The stars of this show are black amber (yes, it is genuine amber) beads that range from 11mm to 14mm. All have been precisely carved with Asian symbols. I've flanked them with smaller Baltic amber beads, and spaced the larger beads with deep red seed beads. The 18" strand closes with a dainty vermeil toggle. Richly coloured, beautifully designed, and a pleasure to wear: it must be from SPARKLE PLENTY. All of our one of a kind and limited edition artisan beaded jewelry is individually handcrafted in our studio in Los Angeles, California.
