Silk of pure quality is the best material known for stringing pearls. A series of experiments were made with every available fiber of sufficient dura- bility from every quarter of the globe, but silk alone was found to possess the strength, the flexibility, and the smoothness necessary to permit a very fine set of threads to pass through an opening as small as the drill hole of a pearl.
