No. Period does not depend on the suspending material. Since the expression derived is:

T = 2Pi(l/g)-1

Of course we rely on some conditions.

1) the string is torsion less

2) the amplitude of oscillation is to be small

3) some massive material is to attached so as to keep the string under tension.
