Akoya Keshi Pearls

[mohamed slaise]

Good Day
All

Was hoping some one could guide me on how to obtain some Akoya Keshi Pearls from Japan

I will be traveling to Japan next week 18-21st dec, anyone has contact of a pearl dealer who might have some Akoya Keshi Pearls (bi-product of cultured pearls)

Would be grateful !!

Thank you

A lot of Japanese wholesalers and processors deal in keshi, but there is one company that specializes in it. I purchased a keshi torsade from this company at one of the shows. They drill the keshi pearls the traditional way in India.

I believe they also have an office in Japan, but it isn't listed on their website.

Keshi Pearls | Pearl Exporting Company | Japanese Keshi Seed Pearls

Pearl Exporting Company specializes in Japanese Akoya saltwater Keshi, Tahitian, South Sea, and seed pearls. Keshi known as seed pearls is an extremely rare form of pearl. Fact, true Japanese Keshi pearls are from the Japanese Akoya Oyster found only in the Sea of Japan and never from freshwater.
