Mediterranean peoples, Arabs, Egyptians and the Chinese. Amber gems
were not only valued for their unique beauty but also for their healing
and protective qualities. Amber was revered by these ancient peoples

What is Baltic Amber? -
Baltic amber is a fossil resin produced by ancient pine trees, which
grew in Northern Europe, around the Baltic sea as long as 300 million
years ago. As the climate warmed the conifer trees began exuding large
amounts of resin and as the millennia progressed, these exudations
became stable.
Pieces of amber, naturally torn from the Baltic
Sea floor, are carried ashore by waves and collected at ebb-tide.
Harvesters, furnished with nets at the end of long poles, wade into
shallow waters of the Baltic Sea and drag their nets through seaweeds
which may contain masses of entangled amber. Some rake amber up from
boats. Amber is generally yellow or yellow brown and translucent, and
it is very beautiful when polished.

amber and has made these offerings possible. On her trips home to
Gdansk, Kasia hand-picks some of the finest Baltic amber necklaces
