Step into history with this chunky Baltic butterscotch amber pendant, a true relic from the 1950s Soviet era. During this time, Baltic amber was highly prized, and jewelry from this period reflects a unique blend of craftsmanship and understated elegance.

Era: 1950s
Measures: approximately 1 3/4" x 1 1/2" (excluding bale)
Weight: 11.1 grams
Hallmarks: The metal is stamped with the official hammer and sickle inside a star mark alongside the 875 purity stamp, which guarantees 87.5% pure silver. It also features the 5ЯК maker's factory code.

While the front showcases a smooth, expertly polished butterscotch cabochon, a turn of the pendant reveals its fascinating natural history. The raw, unpolished back displays a distinct geological fingerprint and an organic resin flow channel. These visible ripples, layered bands, and ancient mineral deposits show exactly how the prehistoric sap pooled millions of years ago, serving as a beautiful visual testament to the amber's genuine Baltic origin.

As a finishing touch, it comes with 24 inches of satin cord while supplies last, making it ready to wear or gift. Own a piece of history and let this Soviet-era treasure add a touch of vintage sophistication to your collection.

For adults only.
