Loose pearls?

[Sanveann]

Hi there! I'm so glad to have found this board!

I'm a rosary maker and have a customer who would like pearl Pater ("Our Father") beads on her rosary. We are looking at six 10mm round white freshwater pearls, fully drilled ... don't have to be top-of-the-line, but nice quality.

However, I am not having much luck finding sites that sell loose pearls. I don't really want to buy an entire strand, as that would be a tad more than I can afford, or need.

Does anyone have any advice?

Give my office a call on Monday or Tuesday. We will definitely be able to help you out. We probably have a lot of loose from partial hanks, and some pieces that are gem-rounds which we typically use as earrings. We drill the pearls in the office ourselves so the diameter would not be an issue either.

Thanks so much -- I will do that!
