STRINGINGPEARLS
A Difficult Task That Calls For
Skill and Judgment.
CORDED ON SURGEON'S SILK.
A Soft, Round Strand of Pur* White
Woven Thread Is Employed, and an
Intricate System of Knotting Guards
the Gems Should the 8tring Break.
Kvery now and then a story la print
ed about the loss of a valuable string
ot pearls through the breaking of the
cord on which they were hung and
their slipping off and scattering over
the floor or sidewalk. Those who
know nuythiug about the stringing of
pearls, however, always read these
tales with incredulity, because nowa
days, us u general thing, only false
pearls or those of small price are
strong without a 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 mutter of fact such material is
never employed. There Is no beauty
to a string of pearls that looks wiry
or stiff. It must he flexible to the
highest degree, otherwise all its grace
ful effect will be lost. Dp to the time
ot the introduction of surgeon’s silk
for pearl stringing nothing had been
found that would absolutely meet the
requirements of strength and flexi
bility.
lhat tbe most valuable pearls are to
day struug on cords of surgeon’s silk
Is due to the suggestion of a woman
employee of a New York Jewelry
bouse.
Surgeon’s silk—the thread that is
used for sewing up cuts and wounds—
is a soft, round strand of pure white
silk which is woven, not twisted. The
weave, when viewed under a magni
fying glass, closely resembles that 6f
due silk braid and is capable of only
a small degree of expansion. This
thread is produced in several diam
eters or grades, which makes it all the
more desirable for pearl stringing.
These are numbered instead of being
lettered like ordinary sewing silk and
are wound on small cards like darning
cotton.
When the young woman's ideu was
first adopted it seemed as though it
would prove impracticable owing to
the quantity of surgeon's silk manu
factured being Insufficient to meet tbe
new demands from the Jewelers. It
was also very expensive. But the idea
was such a good one and the surgeon’s
silk was so much superior to anything
ever tried before that in time it was
found possible to secure it in sufficient
quantities and at wholesale prices.
The principal safeguard against loss,
however, is in the method of string
ing. An intricate system of knotting
the thread between each pearl is em
ployed. This prevents tbe escape of
more than oue Jewel should the thread
break. This knotting is done with
tweezers and is a task that requires
great skill. There must be no unsight
ly gaps between the knots and the
pearls, and the whole when finished
must be immaculate in its whiteness.
Tbe tiny knots Instead of detracting
from the beauty of the necklace en
hance it, for they look like seed pearls
alternating with the larger ones. Knot
ting lengthens the necklace also and
Is often resorted to for that purpose.
When a strand of a certain length is
desired and tbe number of large pearls
Is not sufficient Imitation pearls of the
exact size and color are often substi
tuted. Some of these Imitations will
deceive the eye of any but the most
oy nort
It often happens that the largest
pearls have the smallest boles drilled
through them, for every grain that Is
taken from the pearl reduces It in
weight. In such cases, however, the
risk of the cord breaking is increased
owing to the slenderness of the 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
holes, and the doubling of its diameter
at the eye makes its use impracticable.
Therefore, the end of the thread Is
sharpened to a very fine point, which
Is waxed stiffly enough to be used ex
actly as a needle would be.
Ordinarily pearl stringing is me
chanically difficult and also requires
taste and judgment. The pearls may
have to be rearranged in order to im
prove their general appearance, in
the laying out of collarets especially
a great deal of skill is required. In
the first place, the collaret must tit
vxactly. This seems comparatively
easy, but it is not. A pattern is al
ways fitted beforehand, but it is rare
ly the case that the result is satisfac
tory the first time. Some necks re
quire straight collars and others
slightly curved. The same care is giv
en to the fitting of a collaret as to the
set of an expensive gown, and it has
to be tried on and changed and ad
justed as many times.
Dividers are used to gauge the exact
position in which the vertical diamond
bars 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 the measurements abso
lutely exact, but when it comes to be
fitted there Is sure to be trouble, it
may be too tight at the bottom and
too loose at the top, or perhdps the
ends may not even meet at alt—Thad
