One lovely 16 inch strand of genuine saltwater
Akoya cultured pearls!
Bidding is for the whole temporary strand of approximately 70 x 6mm pearls!
These pearls have 5mm seeds with approximately 1mm of nacre.
(Multiple strands look absolutely stunning together!)
Important information: Please note that these are wholesale strands which have been
sorted generally for colour, size and quality. You can expect a rejection rate of about
10 (ten) pearls per wholesale strand. These are not top quality Mikimoto Akoyas
(which sell for US$500 plus each!) but good quality, great value wholesale pearls requiring
a bit of sorting. Enjoy!
Pearls are fragile! Handle with care!
