Cultured Pearl Strand
An Introduction
“The pearl is the queen of gems and the gem of queens.”
– Anonymous Since antiquity, pearls have been highly
sought after and treasured for their
understated beauty and elegance. Created
by entirely natural processes, pearls of the
very highest quality were once exceedingly
rare. It was our founder, Kokichi Mikimoto,
who, in the closing years of the 19th century,
developed the unique cultivation process
that is now used worldwide to create almost
all pearls sold today. Mikimoto White South Sea
Cultured Pearl Ring
In order to do justice to his beautiful
new creations, Mr Mikimoto despatched
his craftsman to learn from the greatest
jewellery designers across the world.
The skills they learned were matched
to traditional Japanese strengths of
workmanship and design purity to create
the first bespoke Mikimoto jewellery
collection in 1899. Today, Mikimoto – still a family-run
business – is the undisputed world leader,
selling only the highest-quality cultured
pearls. The Japanese Akoya Cultured
Pearls are, even now, grown in the farms
seeded by Mr Mikimoto in Ago Bay, Japan
more than a century ago.
Just five percent of those pearls possess
the shape, lustre, colour and surface
perfection needed to be included in our
collections. Which is why our pieces are
in demand the world over; their owners
safe in the knowledge that there really is
no finer pearl than a Mikimoto pearl.
