No trip to Tokyo is complete without a visit to legendary the department store Wako in Ginza. While there, be sure to seek out the company’s line of fine jewellery, which makes expert use of luxurious materials. These glistening necklaces are made from the finest cultured pearls. The golden hue of the South Sea pearls is complemented by an 18-carat yellow gold clasp set with diamonds, while the pale iridescence of the Akoya pearls is perfectly paired with a clasp in 18-carat white gold. Pearls have long been a symbol of luxury and beauty, and no jewellery collection is complete without at least one string.
