This is a 7.5-8mm gem quality akoya strand. Any strand at this level of quality requires tens of thousands of pearls sorted in order to get even a single matching strand. 
 
This size bracket is the last before Akoya pearls experience a significant jump in rarity due to the physical size of the mollusk that produces the pearl. 
 
MOLINE Gem quality represents less than .05% of all Akoya production -- oftentimes, these strands become available in miniscule quantities that MOLINE can purchase only one or two of any size per year; any Akoya pearls in singles or pairs at this quality represent something special -- full necklaces are a true heirloom treasure. 
 
Price includes stringing and a standard oval clasp of your color metal choice in 18K gold. For alternative clasp options or other questions please get in touch.
