Note: The Akoya pearl is known for its superb luster and its perfectly round shape. Akoyas also have a beautiful color consistency. Akoya are cultured pearls that are formed in the Pinctada Fucata oyster. These oysters are thriving in the hidden bays off the coast of Japan in the cold saltwater of the Pacific Ocean.
