Akoya Pearl Earrings

Shop Akoya cultured pearl earrings by pearl diameter, setting and fastening. Compare round white studs in 6–8mm sizes, larger white drops and lever-backs, and dyed-black Akoya styles. The product grid below is dedicated to earrings; use each listing to confirm the metal, included pair and current availability.

A smaller white stud: start with 6–6.5mm; compare 7–7.5mm or 7.5–8mm for more visible pearl size.
A drop or lever-back: compare the full design and closure. A drop can use a post and friction back, so the style name alone does not identify the fastening.
A darker color: read the treatment disclosure. Our dyed-black Akoya examples are distinct from naturally dark Tahitian pearls.

Compare these Akoya earring designs

These examples link to current product specifications rather than treating every Akoya earring as the same design. Check the selected listing for its price, photographs and availability.

6–6.5mm white studs: a smaller-diameter pair in solid 14K yellow gold, with round pearls, high luster, clean surfaces, very good matching and friction backs.
7–7.5mm white studs: compare the solid 14K yellow gold pair with the solid 14K white gold pair. Both listings state round white pearls, high luster, clean surfaces, very good matching and friction backs. Compare the photographs for metal color and overall appearance.
8.5–9mm white drops: a larger-pearl drop pair in 14K yellow gold, listed with high luster, lightly blemished surfaces, posts and friction backs. This drop design does not use a lever-back closure.
7.5–8mm dyed-black lever-backs: a 14K yellow gold pair with a peacock-toned appearance. The listing identifies the black color as dyed and describes round pearls, high luster and clean surfaces.

What to check before choosing a pair

Compare both pearls for size, shape, body color, overtone and luster. Pearl diameter does not establish the total earring weight or how the posts will fit. If weight, post dimensions or metal sensitivity matter to your choice, ask about the specific pair before ordering.

The white stud examples above list AAA as AKWAYA's seller grade. It is not a universal cross-seller or laboratory grade. Read the AKWAYA Pearl Grading Methodology alongside the item-specific specifications; use the Pearl Grading Guide for the underlying quality factors.
