Different pearls work well for different necklace designs. For a traditional strand of pearls, you will want round or nugget pearls. Buy according to uniformity of shape and color. You can also make a necklace of white dancing pearl beads from rice pearls. You will want to buy rice pearls that are drilled through the top. They look great as drops on a necklace or in a stylish, asymmetrical design. Look for rice pearls with uniform luster and color and very smooth surfaces. You'll need a lot of these pearl beads on a strand because of the way they're drilled, so make sure you purchase enough.
