You could also go to www.riogrande.com and there to your hearts content ordering gold findings, sterling findings, gemstones etc. Ask them for their "Findings Catalogue", they will send it for free. Once you order you have to order for at least 100 USD (thatīs not a problem with gold prices these days) but they have really lots of very elegant and stylish findings.

If I am not mistaken, they are also an eBay seller, and I have purchased from them before, white gold toggle bracelet with a heart tag, and white gold chains, and am happy to buy from them again.

I would probably buy another white gold toggle bracelet from them (if they have one in 8in long), and add the pearl charms myself

That's a thought, I could make the drops with small lobster clasps and make them into interchangable charms

Can't remember seeing that many white gold findings on their eBay shop though.

Finding King is an excellent source on eBay. I've never been disappointed by them.

They have a big website Blaire. I think (though without checking I'm not certain) that things are cheaper ordered through the website (no ebay fees for them to pay)

Hi Jerin,

Cathy suggested that one to me, and I have applied an account with Rio Grande and got the log in details today

Their website is a lot easier to navigate than their eBay shop!
