This is from a list of short descriptions for a magazine. Unfortunately, I don't have any photos to accompany these descriptions and this one has me stumped.

necklace strung on rigging line
Hard to tell, but sounds like some sort of yachting rope/cord/line being used in place of beading thread. Rigging line comes in a variety of thicknesses and materials (fibre, metal, etc.) so I think this covers the largest base of possibilities.

Nevermind what I said about metal rigging line! Got confused... this doesn't actually exist to my knowledge. Rigging line is made of textile fibres, like a thin rope.

Round Thimble
Round Thimble is a ring attached to the sail rope to fasten other ropes and thus the sail itself. A possibility, but thard to tell from a list of course
