    Inherited from my grandmother estate and I don't know whether these beads are Amber or something else. The clasp on the necklace and one of the earring sets has markings of 1/20-12k G.F. The other earring set with the seed pearls has no markings. The earrings are screwback. The only info I have is from the box the jewelry was in and I believe the name on the box is German, but I could be wrong. Any help as to what these pieces are is greatly appreciated as I don't have a clue ????

      Absolutely beautiful! Are the beads warm or cold to the touch? ( hold them against your cheek).
    3. Efesgirl Efesgirl, 8 years ago
      The earrings almost look like butterscotch amber or perhaps egg yolk amber.

      What a stunning combination of beads. The tones, textures, shape, there is a warmth to it, so beautiful.

      Try to rub them, then put hair / piece of toilet paper nearby. If they are sticking to the beads, possibly amber. At least this is what I do.

      Thank you! I didn't know there was a way to test Amber...I'm amazed at the wealth of information available on this site! :)
