What's your guestimate, Jeremy? Mine guess - 30 inches. Fun look at his website!!

This will be good!!

Keshi pearls can sometimes have more porous or even hollow spaces inside, so perhaps not as heavy as one might expect. That brooch, though, will definitely add some weight! Funny, did anyone see a length given? Truly amazing necklace!

Yes, a super Team and Congratulations to all!

You might want to contact KariPearls.com as she does sell natural pearls. We aren't able to advise values.

My vote goes to Akoya, a very pretty strand! I've just recently used scrimps on Pearl Dreams recommendation. They make an attractive and secure finish. Some designs really must be strung on wire.

Yes! Beautiful pearls and Coral is very complimentary! Well done on the knotting, CatMom!

Pearl Dream's detailed tutorial is the one I recommend all the time!!

Ageofsolarium, what a big relief if the traveling appraiser works out! I didn't know anyone did such a thing. Thank you for the lovely compliment ~ it's fun playing around with the pearl/thread color combos!

And I'm especially lusting for the bottom strand!! lol

Beck83, Just to verify, you are using Beaders Secret from Australia? Some years ago, Bernadette and I were both selling Serafil thread under the "Beaders Secret" brand. It looks to me like your thread may be from a different manufacturer and plyed from shorter pieces of fiber that "fluff up"...
