Vintage Mikimoto Sterling Silver and Akoya Pearl Formal Tuxedo Set
A complete formal men's accessory set consisting of two double-sided cufflinks and three matching shirt studs, manufactured by the renowned Mikimoto. Each piece is crafted in sterling silver and features a distinctive design with a dark, iridescent mother-of-pearl or abalone shell disc, meticulously bezel-set within a thin silver rim. At the center of each dark disc is a single, high-quality white Akoya cultured pearl, displaying Mikimoto's signature luster and spherical perfection. The cufflinks use a fixed bar connection between two decorative faces, a hallmark of traditional formal wear. The set is housed in its original cream silk-lined presentation box, featuring the gold-stamped 'Mikimoto Pearls' logo and 'The Nassau Shop' branding. The condition appears commensurate with age; the silver components show a natural dark patina indicative of authentic vintage sterling, and the box lining shows mild discoloration. This set likely dates to the mid-20th century (circa 1950s-1960s), reflecting a peak era for Japanese luxury pearl exports to international boutiques like those in the Bahamas.
