Description

Amber Necklace
Eocene
Baltic Region
Russia

Amber from the Baltic region is often a bit more yellow than material from other localities, such as the Dominican Republic, and it is not as well-known for containing plant and animal inclusions, but it is still highly prized and equally decorative. This 'chip' necklace offers an amazing mix of light and dark as well as clear and opaque pieces of the organic substance. The continuous necklace measures some 18 inches (46 cm) around and has no beginning or end. From Russia, the material has a variety of visual appeal, and its inherent "brindle" patterning due to the differences in the chips makes this one 'must-have' gift item.
Measurements: 18.11 x 0.74 inches (46.00 x 1.87 cm)
