Material Monofilament

What stringing material should I use for amber?

Everything I've read says silk - can I use monofilament or Fireline without it damaging the beads?

I don't see why either of those would not work, but you might also consider some coated beading wire (necklace wire). If the beads or pieces aren't really heavy, you could probably use a pretty light gauge.

Or, if the holes are large enough, maybe something like the rattail cord or even some leather, if you want a different look.

You might try posting your question to a beader's website, such as Beader's Showcase (http://www.beadersshowcase.com/) or Beading (http://beadjewelrymaking.ning.com/) and see what some of the "experts" have to say.

Good luck! Amber is so pretty!
