What AAA means on this strand

Our grades consider luster, shape, surface and matching together, and luster is what they turn on. For surface we describe what the piece actually looks like rather than quoting a clean percentage. At these sizes a piece will almost always carry some marking, and a number cannot tell you whether that marking matters.

  • ALow to medium luster, noticeable variation from the stated shape, and marking readily visible across the piece.
  • AA+Medium to high luster with some variation in shape. More marking, sometimes accepted for the beauty of the piece as a whole.
  • AA+/AAAVery high luster, closely conforming to its stated shape. Most pearls very clean, with a few carrying more. The combined grade describes variation in surface, not mixed luster or an inconsistently matched strand.
  • AAAThis piece. Very high luster, closely conforming to its stated shape, clean overall with any marking minor enough not to draw the eye.

Select Gem A selection that sits outside this scale rather than above it. Not a tier we sort into, but a collection built over time: exceptional natural color, shape and surface at once, with any marking slight or sitting where a setting will cover it. Collected one pearl at a time, then assembled pearl by pearl.

11.1–14.9 mm round multicolor South Sea and Tahitian pearl and diamond necklace
61 round pearls · white and golden South Sea and Tahitian · 47.7 momme · approx. 32.75 inches · 18K yellow gold pavé diamond ball clasp (86 diamonds, 1.75 ctw)

A double-length multicolor rope of sixty-one perfectly round pearls measuring 11.1 to 14.9 mm, running approximately 32.75 inches and totaling 47.7 momme. What makes it distinctive is the mix of three pearl types in a single strand, white South Sea, golden South Sea, and dark Tahitian, each chosen for radiant luster, clean surfaces, and precise roundness.

Blending three pearl types from different regions into one harmonious strand is an unusual thing to pull off, and the result is a continuous progression of white, gold, and dark color across nearly thirty-three inches. The interplay along the length comes alive as the rope drapes and the light moves. At this length it can be worn full, doubled, or knotted.

Finished at approximately 32.75 inches with an 18K yellow gold pavé diamond ball clasp set with 86 natural diamonds totaling 1.75 carats.

A one-of-a-kind strand from the Assael Collection, held in our Los Angeles vault. Once it sells, it will not be available again.

Buying from us

This piece is one of a kind

It has no reviews of its own because only one exists. These are reviews of Pearl Paradise from people who bought something else.

I ordered a string of pearls, and to my disappointment, they were too short. No problem. Paradise Pearls was wonderful, exchanged my string and I ordered a longer string. I am SO very pleased with them and love wearing them.

June H. · Verified buyer

Loved the human contact when I asked for photos, shipping was delivered on time and the pearl necklace is gorgeous. Definitely buying more from pearl paradise.

Melissa M. · Verified buyer
