Unlike other gemstones, pearls require no cutting, polishing or treatment to bring out their potential. Grown to be worn regularly, their natural beauty only increases with wear as the natural oils of your skin help to maintain the lustre of the pearl.

Ikecho is widely recognised at the House of Pearls. Priding themselves on exciting, contemporary designs, Ikecho specialises in the finest quality South Sea, Tahitian, Akoya, Mabe and Chinese Freshwater Pearls.

Houses an extensive and diverse range of luxurious pieces, and their collections are unparalleled in beauty or quality. Paired with quality gold and diamonds.

Make a glowing statement with Ikecho’s stunning baroque sets. Notorious for an irregular non-spherical shape, Baroque pearls make for a bold statement.

The 9ct White 4mm studs are a unique composition. Featuring a classic pearl stud, the earrings become more enthralling with the addition of a string of oval pearls which loop delicately at the base of the lobe.

The Edison collection is a contemporary series with defined shapes and stunning contrasts. Be it the inclusion of dazzling diamonds, 9ct gold and rose gold, as well as white and pink pearls, these styles are well suited to any age group or any event. Modern and modish, they emphasise the notorious spherical shape of the pearl by framing it in sharp lines and forms, squares, and frames that contrast with the natural perfection of the gem.

The Edison round ring has a 9mm white pearl. The simplicity of gold on the glamorous pearl shine is a beautiful representation of Ikecho’s more modern pieces.

In 2017 Ikecho began to introduce spectacular Opals to their pieces. Often paired with Opals or diamonds, these colourful phenomena represent the whole spectrum of the rainbow. However, each opal is as individual as a snowflake, and this light solid ring demonstrates the diversity possible. The Light Opal ring features 9 3mm stones in 9ct Rose Gold, Yellow Gold or Sterling Silver setting. Opal is almost exclusively found in Australia, and Ikecho proudly houses a selection of some of the world’s rarest stones, including black opals, light opals, boulder opals and rough opals.
