The Best Akoya pearls hail from Japan, where they are cultured. More expensive than freshwater pearls, Japanese Akoya pearls are the epitome for the classic quality and grace of what pearl necklaces should be. The cold Japanese waters help to create a more lustrous pearl than warmer Chinese waters. Chinese Akoya Cultured pearls take only half as much time to grow but when harvested they don't have the tight crystalline structure that gives Japanese pearls its unique surface.
