8.5-9.0 mm AA+ White Akoya Pearl Necklace

Bold yet classically elegant, this 8.5-9.0 mm AA+ quality white akoya pearl necklace represents the upper end of akoya pearl sizing—making it an ideal choice for those who want a more commanding look while maintaining timeless refinement.

Each pearl is sourced from the cold coastal waters of Japan and carefully selected for round shape, clean surface, and soft, glowing luster. This size is considerably more rare in akoya pearls, and it offers a substantial feel and appearance without losing the delicate beauty the variety is known for.

The 18-inch necklace, known as the princess length, sits just below the collarbone and remains our most popular choice. To help you compare how it wears alongside other lengths, we’ve included a photo of a model wearing the 16-, 18-, and 22-inch strands side by side.

Each strand is made to order and finished with a solid 14-karat gold clasp and safety hook. This allows us to accommodate custom lengths—just contact our support team and we’ll be happy to create the perfect fit for you.

We’ve worked with the same trusted family-run pearl farms in Japan for decades—relationships that allow us to select pearls within the finest range of the AA+ grade. This necklace is a celebration of scale, quality, and classic craftsmanship—perfect for those who want something truly special.
