In our opinion, it is best to leave the add a pearl necklace with an odd number of pearls while you are adding to it so that you create a center or symmetry. Of course, any quantity in any size as a starter is available . We recommend that you use uniform verses graduated if it is an on going gift giving present so that there is no confusion when you re-order.

We receive many phone calls regarding presentation and maintenance of your pearls. Typically, our customers collect and save about five (5) add a pearl^TM before they put them on the existing necklace. If your necklace is 18" and you want us to add 1" of the pearls then we would remove one half inch from each side of the chain necklace (and return that to you) and then add or restring the new pearls. The pearls are strung on silk cord and then each side is attached to the chain. All of your additions are at our cost including shipping. However, any competent independent jeweler in your home town should have that service available for you at approximately the same price. For your information, on an average it will take you about five - seven years to collect enough pearls to make an 18" add-a-pearl necklace. It is the perfect solution for any young girl in your immediate or extended family. If you have time a really nice way to do this is two inches per year. One on her birthday and another during the the holidays. Then you are finished during the child's formative years.
