The graduated strand is more old fashioned looking- like it came from your family before or during the 1950's.
In the 1960's same size pearls took over the market and graduated pearls became very scarce. That is what I have noticed; it is not the official history, but it is the belief I am operating under.

So I see the choice as being: Old fashioned? Or Modern?
