Pearl-knotting: Pearls are traditionally knotted individually to
protect the pearl's nacre. The light weight nature of pearls and
small semi-precious stones also have a nice drape when you on
your knees to find all the pearls as they fall when the silk wears
through, too! Pearls should be re-strung periodically to reduce
chance of breakage while wearing them. I use double thread
unless design warrants single thread.
Re-stringing: for single or multiple strands of beads of any
sort. In most cases I use micro-wire technology: micro woven
stainless steel wires braided together and then nylon coated. It
is hypoallergenic and can be worn in and out of salt and fresh
water. (Although I recommend always removing jewelry before
swimming or bathing!) It is very strong and flexible. A review of
the piece will determine appropriate stringing material. No
redesign work is done for this service.
