| Mikimoto
- In 1893, after years of experimentation, the legendary Kokichi
Mikimoto succeeded in producing the world's first cultured pearl. His
tireless work over the ensuing decades led to the evolution of cultured
pearls of many varieties, transforming his fledgling jewelry store into
the world's most famous pearl dynasty. For more than 100 years, the Mikimoto name has been synonymous with superior quality at every stage... from the selection of the finest materials to the design and workmanship of the finished jewelry. Only the top 3 to 5 percent of the cultured pearls harvested annually in Japan meet the Mikimoto standards of excellence·the standards that set Mikimoto cultured pearls apart. |
