Thank you, BWeaves, Jersey, Sanippy, PW, and Kat!!
Yup, that is an old watch chain, Jersey :) I love watch chains; I got this one from my bff's aunt's hoard.
You're too kind, PW! I started wire wrapping 17 years ago and practice makes perfect, I've had a lot of time for that ;)
I fell pretty hard for the tiny blues (and greens) after Cees posted that strand of tiny Vietnamese akoya. I ended up purchasing a small parcel of tiny baroques from him and these were the most vivid of the lot. I've actually got a outstanding order with him for vivid seafoam green pearls for a vintage ring restoration and drop earring projects. Fingers crossed he can find the color I'm wanting!

No pearls today as I'll be goose banding, but I finished stringing my copycat of Sarah's beautiful waterfall strand. I used 8mm vintage akoya (the largest pearls) and a variety of freshies.
