Featured Cloisonne necklace, silver.

Please give any information on this product. Silver thread and latch. Large element diameter 24 mm. The thread appears to be in resin.

 

Love these but they’re not cloisonné. I believe they’re Mauritanian silver wire inlaid wood beads. @Any Jewelry

 

Yes they are. I'll see if I can find previous threads about these beads.

 

Here they are:

Forgot to say, Stepan, I love your necklace.

 

Many thanks to everyone. So fast and so professional. I am amazed. I read the topics that you suggested and made additional photos of the structure. I think it will be interesting whether it is wood or resin.

 

It is wood.

 

Yes, I also think it's a tree. But this is not ebony. What are the options ?

 

Are you sure? When ebony dries out a bit, it can look like that.

 

My guess is that it is ebony which is the traditional wood used for these beads and IMO yours are very nice. Regardless they’re definitely wood.
