Amber is a fossilised tree resin found commonly in Baltic regions. It has been prized as a gemstone for its colour and natural beauty since Neolithic times, and was often worn by the Vikings as a means of decoration. Although usually recognised for its deep brownish-orange hue, amber occurs in a range of colours, ranging from clear white to near black. Amber often features impurities such as oxygen bubble, veins, fragments of bark or cracks which form when the tree resin hardens. This quality guarantees that every piece of amber is unique.

An enchanting gift celebrating the beauty of nature.
