This interesting and exciting bracelet feature cherry amber and amber beads in sumptuous, sun-warmed shades and soft, asymmetrical shapes. A striking yet informal adornment, it suits all but the dressiest occasions. The single, 8-inch strand pairs deep cherry amber beads and golden yellow amber ones in varying shades and sizes. The balanced pattern features four round citrine beads and two 12-sided cherry amber beads evenly spaced on the strand and accented by smaller donut-shaped citrine and garnet beads. Definition between the color groups comes from blackened sterling silver circles. A sturdy, half-inch sterling silver clasp secures the bracelet with a toggle whose ends hold a garnet stud. A semi-precious substance from pine-tree resin, amber for jewelry is usually heated to improve its appearance, add sun spangles, or deepen the color. Worn and worshiped for its supernatural properties, amber is common in Greek and Arab prayer necklaces because the beads are soft and light enough to play through the fingers.
