The Tres Jolie Earring: White Akoya Pearls in 14K Yellow Gold

November 11, 2026

The Tres Jolie earring was recently crafted to order with a pair of 9mm white Akoya cultured pearls in 14K yellow gold. Each round pearl sits on top of a wide, sculpted band of gold that sweeps back behind the ear, so the earring looks polished from the front and from the side.

The white Akoya pearls in the Tres Jolie earring

The pearls in the Tres Jolie earring are round 9mm Japanese Akoya cultured pearls with a white body color. They are True AAA quality, with excellent luster and a clean surface. As the earrings turn in the video, each pearl shows a bright, sharp reflection with a soft rose glow, the look Akoya pearls are known for.

The 14K yellow gold design of the Tres Jolie earring

Tres Jolie means "very pretty" in French, and the gold is what gives this earring its shape. A smooth, high-polish band of 14K yellow gold curves under each pearl and opens into a graceful swirl. The earring measures .39 inches wide (10.00mm), .69 inches high (17.61mm) and .81 inches deep (20.62mm), so it sits close to the ear with a bold, sculptural profile.
