16.0–18.8 mm round white South Sea pearl and diamond necklace
25 round white South Sea pearls · 44.60 momme · approx. 18 inches · platinum and 18K white gold diamond ball clasp (72 diamonds, 6.44 ctw)
This is the finest strand of South Sea pearls Assael has ever assembled, and to our knowledge the finest available anywhere in the world today. Twenty-five perfectly matched round white South Sea pearls measuring 16.0 to 18.8 mm, with a total weight of 44.60 momme.
Round white South Sea pearls at this size are extraordinarily rare. Matching twenty-five of them into a single strand, at the highest grade of color, luster, and surface, is a feat almost no inventory in the world could produce. These pearls score at the very top of every category, selected over years for a consistency and refinement that is essentially unrepeatable at this scale.
What sets a strand like this apart, beyond its size, is the quality of its luster and the depth of its overtone, the living glow of each pearl and the way the light moves across the whole. On this strand those qualities reach a level we have not seen matched. It is the kind of thing that has to be seen to be understood.
Finished with a substantial platinum and 18K white gold diamond ball clasp set with 72 natural diamonds totaling 6.44 carats.
For a piece of this significance, we welcome you to view it in person, at our Los Angeles vault or by private virtual appointment, and to see firsthand why it stands apart.
A museum-caliber strand, matched over many years and impossible to recreate. The single finest piece in the Assael Collection, held in our Los Angeles vault. One of a kind.

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.

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
