2nd Edition Recently Released

Hey there! Check out my book about Pearl knotting.

My name is Warren Feld. I am a jewelry designer with 40+ years of experience. In my book, I teach you the basic steps in Pearl Knotting. I’ll walk you through how to start your piece, tie knots between pearls, and how to end your piece. Simple instructions. Lots of diagrams and images.

What you will learn

In this book, i teach a non-traditional pearl knotting technique which is very easy for people to learn and do, does not use special tools, includes step-by-step instructions, a simple way to tie knots, shows clearly how to attach your clasp and finish off your cords, and achieves that architectural perfection we want in our pearl strung pieces,

Why This Class Is Important

There are many, many variations in technique.

They all work.

Yet most are very difficult for the beginner — especially those traditional techniques which rely on tools for making and positioning the knots.

Over the years, Ihave seen how students, when following traditional pearl knotting methods, or methods which utilize some more traditional techniques and approaches, become dissatisfied with their results.

And give up.

Pearl knotting doesn’t need to be this hard.

Warren’s Way

After many, many years, enduring many concerns, debates, demonstrations and arguments about which way is best, I came up with my own preferences —

o Using ideas, goals and parts of techniques from several established methods
o Adjusting them, based on my experiences with students and teachers
o And my knowledge of good design
o And how to balance artistic concerns with functional ones.

The Book

I used these ideas and techniques, which I reached and put them to many test, to create a non-traditional pearl knotting technique which i call
“Warren’s Way”.

4 variations

The book covers 4 different variations for starting and finishing your piece, including
 1. Attaching directly to the clasp
 2. Using French wire bullion
 3. Using clam shell bead tips
 4. Making a continuous piece without a clasp

I also present the steps for adding cord.
