Good To Know

The full story

A bright white pearl piece made to look polished without feeling overdone.

Akoya is the classic white pearl most people picture when they think of fine pearls — bright, round, and mirror-like. Each pearl is selected for clean luster, then finished properly with solid gold.

Best for: Gifts, everyday polish, and dressed-up occasions.

Why choose Akoya?

Akoya pearls are loved for their sharp, mirror-like luster and round shape. Compared with freshwater, Akoya usually has a brighter, cleaner shine — the traditional fine-pearl look.

Care notes

Pearls are organic gemstones, so treat them gently. Put them on after perfume, hairspray, and lotion. After wearing, wipe them with a soft cloth and store them flat in a pouch or box, away from harder jewellery.

Service-backed piece

Your piece is backed by Prestige Pearl's service and care. Genuine pearls are meant to last, and proper care keeps them secure, clean, and wearable for years.

Is Akoya the right pearl for you?

Akoya is the classic choice for a bright white pearl strand. Freshwater is usually better for everyday value, Tahitian for darker statement pearls, and South Sea for larger luxury pearls.
