Because pearls take time to harvest, if they are sold out or the sea water and breeding conditions affect the pearl harvest, there will be a shortage of certain sizes. Therefore, some styles will be temporarily out of stock. If you wish to place an order, please ask if the product is in stock.] Our pearls come from two major production areas, Japan and China, depending on their variety. They are all processed and made by professional jewelry workshops in China to ensure stable quality and exquisite craftsmanship, perfectly presenting the most natural luster and charm of pearls. 🔹 Made in Japan｜Akoya seawater pearls, Linen pearls Akoya pearls are the most representative variety of seawater pearls. They are mainly cultivated in Mie, Kumamoto, Ehime and other places in Japan, especially along the Seto Inland Sea. Akoya pearls are bred by**Pinctada fucata. Due to the small size of the shell, only one pearl can be produced in one shell, and it takes about 3 years of careful cultivation. Therefore, the output is relatively**, and the quality and price are also high. Akoya is a nucleated pearl with a very high roundness and bright and cool pearl. It is known as the "little light bulb" in the pearl world and is most favored by the high-end jewelry industry. The surface often has a natural texture of "orange peel". If you choose the selected grade (such as with a Japanese certificate), it will be almost flawless and the luster will be more translucent. The colors include cherry blossom pink, snow white pearls, blue-pink pearls, high cold blue light, aurora gold, queen color and other categories. There is also a rare Linen color system, which is an Akoya variant with natural pink and purple light, which is deeply loved by collectors. 🔹 Origin of China | Freshwater Cultured Pearls China is the world's largest producer of freshwater pearls, with production concentrated in Zhejiang, Hunan, Jiangsu and Anhui. Freshwater pearls are mainly cultivated with large clams such as the triangular clams. A single clams can produce dozens of pearls at the same time, and the output is much higher than that of seawater pearls. In the past decade, with the substantial upgrade of cultivation technology and screening standards, high-quality freshwater pearls have been able to approach the Akoya grade in terms of roundness, pearl skin firmness and gloss. Although they are cultivated without nuclei, top-grade freshwater pearls can be nearly round, have a warm and transparent luster, and a strong sheen. They are also more affordable, making them a very cost-effective choice for daily wear and designer jewelry. Whether you choose Akoya saltwater pearls or Chinese freshwater pearls, all products are made in our Chinese processing workshop to ensure that each piece meets jewelry grade standards from raw materials to craftsmanship details, adding elegance to your daily life. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54586131810_8f2fee49cc_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54585793436_ddd2e63e51_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54585797431_701d282b24_b.jpg Skin light description: Our AKOYA pearls are of medium-high light grade (you can see the light reflecting clearly and the shape of the lens) https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54612499788_2b9fe5fd2c_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54612491829_772f02995e_b.jpg About defect description: (In the pearl grading guide, the circled ones can be used as the reference standard for pearls in our stores) https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54586035868_cf01f90df0_b.jpg Our AKOYA pearls (including real Linen) are not certified flawless.

The comparison between the two is as follows 1. Origin & Cultivation Akoya Pearls Akoya pearls are a type of marine cultured pearls. They are mainly produced in Japan, but are also cultivated in Vietnam and China. Akoya pearls are cultivated from the Pinctada martensii oyster, which needs to grow in a sea environment with high salt content and complex ocean currents. Usually, one oyster only produces one pearl. The cultivation cycle of Akoya is relatively long, about 3-5 years. The annual production of Akoya is relatively low, accounting for about 10% of the total global pearl production (total seawater pearls). Akoya is the world's first commercially produced seawater cultured pearl, which began in the early 1900s. Seawater cultured pearls (including Akoya) are usually cultured with a bead, where a spherical bead nucleus is placed in the mother oyster. Freshwater Pearls Freshwater pearls are cultivated in freshwater environments such as lakes and rivers. The main production areas are lakes and rivers in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China, such as Zhejiang, Hunan, Jiangsu and other places. The main breeding mother of freshwater pearls is the cumingmei mussel, and the water quality of the growth environment is stable and controllable. One mussel can produce 10-40 or 30-50 pearls. Most freshwater pearls are formed naturally inside the mussel body without implanting a bead nucleus (mainly non-nucleus cultivation), which leads to their irregular shape. The cultivation cycle of freshwater pearls is relatively short, about 1-3 years. Freshwater pearls account for the vast majority of the world's total pearl production, about 95%. Freshwater cultured pearls are also called "Edison" pearls. Natural pearls and non-cultured pearls are almost entirely composed of nacre. 2. Appearance - Shape & Size Shape: Akoya pearls usually achieve a very round shape with a high roundness because they are implanted with round nuclei during culture and the relatively thin pearl layer helps to maintain their roundness. More than 90% of high-quality Akoya pearls are nearly perfectly round. The roundness of Akoya pearls available to consumers is usually good. Freshwater cultured pearls (mainly non-nucleus) are naturally formed without implanted nuclei, so their shapes tend to be oval or irregular. More than 80% of freshwater pearls on the market are oval, oblate or baroque, with a lower proportion of perfect round shapes. Due to non-nucleus culture, perfect round shapes are extremely rare in freshwater pearls, and near-round shapes are the highest roundness grade. Freshwater nucleus cultured pearls (Edison pearls) are close in size to seawater pearls, but less round. Size: Akoya pearls are small, with the average size of the pearls produced being between 6-9mm, and the commercial production being between 6-8mm or 5-8mm. 8mm is considered a good size, and the largest Akoya pearls can be up to 10-11mm. The larger the size of an Akoya pearl, the more valuable it is. Even a difference of 1 mm, such as 7-8mm versus 8-9mm Akoya pearls, can make a big difference in price. The diameter of freshwater cultured pearls usually ranges from 5-12mm. The size of nucleated freshwater pearls (Edison pearls) can reach 12-20mm. South Sea pearls are generally 10-16mm, and those over 16mm are relatively rare and precious. 3. Appearance - Color The main body color of Akoya pearls is white. Common white color combinations include pink, light blue-green, and light yellow-green, with pink being the most popular. Akoya also has blue (such as Linen) and yellow (such as Aurora Queen and Aurora Gold). Saltwater pearls (including Akoya) do not have purple. Pearl color comes from minerals or natural pigments secreted by the mother oyster. Freshwater cultured pearls are mainly white, pink, and lavender in color. Purple is a unique color of freshwater pearls, which comes from carotenoids in the cuming oyster. Nucleated freshwater pearls (Edison pearls) can appear dark purple or bronze. Freshwater pearls do not have pure black or rich gold. Some colors may have been bleached or dyed. 4. Appearance - Luster The luster of a pearl is one of the most important factors that determine its quality, and it is even its soul. The luster is related to the thickness and quality of the nacre. The stronger the luster, the more precious the pearl and the higher the price. The luster is the most important value factor of a pearl. Akoya pearls are known for their very high and beautiful luster, and are known as "little light bulbs in the world". Their luster is strong, and they can present sharp reflections and clear images. In the highest quality comparison, the mirror luster of Akoya can reach a higher level than South Sea pearls. High-quality products can reflect a human face. Freshwater cultured pearls have a relatively soft luster, mainly diffuse reflection, as soft as silk. Some high-quality freshwater pearls can achieve a good gloss, up to 70%-80% of seawater pearls. Some high-grade freshwater pearls can achieve "extremely strong light". Freshwater pearls have a shallow luster and a weak refraction effect. GUILD divides pearl luster into four levels: Very good, Good, Fair, and Poor. 5. Appearance - Surface Quality Naturally produced pearls usually have a small amount of flaws on their surface. The fewer flaws a pearl has, the better its quality. Absolutely perfect pearls are extremely rare and expensive. Akoya pearls have a relatively high smoothness, and most of the defects are tiny pinholes. Growth lines such as threads and depressions can be seen on the surface of freshwater pearls. The surface finish is divided into four levels: Very good (almost flawless), Good (small flaws), Fair (moderate flaws), and Poor (many flaws). The degree of flaws is one of the factors in judging the quality of pearls. 6. Physical Characteristics - Nacre Thickness & Durability The thickness of the pearl layer is an important factor in judging the quality of cultured pearls. The thickness of the pearl layer affects the beauty and durability of the pearl. If the pearl layer is too thin, it will affect the luster and may lose its luster or even appear "cracked" if it cannot withstand grinding. Akoya pearls have a thinner bead than other marine cultured pearl types. Usually between 0.15mm and 0.55mm. 0.5mm is considered thick for Akoya. In the GUILD standard, Akoya bead thickness greater than 0.4mm is considered good quality. Akoya is most sensitive to bead thickness. Akoya's thinner bead helps it have a more rounded shape. Freshwater cultured pearls (mainly non-nucleated ones) usually have a nacre of 0.3 to 0.8 mm. The internal structure of non-nucleated freshwater pearls is almost entirely made of nacre. Freshwater pearls may gradually lose their luster due to friction after long-term wear, and their lifespan is relatively short. Nucleated freshwater pearls (Edison) have a thicker nacre of 0.8-3 mm. Generally speaking, the pearl layer of seawater pearls is thicker and has a longer lifespan. The pearl layer of seawater pearls (such as South Sea pearls and Tahitian pearls) is usually in the range of 0.8-3mm, while the pearl layer of South Sea pearls can reach 2MM, which is 60 to 100 times that of Akoya. 7. Daily Wear & Suitability Akoya pearls are very popular for everyday wear due to their high luster, roundness, and classic white color. Suitable for versatile necklace styles, they can show elegance, nobility, and classic temperament. They are also suitable for formal occasions, weddings, and business gifts. Freshwater cultured pearls are a popular choice for daily commuting and leisure wear because of their affordable price (thanks to China's large production and breeding methods) and various colors (especially special-shaped pearls). High-quality freshwater pearls (extremely bright, nearly round, and very slightly flawed) are not much different from saltwater pearls to the naked eye, and are cost-effective and very suitable for daily wear. Suitable for students, newcomers in the workplace, or special-shaped pearl lovers. If you have a limited budget and mainly wear them daily, high-quality freshwater pearls are a good choice. From a purely practical perspective, there is little difference in the use experience between high-quality freshwater pearls and saltwater pearls.
