Pearl FALCO’s Mission and Contribution to the Pearl Industry
As a premier jewellery brand and pearl specialist from Ise Shima, Japan, Pearl FALCO exemplifies the elegance and sophistication driving the global pearl jewelry market. By offering exquisite saltwater pearls, we align with growing consumer demand for high-quality, luxurious jewellery. Our expansion into Singapore underscores the rising international appeal of fine pearls and highlights our commitment to contributing to the market’s dynamic growth.
At Pearl FALCO, we believe that each piece of pearl jewellery tells a unique story, reflecting the beauty of nature and the dedication of those who nurture these living gems. However, the art of Akoya pearl cultivation is under threat. Global warming and Japan’s aging population have drastically reduced Akoya pearl production, with a 90% decline compared to previous levels. In the past two years, 80% of Akoya mother oysters have perished.
Through our , Pearl Legacy Project which includes the creation of documentaries and the organization of cultural tours, we aim to raise awareness of these challenges. Our mission is to preserve the cherished tradition of Akoya pearl cultivation and pass its legacy to future generations. By sharing these stories, we hope to foster a deeper appreciation for pearls and the dedicated efforts required to sustain their beauty.
