A wonderful necklace, in warm colors, protective, aged and so beautifully strung. I love this . Are they the protective pieces of leather in between the beads? That will keep the beads from diminishing because many amber beads got thinner and thinner from the rubbing against each other.
Again I love it Peter. They are so great to touch. Gr. Ingrid.
Dear Ingrid; Many thanks for your comments. There is nothing in between the beads. The dark etches are from use, dust, etc.. I will not clean it but just leave it like that. I like the rustic look on it. With kind regards. Peter
Sarah would help out in precicely pointing the very village where these are made.
unfortunately i d'ont believe these beads are genuine amber but rather recent imitation. they have had a large distribution these recent years being offered by dealers from many countries
