The Kaliningrad Amber Factory has made a 63-centimeter amber earring, setting a world record. Previously, no one had made an amber earring longer than 30 centimeters.
The set consists of two asymmetrical earrings measuring 23 and 63 centimeters. They were presented for the first time at a Russian designers’ show during the Days of Creative Economy forum in St. Petersburg.
The amber pieces are set in gold-plated silver and strung on titanium thread. The long earring is a cuff designed to distribute its weight across the ear, while the shorter one has a classic English clasp.
