Don't be surprised when you eyes stray to your wrist throughout the day while wearing this bracelet. The pearls will appear to glow, with colorful hues that vary in different light settings throughout the day. It's a phenomenon only found in the finest, top-graded hanadama akoya pearls. You will love wearing this bracelet.
The pearls in this bracelet measure 8.0-8.5 mm, a substantial yet easily wearable size. Every pearl is individually knotted on twin silk protecting them from rubbing and scratching, and the bracelet is finished with a solid 14 karat clasp with a safety catch.
Although akoya pearls are known to be classically white with a hint of rose, this is a look that is in influenced post-harvest. In order to achieve this desired color, they are put through a process known as pinking. This is a universal process that nearly every akoya pearl has gone through.
We believe, however, that this treatment is not always necessary! By partnering with producers in Japan, we are able to offer a selection of these rare pearls that is simply unrivaled. The pearls have each been hand-selected from freshly harvested pearls for their naturally white body colors and intense natural luster, with just a hint of rose. The pearls are so beautiful, they have skipped the traditional treatment process.
For decades we have been working with the same family-run farms in Japan. These families understand our rigorous standards and select these special pearls specifically for us. They ensure the pearls are only the top range of the hanadama category.
Once the natural-white hanadama pearls are selected, they are imported and graded by our Chief Creative Officer, Hisano. She examines every strand and every pearl to ensure the quality is always the same, rejecting any pearls that do not fall within the highest hanadama range. This is something you will recognize the moment you open the box. These pearls will take your breath away.
Accompanying your bracelet is a uniquely numbered and laminated pearl quality report prepared by the Pearl Science Laboratory of Japan, which not only describes in detail the beauty and perfection. it also certifies that there is no color treatment found in any these pearls.
