Great company to deal with. I Appreciate the special offers and the good pricing that allow me to buy these lovely pearls for me and for my daughters and my granddaughters. I appreciate dealing with this company very much.
Could not decide between the 8mm or 9mm size and ended up going with the 9. The size is large enough to be noticeable and stands out (especially if one has short hair or wears hair up). These pearl studs are beautiful (nice luster) and can be worn every day with any type of clothing. I chose the "elephant backs" which are sturdy and hold the studs on very securely - no worries about them coming off accidentally. I would buy from American Pearl again!
I rated delivery a 5 so as not to leave blank and reduce the rating; however, I was to be in New York and was able to pick up my order at American Pearls offices. I was pleased with the AAA pearl earrings. You may find prices a little less but you probably are not going to get pearls that are as-advertised quality. The A to AAA ratings of pearls is abused, in my opinion, by many retailers. After checking a number of websites, and looking at the stock of a number of storefront sellers, I decided to follow the advice of a wise friend. He suggested I deal with one of the New York firms who had a long history of dealing in that very competitive market. American Pearl has been around for many years and is now operated by the second generation family. Their offices are right on the corner of New Yorks diamond district. You just dont survive the market there if you sell junk. I was glad I saw APs offices, and presentation rooms. Very professional without a lot of glitz. The product spoke for itself. The pearls I got are so much nicer, in every respect, than anything else I looked at. I also was able to get the more secure screw-backs here. I think you will also be impressed with the fact that these folks put their street address right on the website - unlike so many others. The phone is answered, many times, by one of the owners. I am difficult to please and usually have many questions. I know I called them five times in the same day and was never rushed. They even addressed my concern for their 30-day return period running out because I got the pearls in November for Christmas. One of the family owners sent an e-mail to me to extend the return period so my wife would have the full 30 days to consider her gift. I have no doubt she will cause me to contact American Pearl again - to get a matching necklace.
I have bought from American Pearl many times over the years and have never been disappointed. Solid service, excellent prices and quality products.
Japanese Akoya pearls are some of the most highly beloved pearls in the world and American Pearl offers a selection of some of the highest quality authentic Japanese Akoya pearls on the market. Our beautiful cultured pearl earrings are made using 9 millimeter pearls that are peg set on 14k gold, 18k gold or platinum posts.
Pearls used to make the earrings are perfectly round in shape with a very high luster and clean surface. The pearls are white with a silver overtone. Push backs for pierced ears come standard, but upgrades to other backing types are available.
You can count on American Pearl to offer you the world's finest quality authentic Japanese Akoya cultured pearls available in the marketplace. Unlike other sellers who quietly hide a half-formed (what we call a three-quarter-cut pearl) into a gold cup, American Pearl only uses perfectly round, complete, perfectly clean pearls. All of our matched pairs have the same (1) bodycolor, (2) luster, (3) overtone and (4) size.
