The term “Hanadama” is a quality designation that is bestowed upon some cultured Akoya saltwater pearls that are usually of Japanese origin. Hanadama is the Japanese word translating to spherical flower and was coined by Kokichi Mikimoto to describe the highest quality percentage of production in the Akoya pearl industry. Factors that determine pearl quality for all pearls include roundness, nacre thickness, color, overtones, luster, and only miniscule surface imperfections. While these gradation categories apply irrespective of size, the size of a pearl is a major factor in the rarity, and therefore, value of any pearl. Hanadama pearls are generally regarded as close to perfect in each of these attributes as any cultured Akoya pearl can get. Only approximately 2% of the annual pearl harvest qualifies for the Hanadama Grade. The Hanadama grade is still used to designate the absolute finest of each pearl harvest by the world's renowned pearl companies.
