※What is "Umihotaru"?
Naturally colored blue baroque Akoya pearls cultivated by a leading domestic farmer with 120 years of history in Tsushima, Nagasaki Prefecture.
Only pearls with a mysterious blue, as if reflecting the sea of Tsushima, are named "Umihotaru" and certified as a pearl brand.
The beautiful interference colors of Akoya pearls are created when organic components of the shell enter the nacre layer.
Naturally occurring blue colors are rare, and it is even rarer for them to appear beautifully and evenly covering the entire pearl.
While naturally colored blue Akoya pearls are said to be prone to color changes, "Umihotaru" pearls have a thick nacre layer and deep color, and undergo a preservation process under strict management to prevent color changes.
Customers who purchase "Umihotaru" pearls will receive a certificate proving their authenticity.

【Exclusive Parts】※Exclusive parts are sold separately. Exclusive parts are available here
We offer exclusive rings, earrings, and other items in K18 Yellow Gold or Pt900 to which COLLECTIBLE PEARLs can be attached.
A collection that offers unique and valuable pearls as screw-type jewelry.
The screw mechanism allows for free combination of pearls with various base parts such as earrings and rings.
【Nickel-Free】
The metal fittings (K18, PT900) are "nickel-free", made without any nickel, which is prone to causing metal allergies.
※This does not guarantee that no one will experience metal allergy reactions (allergy-free). If you experience any skin abnormalities, discontinue use immediately and consult a dermatologist.
【Handling of Screw Parts】
This product has an "anti-loosening treatment" applied to the screw threads.
※Some parts are untreated
By coating the screw threads with a thin, elastic film, this treatment suppresses screw loosening due to vibration, etc., through friction.
However, as it does not lock, screws may still loosen depending on the conditions of use.
When using, please ensure the screws are tightened securely before wearing, and periodically check for any loosening while wearing for safer use.
This product uses K18 or Pt900.
Compared to materials like iron, its hardness is lower, so the screw part may wear out or break depending on usage conditions.
Please be careful not to apply excessive upward or downward force when screwing it on.
In the unlikely event that the screw part deteriorates and becomes difficult to use, please contact us. We can offer repair or suggestions for remaking it into a different piece of jewelry.
Please contact us via the contact page on our website.
【Precautions】
・When cleaning the metal parts, be careful not to touch the screw part or pearls.
・Pearls may change color or crack if left in a hot and humid environment for a long time. Always store them in a place out of direct sunlight.
・Pearls are soft and easily scratched. Store them in a separate case, away from other accessories.
*Each pearl sometimes has blemishes and flaws on the surface which actually indicate that a pearl is authentic. *For any enquiries and further information about our products, please do not hesitate to contact us before the purchase. *The pearls and jewelries on the image may slightly differ from their actual color, texture and design due to the display resolution on different devices.
