. The contrast between the precision-cut diamonds, substantial South Sea pearl, and the uniform brilliance of the akoya strands elevates the piece firmly into high-jewelry territory.
This necklace reflects Assael’s mastery of pearl selection and proportion, uniting multiple pearl types and significant diamond work in a composition defined by restraint, symmetry, and enduring elegance.
Assael pearls are carried by fine retail jewelers throughout the United States. Out of respect for those long-standing partners, pieces from this collection are not offered through standard online checkout.
This necklace is part of a special Assael collection now held in our Los Angeles vault and offered through a limited, inquiry-only presentation. This opportunity reflects a level of access and value that has not previously been available within Assael’s 80-year history.
