Two years ago when I went up to Bisbee with my family for new years I went into this huge antique mall and found this decent sized back of old real amber beads. I bought it and planned to make some jewelry out of it. Late last year I made my first bracelet out of some of the beads. I am pretty proud of how it turned out! This one I am keeping for myself. I will be making more similar to this style eventually and sell those.

So I found this old bead necklace that had what I can only assume was real Amber beads so I made it into a bracelet that uses wire as its base to which the beads are strung onto
