wow, they look wonderful! Lucky you! It's amazing that Amber is so well known all over the world! The colours are just a delight !
Eva, this are just left overs, small pieces(in size) and several with cracks. But the color is wonderfully warm.
Love the composition of the picture, too: The ammber beads are looking fantastic against the wooden background! Very beautiful...
nice colection and good wear. like a lot.
repaque, the real amber has always large holes and with time, they get even larger. the wire inside pilishes them and lefts a trace as a second hole. it gives them also the encense smell
Very true Ait, because amber is rather soft. That is also why people who were aware of this protect often the large pieces with strips of leather in between to protect them against rubbing each other. I have noticed that also with the necklaces of West Africa.
Maybe poor in comparison with what you had. But they look pretty good to me!
They look nice;
Thank you Amber.
i love
