Akoya Freshwater Pink Multi-Hue Baroque Pearls, 10-10.5mm

Akoya Pearls, 16" string

Lovely, deep shimmer, these have a nice luster, with a more baroque shape.   10-10.5mm diameter.  Lovely color, you get an assortment on each string, from pale pinks, dark pinks, lilacs and peaches.

These are called Akoya because they are cultured in the same way saltwater Akoya's are, but in a specific freshwater pearl mussel. 

They generally have a nucleus of mother of pearl, which can give them a more reflective nacre.
