7.5-8.5mm White Potato Freshwater Pearls

Description

These 7.5-8.5mm White Potato Pearls are a lovely potato shape. They're perfect for combining with other natural gemstones and beads to make unique jewellery.

The beads vary in size from approximately 7.5mm - 8.5mm. Pearls are traditionally used extensively in bridal jewellery, and these would work well in Tiara designs as well as elegant bridal jewellery. The strings measure 40cm long, there is approximately 44 beads per string (this varies depending on the size of the beads). These are available to buy as 1 string or individual beads.

The 7.5-8.5mm White Potato Pearls have a generously sized hole, which is approximately 0.7mm. Larger pearls such as these are often strung into knotted necklaces giving you a classic piece of jewellery that will last a very long time. The knotting between the beads stops the pearls from rubbing together. As an organic material the pearls can, when rubbed together, scratch and chip each other.

For help making simple jewellery like the bracelet shown the video below shows you how to add a necklace end to the thread that these pearls are strung on. It's easy from here to add a clasp to make a pearl necklace!

You can find other projects and videos for inspiration on our YouTube channel. We also have a wide range of Preciosa pearls, ideal if you need a wider range of colours. As well as a small range of freshwater pearls.

      Where can I find the shop?

      Once you’re in Nottingham it’s quite easy to find us as we’re bright purple! Here are our top tips on getting into Nottingham City Centre or give us a call if we can help.

      Things to note when visiting Nottingham city Centre. Our shop is situated in a clear zone between 10am and 4,30pm. Only buses and trams are allowed on this street between these times. There is disability on street parking just down and around the corner from us (Angel Row) or behind the Royal Centre tram stop (Wollaton Street).

      We suggest using the Tram if you’re visiting Nottingham City Centre. This can be cheaper than Nottingham’s parking charges and if you are not used to Nottingham then you will also avoid the sometimes confusing road network in the city centre. There are several Tram park & rides which can make life much easier. They can be found approx. 1 mile from Jct.26 on the M1 or in Clifton if you use Jct.24 coming from the south and travelling on the A453. More info here.

      There are also several car parks near us including the Euro car park at the top of our road (it is quite a tight multi storey). Or on street parking the closest of which is Wollaton Street.

      Royal Centre Tram Stop: We can be found approx. 100 metres from the Royal Centre Tram Stop. Just follow the tram tracks downhill into the city centre. You will see us on the right hand side opposite the old Debenhams building.
