Hi all.. when you are restringing a strand of pearls, do you restring them to match the original way they were finished, or do you finish the way you prefer, even if it's different than the current style?
As I've been observing, there are about three different ways to finish...with bullion, with bead tips, and the string just looped onto the clasp ring. I have two jobs right now. One is a mikimoto with bead tips, one is old & graduated with the silk right on the clasp loop.
So I'm wondering if I should maintain the original styles.
What do yall do?
