Natural Untreated Silver-Grey Tone, Mirror-Like Lustre with Exceptional Clarity, Original Piece from Japan's International Jewellery Show! Akoya pearls are saltwater pearls grown from Pinctada fucata oysters, initially cultivated in Japan. Since the 1920s, they have been a global symbol of beauty and elegance, highly coveted and steadily increasing in price. This pendant features a carefully selected, high-quality Japanese Madama Akoya pearl, measuring approximately 7.5–8mm in diameter. Smooth, full-bodied, and perfectly symmetrical, the pearl showcases the signature natural silver-grey hue unique to Madama Akoya pearls—completely untreated and free from any dyeing or enhancement. A subtle cool-toned blue sheen dances across its surface, adding a modern, avant-garde edge that pairs beautifully with the pendant’s metallic aesthetic. The surface is remarkably clean and nearly flawless, with a mirror-smooth finish that reflects light with precision. Aside from one minuscule natural dimple on the reverse side—barely noticeable to the eye—the pearl is immaculate. Its high clarity even allows for faint facial reflections under direct light. The lustre is vivid and sharply defined, reminiscent of moonlight cast over a still lake—deep, luminous, and serene. This level of radiant depth and visual crispness is the hallmark of only the finest saltwater pearls, making it the perfect centre. Notable features: Pearl Origin: Japan Pearl Type: Saltwater Cultured Akoya Pearl Pearl Quality: AAAAA++ Pearl Size: 7.6mm Pearl Colour: Silver-Grey Pearl Shape: 99% Round Pearl Lustre: Very High++++++ Pendant Size: 28.5x27mm (Including the Pearl) Necklace Length: 46.8cm/18.25" (Including 5.8cm Adjustable Extension) Material: S925 Sterling Silver MSRP: 470.00 This necklace is a fully finished Japanese-made piece, sourced directly from the Japan International Jewellery Exhibition, with both the pendant and pearl expertly mounted in Japan. The design centres around a sculptural four-petal motif inspired by the form of a blooming flower or gentle wings in mid-flight—delicate, dimensional, and full of quiet grace. Each petal is elegantly curved and rendered in solid S925 sterling silver, finished with Japan’s signature dual-texture technique: a finely brushed satin surface paired with smooth, polished inner edges. This interplay of textures lends a sophisticated depth and a soft glimmer that shifts gently with the light. This pendant omits gemstone embellishments, allowing the subtle beauty of the metalwork to take full focus. The petals form a harmonious X-shape, organically balanced and flowing with an almost calligraphic softness. Suspended from the base is a single luminous silver Akoya pearl, secured with a minimal mount that allows the gem to float freely beneath the floral form—bringing a sense of weightless movement and understated refinement. The necklace is completed with a high-polish S925 chain, fitted with a secure spring-ring clasp and a stamped extension tail for easy length adjustment. The result is a graceful, modern luxury jewellery that fuses botanical inspiration with classic Japanese minimalism—elegant, refined, and beautifully unique. Your purchase comes complete with a complimentary jewellery box, perfect for gift-giving or safekeeping this treasure. ?Styling Suggestions Occasions? 1.

Their formation process, taking place in nature, cannot be controlled by human intervention, meaning that the surface of pearls may exhibit some natural imperfections (growth lines, marks, small pits). This is a completely normal occurrence. Please understand that the level of these natural flaws directly impacts the price of the pearl – my pursuit is always the highest quality within each price range. Each piece of pearl jewellery at StarlitPearls has been carefully selected with the utmost attention to detail. While I strive to capture the natural imperfections of the pearls in photos, sometimes the lustrous glow may conceal certain blemishes, making them less visible in pictures. I always aim to provide a clear and accurate description of the quality and characteristics in each product listing. However, please understand that quality is often reflected in the price, and achieving a flawless appearance may require a higher budget – my pursuit is always the highest quality within each price range. Thank you for your understanding and acceptance of the unique, albeit imperfect, characteristics of natural pearls, and I invite you to treasure this unique beauty. 2) StarlitPearlsUK offers a 14-day return policy for all products, no questions asked.

Gentle Care: Pearls are delicate gems that require careful handling. Avoid contact with chemicals, including hairspray, perfume, and cosmetics, as they can damage the pearl's surface. It's also recommended to remove your pearls when sleeping, bathing, or washing your face to prevent potential damage. ? Cleaning: Clean your pearl jewellery with a soft, damp cloth after each wear. This helps to remove any body oils or residue that may have accumulated. Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners, as they can scratch the pearl's surface. ? Storage: Always store pearls separately from other jewellery to prevent scratches. A soft pouch or a separate compartment in your jewellery box is ideal. ? Last on, First off: Make pearls the last thing you put on and the first thing you take off. This helps to limit their exposure to damaging elements and substances. Remember, with proper care, your pearls can last a lifetime and even be passed down as a treasured heirloom. Treat them kindly and they will continue to bring you joy for many years to come.
