Kochiya Pearls & Gems - Monterey (CA)

5 /5 Holly Hong: My partner and I had a wonderful time here—just passing by, we saw signs for REMARKABLY affordable “choose your own pearl oyster” experience. I’m so glad we stopped in! I highly recommend Kochiya.

5 /5 Teresa Bernhardt: Had an amazing experience today with my husband. My wedding ring has a gorgeous center pearl but it recently chipped so we came in to ask some questions but got so much more! We ended up building a ring together and have now decided well be going here for all my future pearl jewelry

5 /5 Nicholas beltramo: Amazing amazing amazing store. Everything is top notch from the pearls, to the jewelry and especially the customer service. We plan on making a yearly trip and kochiya pearls will definitely be part of that trip! Thank you for all the help and time! Definitely check this place out!

5 /5 Mason Thomas: 11/10 AMAZING! I cannot say enough good things about this place! I came here with my girlfriend and family for Valentine’s Day to pick out an oyster and get a unique pearl. We looked all over and I believe this is one of the very few places you can still extract a pearl from an oyster, it was an amazing experience. He did not let us leave until we were 100% satisfied and happy. We got 2 amazing pearls, one light pink and another deep blue, almost black. He even let us pick another oyster if the pearl was not exactly perfect, which I really appreciated. Overall, these people are extremely talented artist, amazing jewelers , and even better people! I was truly blown away with just how nice the man was and how he truly cares about his customers! Anytime I’m back in Monterey, I’ll be sure to stop at this shop!

5 /5 Robert Sher: My wife and I bought pearls here twice. They are beautiful, and best of all, Karen and her father truly care about the satisfaction of their customers! Completely impressed. Over the top service. High value, high service. The next time we need pearls, we are going here for certain.
