Dear PS family, I admire all of the pearls necklaces posted here and really want to add a beautiful akoya strand to my collection.
I have visited Mikimito to see the pearls in person and understand what I like. And was really in love with their AA and AAA quality strands in 7.00-7.50mm size.
I am looking to order the strand from Takahashi, that is so highly recommended here. And I would love that the strand could solidly compare with AA quality of those I saw in Mikimito. So far Yy was amazing in helping me by sending some of their selections.
It looks like I am coming down to 7.5-8.0mm size and two strands: both natural whites:
one is uncerted and described as high Luster and minor surface blemishes. It has crème pinkish color to my eyes.
The other is certified PSL Tenyo and has pink bluish color.
I will greatly appreciate your help in pointing me in right direction based on these photos and if I shall ask/look further
