Frequently asked questions
What length is a Collar pearl necklace?
Collar length necklaces measure 12-13 inches and sits high on the neck above the collarbone, the most intimate length.
What size Akoya pearls work best for a Collar necklace?
For Collar length, 9-12mm pearls are typical for everyday elegance. 13mm and larger create dramatic statement pieces — particularly for high necklines, evening wear, layering with longer pearls.
Are Akoya pearls suitable for Collar length necklaces?
Yes. Akoya pearls from Pinctada fucata are well-suited to Collar length, particularly because their classic white with pink overtones — the highest mirror luster of any cultured pearl stand out at this position on the body.
How do I care for a Akoya pearl necklace?
Wipe gently with a soft cloth after each wearing. Avoid perfumes, lotions, and chemicals — apply these before putting on the necklace, not after. Store flat in a soft pouch (not hung), and have the strand restrung professionally every 2-3 years for daily-wear pieces.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. We ship worldwide with insured tracked delivery. Free shipping on orders over $150 USD. Each piece arrives with certificate of authenticity.
A Collar-length necklace measures 12-13 inches and sits high on the neck above the collarbone, the most intimate length. Collar length is best for high necklines, evening wear, layering with longer pearls. Victorian-era origin; popularized as the foundation of the multi-strand "dog collar" look. This collection presents Akoya pearl necklaces in the Collar length tier — pearls from Pinctada fucata, sourced from Japan. Akoya pearls show classic white with pink overtones — the highest mirror luster of any cultured pearl. The pieces here are hand-strung with knotted silk between pearls (the traditional method that prevents wear and keeps pearls separate if a strand breaks). Settings include 18K gold and 925 sterling silver clasps. For Collar length specifically, we recommend pearl sizes that complement the drop — typically 9-12mm for a balanced look, larger sizes (13mm+) for statement effect. Each necklace ships with our certificate of authenticity, origin notation, and grading sheet.
