33" Mikimoto Cultured Pearl & 18K Gold Opera Necklace
A gorgeous opera-length strand of 113 Mikimoto pearls with an 18K yellow gold clasp. The pearls have the magnificent luster and coloring expected of Mikimoto. The body color is cream with rosé overtones. The nacre has superb, bright luster. The surfaces are smooth with only slight natural blemishes. The grading quality is fine AA. The pearls are well-matched at 6.5--7.0 millimeters. The strand is completed with a classic Mikimoto 18K yellow gold bow clasp, set with a 3.8mm pearl. Mikimoto strands of this length are increasingly difficult to find. The strand is accompanied by a June 2008 written appraisal (GIA & NAJA) by a Mikimoto specialist appraiser conforming to the information noted above. The appraised replacement value is $10,950. Origin: Japan, ca. 1980. Condition: excellent, all original. Size: 34” long.
