From the seller's notes
This is a beautiful, authentic vintage Soviet-era necklace made from natural, raw/tumbled amber (бурштын / янтарь). Measuring 43 cm (approximately 17 inches) in length, it sits beautifully around the collarbone. The necklace features organically shaped, asymmetrical beads showcasing a stunning natural color palette that ranges from warm golden honey to deep, rich cognac and dark brown. Unpolished or "rough" amber like this is highly sought after not only for its striking, earthy aesthetic but also by those who appreciate the traditional concept of "healing amber." It is a timeless piece of natural Eastern European vintage jewelry.
