Description

This necklace consists of an unusually harmonious combination of two materials that could hardly look more different and therefore complement each other so beautifully: 59 natural amber stones and fine Akoya cultured pearls are strung together to form a long necklace. The clarified amber stones are slightly irregular and softly polished. They have a warm cognac color and each has an individual inclusion pattern of so-called sunflints, which sparkle vividly in the light. Amber is carefully heated, often in oil, to reduce cloudy areas and unify the color and transparency. The resulting fine stress cracks form those characteristic structures inside the stone when it cools, which reflect the light like small rays of sunlight and give the amber its particularly lively sparkle. The amber stones are arranged in a graduated pattern, becoming larger towards the middle and giving the necklace a beautiful presence. An Akoya cultured pearl is set between each of the warmly glowing stones, its soft lustre forming an attractive contrast to the golden shine of the amber. This creates a balanced interplay of light and surface: here the warm, almost sunny sparkle of the fossil resin, there the cool, silky shimmer of the pearls. The necklace was created around 1970 and combines the joy of natural materials of the time with an elegant, calmly flowing design. A practical spring clasp ensures secure and uncomplicated wearing comfort.
