Gorgeous necklace! The Pearls in Motion are so cool. You made me want to browse around the Mikimoto website. I'm loving the White South Sea necklace.

In my dreams!

Fortunately, I am going to take DH to visit the Mikimoto store in Vegas next month!!!

They had a few in the case! I picked this one up a couple of months ago at the Venetian boutique. :)

Just wanted to share my wedding day jewelry - a Limited Edition Mikimoto Pearls In Motion earring and necklace set. I'm not sure what sizes the pearls are (I think 7-8mm?) but the colors are varying shades of pinks, lavenders, and muted golds...

Btw, I had no idea what grade or type these pearls were when I bought them (I just fell in love), but ever since browsing many pearl threads, I've learned so much and am now really curious about what I have. The receipt only says that they are "freshwater" but no indication of grade. Does anyone know how I could go about finding out if they are A or AAA? TIA!

^^ I agree, it's like wearing a watercolor painting! I LOVE that! OMG *want* I've also see the Pearls in Motion necklace with PINK pearls. That was very cute as well.

I told DH last night that we're going to the Mikimoto store in Vegas next month. He responded, "Why are we going there?"

Lol.

I know with my Mikimoto items, they included the little gold tag with the pearls, and on the back it listed the grading and size. Otherwise, I'm sure you can call their customer service and ask if the limited edition stuff was made with one grade or multiple. Their customer service is so great and very prompt.

If they made them with more than one grade, try the store you bought them from, they might have a record of what they were.

that necklace totally makes me want one in those colours now....

the list never ends *sigh*

^^jan, thanks for the suggestion. mine didn't come with a gold tag, so i'll call the SCP store where i got it and ask...

candice - 'muted watercolors' is such a great way to describe them! :)

FlgirlFM - love your black south sea pearls in motion. Did you get the matching earrings?

mineko - beautiful set and the colours are extraordinary. No wonder you fell in love with them.

Decided to bump up this thread. I hope more Mikimoto fans will post up their pieces here.

Is Mikimoto cheaper in Asia (like HK or Taiwan) ?

Thanks

^^ I am not sure about other countries but I know it's cheaper in Hong Kong compared to Kuala Lumpur. In Hong Kong, buying Mikimoto from Lane Crawford with privilege card entitles you a 10% discount compared to Mikimoto boutiques.
