Pearls are produced by Akoya oysters over a long period of time. Some of them may be deformed (not spherical) or have uneven color, but this is part of the charm of Akoya oysters created by nature, so we do not replace them for the above reasons.
At our company, the customer selects the Akoya oyster from which the pearl will be extracted from among several Akoya oysters. This style allows you to enjoy seeing what kind of pearls will come out.
