Our unique silver and amber necklace is valued highly in Africa. Amber originally from the Baltic sea and from the coast of Morocco is prized for its color and medicinal properties. It has been thought to cure a variety of ailments such as poor sight and fever. By tradition Tuareg jewelry is made of silver the pure metal blessed by the Prophet. All desert people who can afford to do so, wear silver. Our necklace consists of 5 large silver balls each with an applique design; 3 of which has a wide ban of high grade older amber. Interspersed between are orange round-lets and tiny pure silver beads. Along the amber chained necklace are two 1 1/4 inch long silver cylindrical segments, known as charm cases, that originally were designed to hold holy phrases. This stunning, well crafted indicator of wealth not only is a promoter of good health but serves also as a talisman of good luck!
We have not cleaned the silver portions of the necklace that is why they appear darker. We thought it best not to in order to preserve the age factor. This will be done upon request. This selection is over 20 years old.
