Sizing will add approximately two weeks to the ship time and rings that have been sized by JTV are eligible for returns but rings sized by another jeweler are non-returnable.
What makes the Akoya pearl so lovely? Many people believe that it has to do with the depth of the waters ... the cooler temperatures ... at which the Pinctada imbricata (the Akoya pearl oyster) thrives.
This strand of cultured, Akoya pearls exhibits that luster so desired and so loved by pearl aficionados everywhere. However, the cultured Akoyas in this strand are also exceptional for their natural, silvery-platinum color.
We love the nuances of color in this strand. They are not made to match perfectly ... they are like a family of cultured pearls, with similarities of color that ensure they are clearly “related” ... yet with whispers of differences of shade and shape that make every, single, cultured Akoya pearl on this strand distinctive. We think you will adore the subtleties that make this strand so compelling.
Finally, we feel we must note that these cultured Akoya beauties are approximately 8mm in size. That Pinctada imbricata is a small fellow, as pearl oysters go, and 8mm is considered an impressive size for an Akoya.
In fact, impressive is perhaps the word that best describes your new necklace – it’s 18 inches of lustrous, pearly, beauty. Congratulations on a great find!
