Baltic Amber is a fossil resin that comes from ancient trees, mainly pine trees, that grew in the Baltic Sea region millions of years ago. During the fossilization process, the resin solidified and formed what we know as amber.
Baltic Amber is valued for its beauty and unique properties. It is known for its wide range of colors, which include shades of yellow, orange, brown, and even green. Amber often contains inclusions , such as insects, plants or other particles, which make it even more fascinating.
In addition to its aesthetic appeal, amber is appreciated for its therapeutic properties . Amber is believed to have calming, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects when in contact with the skin due to the release of a substance called succinic acid.
Baltic Amber is often used in the production of jewelry, such as necklaces, bracelets and earrings, but it is also found in sculptures and art objects. Due to its unique geological history and aesthetic appeal, amber continues to be a valuable and prized gem.
