HELP TO FIND INFORMATION ON "SIEKOMOTO" JAPANESE CULTURED PEARLS circa early 1900's
I have a single strand of "Siekomoto" cultured Pearls from the Pearl Farms of Japan handed down to me from my mother over 30 years ago, maybe from her mother, so could be looking at anywhere in the early 1900's. I live in Brisbane, Australia and the only markings is STGSIL on the back plate of the hand made sterling silver clasp, which also has a pearl in the centre.
There is no reference to SIEKOMOTO anywhere that I can find, so I would love to here from anyone with knowledge of any information and/or history of this pearl brand. Thanks
