RARE Berber?Antique Gilt on Silver Prayer Beads filled with Amber - 46 Repousse Beads.
I have never come across such a unique piece. There was one quite damaged bead (see last photo), and it fell off but I noticed it was filled with a resin of sorts, suspected it was amber. Tested positive for Amber.

At present there are 46 beads, excluding the broken one.

Repousse beads with sterling silver inner and gilt outer strung on a silk thread cord, which indicates age, from the thread to the closure. Really nice to see.

There is one bead which has damage to it and another damaged bead, but less severe.
Length is almost 14 inches, beads measure 7mm.
