Thank you very much :) I will be going next Tuesday so I'll make sure i update ;)

http://www.antique-jewelry-investor.com/pearls-handed-down-from-aunt-mikimoto.html This is the almost identical strand I've found with same clasp and same lettering on the clasp.

I inherited some pearls from my Grandma a couple of years ago and having no knowledge about pearls I decided to do some research on them. They were a gift from my Grandpa to my Grandma and come with paperwork to suggest they are Mikimoto pearls bought in Hong Kong from Lane Crawfords in 1962...

Thank you very much :)
