14k Yellow Gold Akoya Cultured Pearl 6.5-7mm Necklace and Stud Earring Set

(33 customer reviews)

Project radiance and sophistication in this gorgeous Akoya cultured pearl necklace and stud earring set. Lustrous round Akoya cultured pearls, with a diameter range of 6.5 to 7mm, are individually knotted on silk cord to form the 18-inch necklace. This classic pearl strand is finished with a fancy filigree clasp, in radiant and durable 14 karat yellow gold. The matching stud earrings also feature round 6.5-7mm Akoya cultured pearls, with 14 karat yellow gold posts and backings.
These are fine quality round pearls, well-matched for size, shape and color, with light blemishing and a beautiful deep luster. Their color is white-rosé--in other words, white but with a slight rosy hue. Akoya cultured pearls are produced in salt-water mollusks in Japan and China. They were the first type of pearl to be cultured, back in the 1920s, and remain the most popular and classic choice for pearl strands. Akoya cultured pearls are prized for their smoothness, roundness, and gorgeous deep luster. Though they may look similar to freshwater cultured pearls, when the two are placed side-by-side, the Akoya pearl's superior qualities are clear.
A traditional pearl strand and matching pearl stud earrings are a versatile addition to any woman's fine jewelry collection. They will complement everything from a daytime professional outfit to an evening cocktail dress, and their timeless beauty ensures they will look as classy and elegant years from now as they do today.

BEAUTIFUL PEARLS Jan 21, 2010
The necklace and earrings are absolutely beautiful!! I have been looking for an Akoya pearl necklace, that is affordable, for a long time and finally I found one...plus earrings! I cannot believe that they cost so little...I also brought a set for my daughter(for her 3 year old son to give her for Christmas). I highly recommend this Akoya cultured pearl necklace and stud earrings set!

Loved at first, but then... Jan 16, 2010
The pearls were lovely, and matched well. A lovely color, and with only minor imperfections. I was so happy at first and tossed all the packaging, sure I would not regret this purchase. Then, on the third time wearing the necklace the cord that threaded the pearls frayed and tore, leaving it unable to be worn, or returned. I was sorely disappointed. Perhaps it was just my item, but be aware when purchasing. I still think the pearls were a steal, and good quality, but I'm upset that I have to take it to a jeweler now to have it repaired, incurring more costs.

Clueless man buying for his beautiful wife Jan 13, 2010
Goal: get her a gift SHE wants. That's a thought, huh, guys? The trouble is we get anxiety, because it's not something we know much about. So I just talked with her and listened and learned ...about her. With some reading and a little shopping, this chicken was willing to buck up.

My wife says, "I love them!" Yay, a big move on my part. I was scared of buying this (especially online), because firstly I know nothing about jewelry, and my wife used to work as Borsheim's Fine Jewelry. I did do a lot of research before buying these... but you know, at the price, I was very willing to be brave.

Tried getting her something she'll wear at least once. Guess what? She wears it all time time! Yippy for us!

"As long as somebody doesn't get up in your face, they won't notice the imperfections." I have a "for real" wife, who understands... where they come from. They're natural. Some are going to be more perfect than others. But we can't afford thousands on jewelry.

This goes with practically anything she wears and it really shows how beautiful she is. Just now, we listened to "What a Beautiful Mess" by Jason Mraz, highlighting our growing together over this brave lil' click at Amazon... Silly, ok a bit. A few tears on her side, but some man tears on my side. So guys, sure beats buying her a bowling ball, toe-socks, or another DVD for a stocking stuffer.

Why 5 stars? For the price, it's perfect, so 5 stars.

Wife couldn't be happier Jan 11, 2010
The most important part - my wife loved this set. From my perspective - the pearl size is right on target, the weight is great making the necklace lay nice, and any blemishes (I didn't see them) are minor and not noticed unless you inspect under good light. Well worth the cost.
