Imposing in scale and breathtaking in rarity, this 9.5–10.0 mm silver-blue baroque akoya pearl necklace represents the absolute upper limit of what Japanese akoya pearl farming can produce. These pearls are exceedingly scarce, making each strand a collector’s treasure.
The silver-blue color occurs naturally, the result of a rare biological event in which trace proteins become trapped between the pearl’s nucleus and nacre during development. The outcome is a permanent hue with soft, silvery overtones and a cool, ethereal glow—entirely organic and wholly unique to each pearl.
Each pearl in this strand is baroque in shape, with its own organic form and character. Expertly matched for harmony in tone, luster, and rhythm, these strands are available in limited 16- and 18-inch lengths. Every necklace is hand-knotted on twin silk in our Los Angeles studio and finished with a solid 14 karat white gold clasp and safety hook for both beauty and secure wear.
Silver-blue akoya pearls in this size range are so rare that only a handful of strands are ever assembled. Most years, we are unable to source enough pearls of this caliber to produce even one complete necklace—making this offering truly exceptional.
This is a strand for the devoted collector or the discerning wearer who seeks the rarest expressions of natural elegance. It’s a piece that speaks softly, but with unmistakable significance.
