For people who have seen Akoya pearl necklace, it is hard not to be impressed by its unique pearl luster. The rainbow-like luster and iridescence after the rain is beautiful. Even in dim places, high-quality Akoya can still produce a sense of brilliance by reflecting weak light, so many people call it a “small light bulb”.
Among all pearls, Akoya’s annual production is relatively rare, and high-quality pearls are even rarer. There are not many sea areas suitable for the growth of Akoya mother-of-pearl, such as water temperature, temperature difference, and water quality. With the increasing pollution, the suitable sea areas are becoming less and less, not to mention that one mother-of-pearl can only breed one Akoya every 3-4 years. However, the freshwater mother-of-pearl can give birth to dozens of pearls at a time. In addition, in Japan, the main production area, people do not blindly pursue output but pay more attention to quality, which makes Akoya very rare.
