Jewellery & Watch News
When we think of pearl jewellery, there is always one brand that comes to mind first: Mikimoto. Since 1893, Mikimoto has been decorating the necks, wrists and ears of women with the finest examples of pearl jewellery in the world. To own a piece of Mikimoto jewellery is to own a piece of perfect luxury that reflects the purity and mysteries of the ocean.
Founder of Mikimoto, Kokichi Mikimoto, started his dream by creating the world’s first cultured pearl. He was not only an artist but a scientist who grew concerned about the extinction of natural pearl producing oysters. He wanted to combat this threat while also fulfilling his dream of creating his own collections of jewellery. Instead of taking natural pearls from the ocean, he began to grow pearls within his own protected oyster beds.
"My dream is to adorn the necks of all women around the world with pearls." - Kokichi Mikimoto, Founder
Today, Mikimoto continues to dress their stunning collections of jewellery with the finest quality cultured pearls the world has ever seen. The brand has become a world leader in design and innovation, becoming synonymous with superior quality at every stage. Some of their current jewellery collections include Morning Dew, Classic, Les Petales Vendome, Les Petales de Ginza, Fortune Leaves and A World of Creativity but one of their key collection that we want to look into today is Pearls in Motion.
The Mikimoto Pearls in Motion jewellery collection provides an affordable and diverse way of wearing pearl jewellery. Each design provides an infinite number of ways to be worn with long chained necklaces that can be wrapped multiple times around the neck or left long and free to flow down your outfit. We particularly love this Mikimoto Pearls in Motion 18ct White Gold necklace beautifully decorated with diamonds and 7mm white Akoya pearls. The chain is embellished by a gorgeous diamond set rondel which allows you to adjust the style of the white gold pearl necklace around your neck.
Another beautiful example from the Mikimoto Pearls in Motion jewellery collection is this set of Mikimoto Pearls In Motion 18ct Yellow Gold drop earrings. These elegant additions have been crafted from exquisite 18 carat yellow gold and embellished with 0.14ct round diamonds and four 7mm Akoya cultured pearls. The delicate chains of these Mikimoto earrings allow the pearls to hang gracefully from your ear and curve elegantly against your neck for a sultry and sophisticated finish.
At C W Sellors, we have an incredible range of Mikimoto jewellery to choose from including a vast selection of Mikimoto Pearls in Motion necklaces, earrings and bracelets.
