Since ancient times ornaments made of amber found on the Baltic Sea shores have been kept in royal treasuries. They are discovered even in the tombs of Egyptian pharaohs who decorated their crowns only with the most precious and rare stones. This string comprises pure translucent pieces with nuances of olive. Rather modest at first glance, it displays a delicate taste and is a genuine masterwork.
