{"product_id":"statement-size-baltic-amber-pendant-with-custom-sterling-silver-bail","title":"Statement Size Baltic Amber Pendant with Custom Sterling Silver Bail","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is not your typical amber pendant. At approximately 4 inches long and 1\/2 inch deep, this unusually large piece of genuine Baltic amber makes a dramatic statement while retaining the warm, organic character that makes amber so beautiful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe amber has a rich, deep honey color and an organically shaped silhouette that follows the natural character of the raw stone. Rather than being cut into a uniform geometric shape, it has been carefully polished to a high, lustrous shine while preserving its natural form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pendant is finished with a hand-forged solid 925 sterling silver bail. The silver bail is made specifically for the substantial size and weight of the amber, giving the piece a strong, handcrafted finish and allowing it to be worn on a substantial necklace chain or cord. Heavy sterling figaro silver chain necklaces can be purchased separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout the amber\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBaltic amber is fossilized tree resin that formed millions of years ago and is found around the Baltic Sea region. Unlike gemstones that form as minerals, amber is organic in origin, which gives it its distinctive warmth, light weight and beautiful range of natural colors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece is a deep honey-colored Baltic amber with a translucent quality that allows light to pass through portions of the stone. The color can appear warmer and more golden in direct light and deeper and richer in softer lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIs this real Baltic amber?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. This pendant is made from genuine Baltic amber rather than plastic or synthetic imitation amber. Because natural amber formed from tree resin, it can contain natural variations, inclusions, internal textures and small irregularities. These are part of its natural character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy is the pendant's shape irregular?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe amber has been left in an organic, free-form shape rather than being cut into a perfectly symmetrical pendant. The goal was to preserve the character of the original piece while giving the surface a smooth, highly polished finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow large is it?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a true statement-size pendant:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLength: approximately 4 inchesDepth: approximately 1\/2 inch\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the amber is naturally shaped, measurements and proportions may vary slightly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow should I wear such a large amber pendant?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of its size, this pendant works best with a sturdy necklace chain or cord capable of supporting a substantial pendant. It can be worn as a dramatic focal point on its own rather than needing additional jewelry to make an impact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmber care\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmber is relatively soft compared with most gemstones and needs a little extra care. Remove the pendant before bathing, swimming, exercising or sleeping. Avoid perfumes, lotions, hairspray, chlorine and other chemicals coming into contact with the amber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo clean it, gently wipe the surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry it immediately. Do not use ultrasonic cleaners, steam cleaners, harsh jewelry cleaners or abrasive polishing compounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen storing amber, keep it away from harder gemstones and jewelry that could scratch its polished surface. Individual storage is ideal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA one-of-a-kind statement piece\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of unusually large natural Baltic amber, an organic free-form shape, deep honey color and a hand-forged sterling silver bail makes this a distinctive statement necklace pendant. The natural character of the amber means no two pieces will have exactly the same appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aura Charms","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67805577380144,"sku":"MS-9625-HON-AURA C","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0676\/4593\/1824\/files\/20250227-121705.jpg?v=1789708862","url":"https:\/\/auracharms.com\/products\/statement-size-baltic-amber-pendant-with-custom-sterling-silver-bail","provider":"Aura Charms","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
