I was gifted a large string of black freshwater pearls (8-9mm in diameter each) to do what I wanted with them.
In the end I: gave back a shorter string of pearls that were in the more classic style; made a more informal lariat string for a friend; made a three string set on tiger wire for sale; and have finished using the remaining pearls on earrings and a pendant as seen in the opening photo - also for sale.
Following are photos of the earrings.
The double strand lariat was a bit tricky to make as the friend wanted a particular loop and toggle 'clasp'.
The three string necklace is can be an informal or formal piece.
In keeping with my recent approach I have tried to use all the pearls so they don't just sit around for another day. This means this series is now complete.
