Our Business
Manufacturing & Wholesale
Our in-house factory, "JAPAN CRAFT," is located in Niigata. At Akasaka Unibase, we do not outsource manufacturing to subcontractors; instead, our skilled artisans craft each piece of jewelry with precision and care.
Our wholesale division, "GOSHO," boasts one of the industry's largest collections of jewelry mount designs. With approximately 36,000 models, including rings, pendants, and jewelry parts, GOSHO leads the way in offering variety and quality.
GOSHO serves over 1,500 clients nationwide, ranging from department stores to local jewelry shops, establishing itself as one of Japan's premier manufacturers of jewelry mounts.
Akasaka Akoya Pearl Division
The Akoya pearls used in AKASAKA AKOYA PEARL are sourced exclusively from a selected group of pearl producers who adhere to the highest quality standards.
From nucleation to cultivation, harvesting, and pearl selection, every step is entrusted to a limited number of seasoned pearl farming professionals. This ensures that we deliver only the finest quality Akoya pearls to our customers.
