8008

Vintage Kauri Gum Bracelet


Item number: 8008
Date: see description
Price: NZ$140.00

Old kauri gum – panels of it strung together in an elasticised bracelet. New Zealand kauri gum is the fossilised resin of the ancient native New Zealand kauri trees. This is the New Zealand version of amber, but most of it is not as old as genuine European amber. This bracelet would have been made early 20th century – the gum is hundreds of thousands of years old. It measures 40 mm high and the panels are approx. 7.5 mm thick. Very good condition – very natural crackled finish. The elastic is old, but although parts of it are worn, it is still doing its job well. If it broke, it is an easy restring with new hat elastic. If you wanted a higher shine to the amber (it’s currently matt), a jeweller could probably buff it up. Quaint piece of NZ history.
