| Amber beads could be used as spacers if you like the look and want to lengthen the necklace. Amber is just slightly softer than pearls.
The earrings I made to go with my exotics strands (see photos in Exotics thread) are made with the same type pearls as your necklace; with their extreme orient, I think they go well with the exotics. Do consider making earrings with two of the pearls. Then you could wear them either with this strand or with the exotics. |
