Mikimoto pearls; the epitome of Japanese craftsmanship and class
bag design fashion handbag japan mikimoto pearl pearls vintage
Kokichi Mikimoto was credited with creating the world's first cultured pearl in 1893. He went on to establish his luxury pearl company Mikimoto, and the cultured pearl industry was born. More than 120 years later, Mikimoto pearls are some of the most expensive and collectable pearls in the world. The brand is synonymous with luxury craftsmanship and traditional Japanese design, making their jewellery and accessories highly sought after. See www.mikimotoamerica.com for more information and inspiration.
