Brand properties

General info :
Tasaki is the brand name used by Tasaki & Co., Ltd. a Japanese company that is one of the largest producers of Akoya pearls, and began business back in 1954.
Today, the luxury brand operates three pearl farms in addition to a Kobe design and production hub and a Tokyo flagship store. Tasaki is one of the largest producers of Akoya pearls, and as sustainability has become a key word in the jewelry trade, pearl farming’s foundation in traditional techniques has come to the fore.

Every day, 5,000-6,000 pearls are scrutinised and graded into 30 lots at Tasaki’s design and production site in Kobe, a city by Osaka Bay on Japan’s main island, Honshu. Pearls are graded according to colour, shape, size, surface (blemishes are a no-no), lustre, and thickness of nacre (anything upwards of 1.5mm).

Tasaki jewelry is fashioned from prime pearl specimens. The brand, which started out as a specialist wholesaler to a set of global luxury brands, began producing its first in-house designs in 1967, spurred on by the opening of the first Tasaki boutique in Kobe. Today, Tasaki strings and hand-knots rows of luminescent bored pearls into classic necklaces, and dots earlobes with classic pearl earrings.
In 2017, Tasaki installed fashion designer Prabal Gurung as its creative director.
