This strand of dark black Japanese Akoya pearls makes an impressive gift. These Akoya pearls have excellent luster and smooth surface. Choose between AA+ and AAA Quality. The necklace is strung on black silk and knotted between each pearl. Finished with a beautiful 14K gold clasp.
The folks at Premium Pearl called me on the phone to speak directly with me to make sure my custom order was received correctly (which I sent by email) and they had understood everything I wanted. I appreciate this extra effort on their part in a world where great service is hard to find. Shipping was fast and everything was packed securely and insured. The quality of the pearls is wonderful and their pearl rating system helped me decide what to buy to meet my needs.
I haven't seen the pearls yet myself but the lady I sent them to was over the moon about them. A co-worker of hers happens to have some jewelery store experience and her comment was 'These are N-I-C-E. He must have spent some serious money on them'. She had a jeweler's loupe in her eye when she made the comment. Let's just keep the fact that they were WAY less from you than from a competitors store a secret between you and me, ok? :-)
