Ethiopian Trinket Necklace Material:Gold Plated amethyst or red garnetTraditionally, Ethiopian silversmiths hand make their jewellery using the lost wax method. The designed piece is moulded with wax, encased in clay and left in the sun to dry. Hot metal is poured into a hole at the top of the casing. This metal melts the wax inside, taking the shape of the wax. The cast is broken to retrieve the jewellery after the metal has cooled.
