Mikimoto Pearls of Wisdom - Types of Pearls

The wonderful variety in types of pearls adds to their appeal. These gems of the sea will differ in their luster and mysterious colors depending on the type of oyster that produced them.

Mikimoto Pearls of Wisdom - Choosing Your Perfect Length

Longer strands of bigger pearls make a more dramatic fashion statement; shorter strands, while classic and elegant, can easily be dressed "up" or "down" for casual occasions. So if you're sporty, go shorter; sophisticated, go long.
Still can't decide? Opt for the mid-length
Princess strand, which flatters every lifestyle and body type.
