This is a strand of antique art deco style Japanese saltwater akoya cultured pearls.

The pearls measure 5.50-7.50mm with good to fair luster and rosy pink overtones. They are white to light cream color and are round. Quite a few natural blemishes and some inconsistency in color and luster.

The clasp is solid sterling silver and stamped "STERLING". It is an art deco style with a single paste stone set in the center. Total length is 18 inch. 

All pearls are truly vintage and have only been lightly cleaned and restrung.
