you need to know to successfully design with pearls. And I mean
everything! Warren has been a jewelry designer for over 25 years. From

Pearl Knotting with Warren Feld
"A pearl knotted necklace is timeless, sophisticated,
architecturally perfect and steeped in centuries old traditions, yet how
best to make a pearl knotted necklace is constantly debated." ~ Warren Feld
There are many, many variations in technique, yet most are very
difficult for the beginner, and Warren has seen too many students throw
up their hands in frustration. Either they cannot tie the knots, make
good knots or get them close enough to the pearl beads. And finding
clear and concise information on how to attach the clasp is practically
impossible!

Why do we knot between pearls?
Some of the reasons include:
- To prevent loss of pearls when a necklace breaks
- To protect the surface of the pearl from scratching
- To visually highlight or "frame" each pearl
