Presenting one of the most extraordinary Akoya pearl strands in existence. This is a 9.5-10.0 mm, Goddess (Tennyo) graded strand of Hanadama Akoya pearls, and we have just one available—the exact strand you see in the photos.
You may already be familiar with Hanadama, a term that represents the pinnacle of Akoya pearl quality. But did you know there's an even rarer, higher grade reserved for pearls that surpass all expectations? That’s where the Tennyo grading comes in—a true rarity among rarities.
Akoya pearls of this size are exceptionally uncommon, with most rarely exceeding 9.5 mm. This strand reaches an impressive 10 mm, a size rarely seen in the market.
Your strand will arrive hand-knotted on twin silk with a clasp of your choice, measuring approximately 18 inches in length, accompanied by a Pearl Science Laboratory report indicating the Tennyo grading.
While we cannot lengthen the strand, if you prefer a shorter length or even a choker style, our customer service team is happy to assist. We can remove a couple of pearls and include them with your necklace, or even use them to craft a custom pair of earrings—whatever suits your style best.
