Value of Mikimoto Pearls
|
In Dublin, Ireland, Mikimoto sells their jewelry at Weir and Sons rather than having their own store.
I will show you a comparison of the value of Mikimoto pearls in a second...just keep reading.
Mikimoto has two display units right near the front door in Weir and Sons. They are awkwardly placed in such a way that it's unclear whether or not customers can go between them in order to view the pearl closely.
At any rate, one can still find out the value of Mikimoto Pearls here.
Weir and Sons
The clerks were helpful, but again, really didn't know what to do with me, so was given no special attention. Plus, it was a busy place with serious customers needing their time.

I could have taken a photo of a single item with the consideration to buy it. But, I honestly told the fellow, I had no intention to purchase anything, I only wanted a photo of the display. He politely said, "Then no, no photographs."

I wasn't surprised and don't even know why I asked....just wanted something to show all of you, my valued guests.
These photographs were taken of the outside store window.
I stumbled upon this store which sold Mikimoto pearls while "killing time" in Dublin, Ireland and handing out cards for my website. I also discovered "door bells" in Dublin jewelry stores. There were a few of these in London, but lots in Dubliln. It took a little nerve to "bother" anyone by ringing the bell, when all I wanted to do was give them my business card, but it grew easier and easier to "be a bother."
Here is a good place to evaluate the value of Mikimoto pearls in the above two pairs of earrings. One is 7-7.5mm and grade AA for 475 Euro (about $633 USD). Look at the price jump for only a .5mm increase from 7.5-8mm and a grade AAA. These are 1241 Euro (about $1655 USD). That's an additional 766 Euros or over $1000 USD extra for the better luster and slightly larger size.
Take a close look a the above pearl necklaces. There are three draped one upon another. They are from the new Elements of the Universe collection each containing diamonds of graduating colors, blue, yellow and white, representing, water, earth and sky with Akoya, Tahitian and South Sea pearls.
I offer lots of pearl education on this site and feel it's valuable for employers in training their employees. I hear so many silly things said about pearls when visiting jewelry stores.
After seeing this enormous flag for Rolex watches, I realized this store, Weir and Sons, must be pretty big sellers of Rolex.
Weir and Sons
I love these large, old established jewelry stores. Those, along with pubs and churches are the main establishments which retain the original integrity of ancient architecture...which really interests me.
