Hi, I’m planning to buy pearl studs, I decided that I want Akoya pearls in 7,5-8mm. Initially I was thinking about getting it from Tiffany, but after I created a thread asking if it’s worth it, some members suggested going to Mikimoto for pearls, it got me thinking but there is no Mikimoto where i‘m, however I have a friend who is going for vacation soon and can get it for me. So he is the questio: does it worth going above grade A? I read that Mikimoto pearls are top 5%, so even lowest grade should be good enough. if it worth going for a higher grade, what would you recommend? thanks
