Kokichi Mikimoto is the original founder of cultured pearls, and his contribution to magnificent jewelry is nearly unmatched. Since his discovery in 1893, Mikimoto pearl jewelry has become the epitome of classic elegance, style, and sophistication. By creating sparkling Akoya pearls and South Sea pearls in multiple colors and pairing each piece with 18K gold or platinum settings, he used these jewels to represent his determination for perfection and passionate love of the ocean.

Mikimoto offers the finest quality pearl jewelry in styles ranging from timeless to contemporary – from dangling gold chains paired with beautiful pearls and bubble earrings with clusters of pearls and diamonds to unique black South Sea pearls in rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and pendants. From graduation gifts to wedding jewelry, Mikimoto pearl jewelry is a perfect choice for any occasion that calls for elegance and beauty.

Mikimoto’s pearl necklaces have been adored by all genders across all generations and are designed to bring out your internal goddess. Pearls can easily transition from day to night or casual to a black-tie affair. These designs pair sophistication and modern ideals with the dedication, care, and compassion of more than a century of impeccable craftsmanship.

As the pearl brand continues to strive to achieve Kokichi Mikimoto’s dream of supplying women around the world with pearl jewelry, new styles and old favorites continue to make history nearly 130 years after Mikimoto created them. One of its bigger goals is to protect and preserve the ocean to support the sustainability of the environment.
