10.0 mm+ AAA Akoya Pearl Strands

These 10.0 mm+ Akoya pearl strands represent the highest level of rarity and refinement in the world of Akoya pearls. Each necklace features perfectly round, AAA quality pearls with a bright white body color and soft pink overtone—the classic hallmark of fine Japanese Akoya.

Strands of this size and quality are exceedingly rare. All three are exceptionally clean, with a mirror-like finish and radiant luster, and each one has been matched and assembled into an elegant 18-inch necklace, hand-knotted on twin silk and finished with our classic white gold ball clasp.

We’re offering three individual strands, each available as an option within this listing:

• Strand A: 10.0–10.5 mm – $9,500 – Very clean, medium luster AAA
• Strand B: 10.0–10.8 mm – $12,800 – Very clean, high luster AAA
• Strand C: 10.0–10.5 mm – $14,400 – Very clean, very high luster AAA

Each strand is unique. We’re happy to provide detailed photos, lighting comparisons, or a virtual appointment so you can view them side by side with one of our pearl experts before making your final selection.

If you prefer a different clasp style or metal, simply leave a note at checkout—we’re happy to accommodate.

While the strands cannot be lengthened, we can accommodate custom shortening. If you’d like a closer fit, we can remove a few pearls and include them with your order—or use them to create a matching pair of earrings. Our team is here to tailor the piece to your personal style.
