What Makes It Uncommon

Inspired by her own mom's protective nature, Britta Ambauen designed this sweet bear-and-cub necklace. "She's always been fiercely protective of my brother and me," she says, "backing us up and taking our side." Give your own favorite mother a sparkling reminder that their own cubs—no matter what age—need their mom to help lead the way.

  • The playful piece features a sterling silver mama bear with up to four bronze cubs in tow, capturing the strong bond and tender love a mother has for her little ones.
  • 18-inch sterling silver chain.
  • Handmade in Seattle, Washington.

Beautiful design, cheap quality, short chain

Bought this as a Mother's Day gift for my wife. Upon arrival, I was underwhelmed. It was smaller than expected and the chain was incredibly short. My wife has an average size neck and this was practically a neck choker design. Not at all what was pictured. The chain is also very thin and seemed to be poor quality. Given these issues, and the relative high cost, I've decided to return it.

Response from merchant

Thank you for your message, and I’m so sorry to hear the necklace didn’t meet your expectations, especially since it was meant as a Mother’s Day gift. That’s certainly not the experience we hoped to deliver. We work to be transparent with each item's size.. The measurements for the Mama Bear Necklace are listed on our page as 18" L. We’ve received many positive comments on it, with no trend in issues. I’m sorry that it wasn’t a great fit for your recipient.

Charming Necklace, cheap chain

The design of the necklace is exactly as expected. The quality of the chain is disappointing.

Compliments daily

Received as a gift from my BFF after I raved about hers. I've received compliments almost daily. I sleep & shower with it on. Rarely take it off. It doesn't tarnish. It's so fun!

Looks great with impressive craftsmanship.

Great gift for my wife to have a symbol of love between her and all her bear cubs. She absolutely loves it. Looks amazing with nice craftsmanship. A little on the pricey side but you get what you pay for given the amount of time, skill and materials used to craft this.

My wife absolutely loves this necklace.

This was a gift for my wife. She's a proud momma bear to our kids and a bunch of their friends and this necklace is a perfect expression of that. She absolutely loves it. Highly recommend for the Momma Bears in your life.

I ordered the mama bear and 3 cubs necklace. Does the material tarnish or it it gets wet, ruin the metal? Thanks

Verified reply from Valerie

The metals are prone to tarnish if not properly cared for, however, it can be easily removed with cleaning. It would not be permanently damaged.
