Overall length of the pendant measures 11.7mm or almost 7/16" in length. Just as a comparison - a US penny is 18mm in diameter. Combined weight is 1.5g or .05oz in weight. That's about the weight of a US penny.
**Pearl Facts: I grade my pearls using an A-AAA grading scale, where AAA is the best quality available. AAA grade pearl will have a surface that is at least 95% free of any defects (dimples, chips," burn marks", any unsightly thing). Aki is without blemish.
Color in freshwater pearls is dictated by the colors produced by the inside of the mother oyster's shell. Aki's color is just as her mother oyster made her.
