Amber necklace with Tibetan turquoise pendant in silver

A striking necklace made of amber in many shades, from honey yellow and cognac to deep cherry red, with individual almost black beads in between. The irregularly shaped beads alternate between clear translucent and milky matte, and four grooved silver beads add quiet accents. In the center hangs a spindle-shaped silver pendant with a set turquoise, framed by relief-like cloud and floral motifs, with a yellow tassel underneath.

Turquoise and amber have been among the most prized jewelry materials in Tibet for centuries and are often worn together. The necklace has no clasp and is slipped on over the head.
