Details   Green Amber Art Spider Brooch Fantastic, outsized giant green amber spider. Specially selected, gorgeous green amber oval amber cabochon one inch long with rich, saturated color & lots of depth & dimension. Spiders are deeply embedded in our consciousness, myths & culture. From Little Miss Muffet to Daddy Longlegs, to Arachnae & Shelob, these eight legged webspinners, hunters & guardians are a storied part of our journey. Wonderfully constructed with a forward tilt which allows the spider to appear to be climbing the wearer. Far too interesting & lovely to hide away in a stuffy jewelry box. You may wish to keep your new companion closer at hand, to admire often. A terrific piece for a collector or as quite a daring fashion statement for the right person. These types of artistic "old school" pieces which use large pieces of beautiful are now uncommon. Lightly antiqued sterling silver with open construction. Standard closure with safety clasp. per wikipedia: True spiders have been found in Carboniferous rocks from 318 to 299 million years ago, and are very similar to the most primitive surviving order, the Mesothelae. The main groups of modern spiders, Mygalomorphae and Araneomorphae, first appear in the Triassic period, before 200 million years ago. After 130 million years ago fossil amber preserves details of spiders' anatomy and behavior, including mating, killing prey, producing silk and possibly caring for their young. In a few cases amber has preserved spiders' egg sacs and webs, occasionally with prey attached.
