TASAKI is one of Japan's most respected fine-jewellery maisons, internationally recognised for its expertise in pearl cultivation, selection and craftsmanship. Particularly celebrated for its Japanese Akoya pearls, TASAKI combines exceptional lustre, refined surface quality and distinctive natural colour variations to create jewellery of enduring elegance.
This TASAKI Akoya Pearl Strand features approximately 7mm pearls with an enchanting combination of silver-grey, blue and delicate mint overtones. Unlike traditional white Akoya strands, its cool-toned palette creates a beautifully contemporary interpretation of classic Japanese pearl jewellery.
Measuring approximately 43cm in length, the necklace is finished with a distinctive double-Akoya pearl clasp, adding a thoughtful design detail to an otherwise timeless silhouette.
What makes this particular TASAKI strand especially compelling is its unusual colour family, beautiful lustre and refined surface quality.
While classic white and cream Akoya pearls remain enduring favourites, silver-grey pearls displaying blue and mint overtones offer a more distinctive aesthetic. Their cool, luminous appearance creates subtle shifts in colour depending on the surrounding light and viewing angle.
The pearls exhibit gorgeous lustre and glow, complemented by a beautifully refined surface texture. For pearl collectors, lustre is one of the most important quality considerations, as it determines the intensity and clarity of light reflected from the pearl's surface.
The approximately 7mm pearl size offers an elegant balance between delicacy and presence, making the strand suitable for everyday sophistication as well as formal occasions.
Another particularly charming detail is the special double-Akoya pearl clasp, which introduces an additional element of craftsmanship and visual interest.
At WLCSG, we have found this silver-grey and mint colour family increasingly challenging to source within the resale market, particularly when seeking strands with appealing lustre and overall visual harmony.
With an estimated retail replacement reference of SGD 5,000–8,000, our offering at SGD 1,588 represents an attractive opportunity to acquire a distinctive TASAKI Akoya pearl strand at a substantial difference from comparable retail replacement costs.
There is something particularly captivating about Akoya pearls that move beyond the traditional white and cream colour palette.
This TASAKI strand is a beautiful example.
What immediately caught our attention was its delicate interplay of blue, silver-grey and mint overtones. Rather than appearing as a flat grey, the pearls reveal a luminous, multidimensional glow that gives the entire necklace a wonderfully refined character.
We especially appreciate the approximately 7mm proportions, which offer enough presence to showcase the pearls' beautiful lustre while remaining elegant and versatile on the neckline.
The special double-Akoya pearl clasp is another detail we love, adding a distinctive finishing touch that sets this strand apart from more conventional pearl necklaces.
For collectors familiar with Japanese Akoya pearls, finding an appealing cool-toned strand is not simply about colour. Lustre, surface quality and the harmony of the pearls throughout the necklace are equally important considerations.
This is precisely why we find this particular TASAKI piece so appealing.
With a retail replacement reference of approximately SGD 5,000–8,000, our offering at SGD 1,588 presents a compelling opportunity for collectors seeking something more unusual than the traditional white Akoya strand.
A beautifully luminous TASAKI creation with silver-grey, blue and mint overtones—an elegant expression of Japanese pearl craftsmanship and a distinctive addition to any fine-jewellery collection.
