<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 938909, member: 5833"]Looking at the first photo some more, I think one whole segment has been lost, one of the smallest beads & its caps that should be just before the clasp on the right in that pic. Counting from the bead that looks largest to me & should be in the center, there are 5 beads between it & the clasp, only 4 from there to the right, for a total of 10 beads. You don't usually make a necklace with an even number of your main beads; if you do, you end up with a knot or a link of chain or some in-between bit at the center.</p><p><br /></p><p>Real question now is how to make it wearable & looking the way you want it. Are you wanting to recreate pretty much the same look?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
