Straight from my own private stash comes this great faceted amber necklace. This true period treasure dates back to the roaring twenties or even earlier (some call a strand like this art deco, others classify it as Victorian or Edwardian) and measures approximately 16.5" long.
The necklace is a lovely graduated strand of hand faceted transluscent amber beads, 32 in all. They are a rich orange and are natural and NOT reconsituted...rare indeed!! When held to the light they lighten up a bit, but when worn they are like a rich deep honey...truly a special strand! It was sooo hard to capture the true beauty of these, but I guarantee that they are authentic and hand faceted. The amber are on the small side, making this suitable for a young girl, and each bead is separated by a pearl spacer...I do not think the pearls are real.
In excellent condition, the necklace is free of damage or repair, and the beads are not chipped or scratched. I would recommend restinging and putting on a better clasp, though...I'd get them knotted if I was going to keep them. All in all, a great piece to wear and collect for any appreciator of authentic amber jewelry! |
