Tennyo pearls, just the name, are full of poetry and romance. In reality, the pearls are even more captivating with their unique luster and color. The unmistakable rainbow iridescence that emanates from these pearls is unlike any other type of pearl.
This strand of pearls measures 8.0/10.0/12.0 mm in three size. This is considered ungraduated, and one of the most popular size we carry. The necklace is strung to 18 inches, which falls at or just below the collarbone. This is referred to as the princess length - the classic and most popular. It pairs well with any outfit.
The necklace is finished with a solid 14 karat clasp that features a safety hook so your pearls will always be safe.
"Tennyo" is the name given to the highest-grade Akoya pearls by the Japanese pearl industry. It represents the highest quality and strictest evaluation standards of this type of pearls. They usually appear in soft white or slightly pink tones, with beautiful gloss and iridescence on the surface, giving them a sense of elegance and nobility.
They are characterized by having a glossiness of more than 90 points among flower beads and having three interference colors (pink/cyan or blue/white) at the same time.
For decades we have been working with the same family-run farms in Japan. These families understand our rigorous standards and select Tennyo pearls specifically for us. They ensure these pearls are only the top range of the Tennyo category.
Once the tennyo 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 up to par. She rejects any pearls that do not fall within the highest tennyo range. She has the best eye in the business and loves what she does. This is something you will recognize the moment you open the box. These pearls will take your breath away.
Our Akoya Pearl Necklace are certified by authoritative organizations.
