Vintage 1930s Cherry Amber Phenolic Necklace 132g Red Translucent Beads
This exquisite vintage necklace features a strand of large, glowing cherry amber phenolic resin beads, dating to the 1930s retro era. Weighing an impressive 132 grams and measuring 43 cm in length, this piece showcases the rich translucent red tones that collectors prize.
Each bead displays subtle internal marbling and depth, creating a warm glow under both natural light and UV. The beads are smoothly polished and strung on the original thread with a classic screw-barrel clasp, a hallmark of mid-century European craftsmanship.
Known as phenolic resin cherry amber, this material was a highly sought-after substitute for natural Baltic amber during the early 20th century. It has since become collectible in its own right, especially in heavy strands such as this one, which rarely survive intact in such condition.
