A timeless piece of jewelry should always straddle an edge: It should have one foot in the past and the other firmly rooted in the present. Our new Cradle Collection Japanese akoya pearl pendant is a perfect example of just such a timeless piece.
It’s sleek, minimalist design is a nod to a jewelry past where nothing was superfluous, where every part of the design had a function; while it’s streaking extended tear-drop shape is a forward-looking interpretation on a present where what was once out of reach is now more accessible than ever.
Akoya pearls are known for their perfect round shape and unmistakable luster unique to akoya pearls grown in the cold coastal waters of Japan. The finest pearls from this region are known for their mirror-like luster and smooth surfaces – qualities you will clearly see the moment you open the box.

What you can count on before you look at a single pearl
We do our own buying
We do not outsource our buying, and we do not pick from someone else's catalog. Every pearl we sell is sourced, inspected and bought by us, from the growers, producers and dealers we have worked with for decades.
Made in Los Angeles
Matched and finished by our own team rather than pulled off a shelf, and still out the door within one business day.
Graded to our own standard
There is no universal pearl grading standard. Ours is internal, applied the same way across everything we sell, and luster is what it turns on.

Elegant Infinity Akoya Pendant
"This pendant is just the perfect shape and size to make a statement in a very elegant, sophisticated way. I purchased the rose gold version to complement a pair of trillion akoya earrings I got from Pearl Paradise also in rose gold. The shape of the pendant and the adjustable chain make it a great piece to wear with a deep V-neck dress, or shirt, or even with a turtleneck. It is very versatile and adds just the right kind of elegance and style to any outfit - be it work, evening, or even more casual attire."
Wonderful Quality and Value
"The pendant is substantially constructed and beautifully put together. Both the gold work and the pearl stand out. I bought the pendant as a gift for a daughter. She loves it."
Beautiful pendant
"This was a college graduation gift. The graduate loved it, and wore preceding days and during graduation. Just as pictured, lovely design, quality pearl and substantial gold surround. Purchased in yellow gold with upgraded box chain that worked very well for this pendant. Nice gift packaging."
Nice pearl.
"Works well."
Beautiful Quality!
"I ordered/received the cradle pendant necklace, and it is beautiful! The quality of the necklace and pearl itself is stunning. I have worked at a fine jewelry store for over 10 years, and can tell that this piece is excellent quality. I am so excited to give this to my mother as a Christmas gift. I know she is going to love it!"
