<p>[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 332442, member: 2844"]Amber. Beautiful egg yolk amber, most likely Baltic. That rough cavity on the back of one of the stones is good, a sign that it is natural amber.</p><p>My guess is Poland, no specific Polish marks, which means pretty recent. Polish silversmiths love the Art Nouveau style, which is why a lot of their jewellery looks older than it actually is.
