Mikimotos signature is the letter M in a clam shell. You mention the clasp is not made of ss? Sterling Silver? A photo would be great.

I believe you would like to know how the Mikimoto pearls are attached to the clasp. The pearls are strung on silk cord and the cord is fed through small opening on the clasp and then fed back through the last few pearls and knotted.
