[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9423646, member: 2844"]Cut amber with those irregular facets. Could be 1910s or a bit older, with those metal links. What we now call flapper length necklaces were already worn in the 1890s. A hard life can do that to amber, but it is still a lovely necklace. A bit of TLC will make it look good again. Grease from her nose?:wideyed::confused: The Polish amber institute advises olive oil.
