RE-String a PEARL Necklace or Bracelet with Handy Trouble Shooting Ideas
I’ve been restringing pearls for years and it can be a bit tricky. Through the video I show you how I encounter a few issues and then overcome them. Hope you enjoy watching!
One of the most often asked questions I receive from beginning beaders is what type of cord or string you should use to string their pearls. Of course, it would be nice to be able to tell them to use string "X." There are many different types of stringing media on the market. So, to decide which string to use, you need to consider what you're stringing. And, in my opinion, no one type of string or cord can do it all as even in the one strand pearl hole sizes can differ. Usually when restringing pearls larger than 5mm they are fine but smaller than this and I’ve occasionally had to hand drill out each pearl.
Size 6 silk thread is the best choice for most knotted pearl necklaces. However, the size of the thread you use really depends on the size of the hole. The most important thing to consider, besides size, is the material. Silk thread is the best choice for knotting a pearl necklace. I often use size 10 for strength in larger pearls.
Silk is a higher quality thread than nylon. So, when you're charging people to hand-knot their pearl strands, it only makes sense to use a good quality thread. It comes in a variety of colors (white, black, gray, pink, etc.) and sizes (#1-#10)
I use 0.15mm wire to twist for my needles :)
