This year marks 130 years
since our founder, Kokichi Mikimoto,
successfully created the world's first cultured pearls
and
embarked on a journey to become a fine jeweller.
Through our long history,
we have developed a sense of gratitude and
respect for nature.
Out of our passion to protect and
live in harmony with our environment,
we wrote a love letter to the sea
where we grow beautiful pearls.
