AMBER - POLISHED PIECE

40 million years old


From the Baltic coast of Eastern Europe


Polished pieces of Baltic amber without insect inclusions.

Amber is one of the most beautiful and fascinating of all natural substances.  It was originally resin that was exuded from trees millions of years ago. 
 
It takes millions of years for tree resin to fossilise into amber. Amber is extensively used for jewellery as it is easily carved and polished.
