This necklace measures approximately 16 inches. To modify the length, simply adjust the length of chain on both sides respectively.
- Begin by cutting the chain into two equal lengths of 6 inches each. Set aside.
- Next cut off 3 inches of wire and make a wrapped wire loop. Before closing the loop attach it to one end link of one length of chain. String on one pearl and make another wrapped wire loop, this time attaching it to one closed twisted jump ring before completing the wrap. Continue in this manner, adding another pearl to this jump ring and add another jump ring. Continue until you have added five jump rings and once you add the sixth and final pearl, attach the last wrapped wire loop to the second length of chain.
- Next open one jump ring and attach it to one end of the chain and to one lobster clasp. Close the jump ring. Open another jump ring and attach it to the other chain length.
- Finally to attach the pear pendants to the closed jump rings, open one jump ring and attach the 9mm pear to the first closed jump ring, then move to the second jump ring and attach the 11.5mm pear, and in the center attach the 16mm pear. Then in reverse order, the 11.5mm pear to the fourth and the 9mm pear to the fifth and final closed jump ring.
