Description
North African piece, made with amber resin and silver beads. The large, smooth, orange-yellow beads are characteristic of African "Pillow" Amber or copal resin, often used in traditional Berber jewelry to mimic natural amber. • Metal Accents: The ornate, patterned metal beads interspersed between the amber are frequently described as coin silver or filigree silverbeads, often handcrafted by artisans in regions like Morocco or Ethiopia. • Construction: These necklaces are traditionally strung on twisted wool cord or heavy string, sometimes ending in a simple knot or tassel.
