STRINGING PEARLS
A Difficult Task That Calls For
Skill and Judgment.
CORDED ON SURGEON'S SILK.
A Soft, Round Strand of Pure White
Woven Thread Is Employed, and an
Intricate 8ystem of Knotting Guards
the Gems Should the String Break.
Every now and then a story la print
ed about the loss of a valuable string
of pearls through the breaking of the
cord on which they were bung and
their slipping off and scattering over
the floor or sidewalk. Those who
know anything about the stringing of
pearls, however, always read these
tales wltb incredulity, because nowa
days, as a general thing, only false
pearls or those of small price are
strung without u knot being tied be
tween each of them, so that if the
cord breaks no more than one can fall
off.
It is common belief that because of
their great value pearls are strung on
something durable, like catgut or wire.
As a matter of fact such material hi
never employed. There Is no beauty
to a string of pearls that looks wiry
or stiff. It must be flexible to the
highest degree, otherwise all Its grace
ful effect will be lost. Up to the time
of the introduction of surgeon's silk
for pearl stringing nothing had been
found tbat would absolutely meet the
requirements of strength and flexi
bility. Tbat tbe most valuable pearls are to
day strong on cords of surgeon's silk
la due to the suggestion of a woman
employee of a New York Jewelry
noose.
Surgeon's silk-the thread tbat hi
used for sewing up cuts and wounds
la a toft, round strand of pure white
ilk which Is woven, not twisted. The
weave, when viewed under a magni
fying glass, closely resembles that of
flue silk braid and la capable of only
a small degree of expansion. This
thread Is produced In several diam
eters or grades, which makes It all tbe
more desirable for pearl stringing
These are numbered instead of being
lettered like ordinary sewing milk and
are wound on small cards like darning
COUOD.
When the young woman ides was I
lint adopted It seemed as than, it
would prove Impracticable owing to
iue quanuiy or surgeon s silk roanu
factored being insufficient to meet the
now demands from tbe Jewelers, ft
was also very expensive. But tbe Ides
was such a good one And tbe surgeon s
silk was so much superior to anything
ever tried before that In time It waa
found possible to sec-are ft In sufficient
quantities and at wholesale prices.
Tbe principal safeguard ugulnst loss,
however, is In th- method of string-
Ing. An Intricate system of knotting
the thread between each pearl is em
ployed. This prevents the escape of
more than one jewel should tbe thread
break. This knotting Is done with
tweezers and Is a tusk that requires
great skill. There must be no unsight
ly gaps between tbe knots and the
pearls, and tbe whole when finished
must be immaculate in its whiteness.
Tbe tiny knots Instead of detracting
from tbe beauty of tbe necklace en
hance It, for tbey look like seed pearls
alternating with tbe larger ones. Knot
ting lengthens tbe necklace also and
Is often resorted to for that purpose.
When s strand of a certain length Is
desired and tbe number of large pearla
Is not sufficient Imitation pearls of tbe
exact else and color are often substi
tuted. Some of these imitations wUI
deceive tbe eye of any but the most
expert.
It often happens tbat tbe largest
pearls have tbe smallest boles drilled
through them, for every grain that is
taken from tbe pearl reduces It in
weight. In sucb cases, however, tbe
risk of the cord breaking Is Increased
owing to the alenderuess of tbe thread
and the sharp edges of the pearls cut
ting through It quickly.
Stringing pearls Is never done with
a needle. A needle Is not yielding
enough to pass through very small
boles, and tbe doubling of Its diameter
at tbe eye makes its use impracticable.
Therefore the end of the thread is
sharpened to a very flue point, which
hi waxed stiffly enough to be used ex
actly as a needle would be.
Ordinarily pearl stringing is me
chauicully difficult and also requires
taste and Judgment. Tbe pearls may
have to be rearranged in order to Im
prove their general appearance, in
tbe laying out of collarets especially
a great deal of skill is required. In
tbe first place, the collaret must lit
exactly. This seems comparatively
easy, but it Is not. A pattern Is al
ways fitted beforehand, but It is rare
ly tbe case tbat tbe result Is satisfac
tory the first time. Some necks re
quire straight collara and others
slightly curved. Tbe same care is giv
en to tbe fitting of a collaret as to the
set of an expensive gown, and It has
to be tried on end cbanged and ad
Justed aa many times.
Dividers are used to gauge the exact
position in wblch the vertical diamond
(tars that support the strands of pearls
should be placed. Endless care 'and
Judgment may be given to laying out
the pattern for one of these baubles
and getting tbe measurements abso
lutely exact, bat when it comes to bs
fitted there Is sure to be trouble It
nay be too tight at tbe bottom and
too loose at tbe top. or perhaps tbe
ends may not even meet st all -Thad
