high lustre pearls
You might just want to say "extra lustrous pearls" or "high quality pearls".
"perlagione" is translated as nacre, the pearly layer that covers the pearl nucleus and the thicker the layer the better the lustre. So basically these are very lustrous, high quality pearls

These sites don't translate "Piena perlagione" (which would literally translate to "full pearliness").
