About the Item
This beautiful antique butterscotch amber necklace features a graceful strand of graduated natural amber beads displaying rich honey-gold and creamy butterscotch tones. Each bead is individually shaped and polished, showing the organic beauty and subtle variations that make genuine amber so captivating.
The necklace measures approximately 31 inches in total length, with the largest center bead measuring about 1¼ inches by ⅝ inch, and the smallest bead about ⅜ inch by ¼ inch. The total weight is 78.25 grams, giving it a pleasingly substantial yet comfortable drape.
The condition is very good for its age, with minor edge flakes and small chips typical of antique amber. These natural imperfections attest to the necklace’s authenticity and age, adding to its vintage charm and character. The surface retains a warm, soft luster throughout.
A fine example of early 20th-century Baltic craftsmanship, this piece would make a standout addition to any amber or natural-gem jewelry collection.

Amber is fossilized tree resin which has been prized as a gemstone since antiquity. It has been used as jewelry from 13,000 years ago with amber ornaments having been discovered in Mycenean tombs. Amber and amber extracts have been used medicinally in traditional Chinese medicine to "tranquilize the mind". Natural amber produces a distinct pinewood fragrance which when heated under the right conditions, produces oil of amber, likened to musk, an aphrodisiac. In ancient China it was customary to burn amber at large festivals and celebrations. Baltic Amber is particularly sought after for its beautiful honey yellow color.
