The Amber Necklace is a story based on the final Christmas of a woman who had mastered the French language; attended symphonies and operas; stitched her own draperies; sculpted and fired figurines of foxes and raccoons; made an elaborate German-themed doll; sewed her own traveling wardrobe; painted flowers on her bedroom wall; sketched and wrote verses for her own Christmas cards; cooked for dinner parties; and loved to dig in the dirt in the early spring. Totally alive and infectiously passing on that enthusiasm to everyone she met, Claire was truly a remarkable woman whose recipes for Russian tea and Cheese Strata are used even today-not to mention her tips for enjoying an opera or properly pouring tea. In The Amber Necklace Claire exquisitely describes the natural process by which amber is formed, and, unknown to her, she paints a far greater picture of the golden amber in a person's live as that life becomes a finished product.
