Akoya grading

What AAA means on this strand

Our akoya grades consider luster, shape, surface, nacre and matching together, and luster is what they turn on. There is no universal akoya standard, so AAA means different things at different companies and the letters alone are not worth much. Ours is an internal standard.

  • ABright luster that goes hazy at the edges. Round to near round, 75 to 85% clean, with thin nacre.
  • AA+Bright, with the edge of a reflection nearly sharp. Round, 85 to 95% clean, with medium nacre.
  • AAAThis piece. Bright and sharp. Round, 95% clean or better, with visibly thick nacre and close matching.
  • HanadamaCertified in Japan by an independent laboratory, then selected by us from the upper end of that range. Hanadama is a quality range rather than a single level, so two certified strands can differ considerably.

Write your name in the stars and your love in the sand with our new Luna and Terra Collection. New designs set to make a lasting impression.

This necklace is crafted with five lustrous 7.5-8.0 mm AAA Akoya Pearls on a 14k gold fine cable chain with lobster clasp closure.

Akoya pearls are known for their perfect round shape and unmistakable luster unique to 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

For decades we have been working with the same family-run farms in Japan. These families understand our rigorous grading standards and select pearls specifically for us. They ensure the pearls we offer fall within the top range of the AAA category. This is something we know you’ll appreciate the moment you open the box.

Before you decide

We can show you the pearls first

The pearls are here in our Los Angeles office. Before you buy anything, we will photograph the exact strand we would use for your necklace and send it to you.

We knot to order, so you may see the pearls before they have been strung and clasped.

What you will see

Photographs of the exact strand we would use for your necklace.

We hold the exact pearls we photograph for you for 24 hours while you decide.

We usually reply within one business day, Monday through Friday.

The same on everything we sell

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.

Reviews

Just Beautiful!

"I was looking for a necklace to match a pair of earrings I previously purchased from Pearl Paradise, and this one turned out to be perfect. The tone and luster are just right, making it an ideal complement to my earrings. I'm very happy with both the impressive quality of the product and the excellent service. I’ll definitely keep coming back—thank you!"

Beautiful necklace! I love it

"Beautiful necklace! I love it :)"

Elegant and fashionable

"I have taken to silk and pearl lately. It turns out these two materials are a perfect match. I didn't want to go with a pearl strand or a pearl pendant. This five-pearl white gold necklace offers a very good in-between. It works wonderfully with my silk blouses, but it is not limited to silk. It works with many types of clothes."

— Fiona Y. (5/5)

Beautiful Necklace!

"The one thing I like about this necklace is that the pearls are larger. I purchased the 18” adjustable to 20”. It’s absolutely beautiful, I purchased the yellow gold."
