These small, 6.0-6.5 mm akoya pearl earrings are the perfect starter set for any young woman. The treated-black akoya pearls are perfectly round with sharp luster and smooth surface. The posts and backs are composed of solid 14-karat white or yellow gold.
As black is not a naturally occurring color in akoya pearls, the pearls have been treated with a permanent organic dye to achieve their dark coloration.
