Antique Moroccan Amber with Carved Bone

Prized for their unequaled beauty and striking color, Moroccan amber has been collected for centuries among the Berber tribes of the mountainous regions of North of Africa. Such beads conveyed both status and wealth and have been passed down from one generation to the next. The focal point of this necklace is a single Berber amber bead with depth of color and texture that it speaks to a rich history.

Strung with hand-knotted carved bone beads, this necklace is 32 inches long. The focal bead is 1.25 inches in diameter.
