What is the Assael Collection?

Assael held the place in America that Mikimoto holds in Japan. For more than 80 years it assembled the finest collection of pearl jewelry brought together in the United States, supplying the most prestigious jewelers in the country.

We acquired the Assael Collection in full and now hold it in our Los Angeles vault. For the first time, it is offered directly to the public, piece by piece. Each piece was matched and selected over decades and cannot be replaced.

Want additional photos, video, or a private virtual viewing of this piece? We're glad to help.

15.0–16.9 mm round Tahitian pearl and diamond necklace
50 round Tahitian natural-color pearls · 71.4 momme · approx. 32.5 inches · 18K white gold diamond clasp (130 diamonds, 3.58 ctw)

This is among the finest Tahitian strands Assael ever assembled, and to our knowledge there is no comparable strand available anywhere today. Fifty round, gem-quality Tahitian pearls measuring 15.0–16.9 mm, with an extraordinary total weight of 71.4 momme, strung to a double length of approximately 32.5 inches.

The pearls show deep peacock color with strong, mirror-like luster. Peacock is the most prized color in Tahitian pearls and is rarely found in large sizes, and almost never matched across fifty pearls at this scale. A strand combining this color, this size, and this length sits at the very top of what the species can produce.

The necklace is finished with an 18K white gold clasp set with 130 natural diamonds totaling 3.58 carats.

A museum-caliber strand, matched over years and impossible to recreate. One of a kind. A strand like this is not assembled twice.
