Description
A sterling silver amber pendant is a classic jewelry look, but why not add some whimsy, as in this purr-fect amber cat necklace? Polish artisans create this funky feline's body using lemon Baltic amber—see the photos at left for examples of the variation possible in each one-of-a-kind stone. The face, tail, and legs in this cat necklace are crafted from curls of sterling silver, adding movement to each unique piece.
This jewelry item comes packaged in a white box (pictured).
