Oh and thank you for helping the other day and fixing Hugs Trixe Great looking character. What else are you loooking to do to the necklace? Ok I re-read---you want to make the roap sparkle. That would be a shader thing I'd imagine. Hmm.

If you want it to look shiny and Gold like this you'll need a reflection map. Attachments:

If you're ok with it looking like this, it'll just be a matter of tinkering with the diffuse, specular, and ambient colors. Attachments:

It might just be a texture that you can get. Then again, when you're selling these things, you have to be careful of the TOS.

Reflection maps come in all sorts of flavors.
Some are pictures, such as a sunset.
Some look like gold or silver tin foil.
Still others look like someone had fun with a gradient.
Perhaps try using a few different ones that come with other texture sets, then see if you can cobble together something similar on your own?
I came up with one that looks a bit like a "satin finish" from layering in a few different monochromatic fabrics and gradients, but each person will have his or her own preference.
There are some redistributable reflection maps out there. I know because somehow I acquired a few. Unfortunately, I cannot recall where I got them. (oops!)

Trixie quick way to make one is use the clouds filter, most paint progs have one but under dif names lol, depends on the paint proggy but either pick colours in filter or use colourise after to get the colours u want (for gold I's use a very pale yellow and a deeper orangey colour) adjust until some of highlights are blown out (white ) but not too much
or if u want to be clever do it in poser using a clouds or cells node (or a mix of both lol ) if u do it in poser save it for use another day ;-)
