Vessel Baltic amber and oxidized sterling silver large scrolled disc earrings with locking earwires. Round cabochons of honey Baltic amber form the centerpiece of these oxidized sterling silver disc earrings made with elaborate scrollwork. The earrings measure approximately 1 1/4" in length, as measured from the top of the sterling silver lockwire, by 1" wide (diameter). Made from gem-quality Baltic Amber from Poland and Lithuania.
Baltic amber is the fossilized resin or sap from extinct prehistoric coniferous pine trees which formed a huge forest 40-60 million years ago at the present location of the Baltic Sea. Stone Age sun worshippers and the early Greeks and Romans believed that wearing amber kept one healthy and young.
