Amber and Silver Jewelry for Sale

Here are the two Baltic amber necklaces I have for sale (click on photo to enlarge):


I purchased these during the time I lived in Moscow. The two-tone necklace is approximately 27" long with the uniquely Russian drilled amber clasp (you just screw it together - you'll never lose it!), and is $25. The light colored necklace is smaller at approximately 22" and more delicate, but it has lots of clearly visible inclusions in the amber segments, making it truly unique. You might not be growing any prehistoric plants or dinosaurs from it, a la Jurassic Park, but it's pretty darn cool. $30 for that one.

And here are the two Mexican silver bracelets I have for sale (click on photo to enlarge):

I purchased these bracelets on a trip through the Yucatan. They're fairly long(both approximately 7 1/2 inches.) The smaller one (which needs silver polish!) is sterling and has lapis lazuli beads set in the silver (and is a much darker blue than the photo shows) and is $15.

The larger bracelet is a bold, big artisan piece (for a large wrist) with ten malachite disks set in silver. It is marked 950, meaning it has a higher silver content that sterling (925) and less likely to tarnish than sterling - it has a beautiful glow to it. $40 and worth every penny. The photo does not do it justice.

Clearly, I am no National Geographic photographer. :)

Contact Melissa @ x5249 or mjordan@ngs.org if you're interested in any of the pieces.

Thanks for looking!
