"I would like to adorn the necks of all the women of the world
with pearls," said Kokichi Mikimoto shortly after he succeeded
in culturing a perfectly round pearl.
Mikimoto is the original, and simply the world’s finest in cultured
pearls. In 1893, when he successfully created the world’s first
cultured pearl and launched the cultured pearl industry, he allowed
pearls to become available to women everywhere. Through mastery, aesthetics
and a consuming fascination with quality, Kokichi Mikimoto turned
cultured pearls into one of the world's most beloved fashion accessories.
Mikimoto’s mission is to uncover the finest materials and with
original design and distinctive craftsmanship to transform them into
the most elegant jewelry imaginable.
