Handmade Baltic Amber and Silver Bead Necklace, Late 20th Century
Handmade Baltic Amber and Silver Bead Necklace, Late 20th Century
Handmade amber bead necklace composed of 36 individually shaped and polished amber beads, graduated in size from approximately 8 mm to 20 mm. The beads are linked with silver connectors and finished with a silver clasp. Estimated net amber carat weight of 260 carats.
The amber has been tested and confirmed as genuine, displaying a rich range of warm honey and cognac tones with natural internal inclusions typical of the material. The graduated bead arrangement give the necklace a sculptural presence and allow it to sit lower on the chest when worn.
The necklace measures approximately 40 cm in length as worn, falling at mid-chest, as shown in the photographs. Total weight approximately 68 grams.
1970’s production, this piece reflects traditional amber jewellery techniques associated with Northern and Eastern European workshops, where amber working has a long-standing history.
A distinctive and well-balanced example of handcrafted amber jewellery, suitable for both standalone wear and layering.
Very good vintage condition.
The amber beads show natural internal inclusions and minor surface characteristics consistent with age and material. Silver links and clasp are in good structural condition with light wear commensurate with use. No major surface cracks, repairs, or replacements observed. The clasp functions securely.
