Amber, an organic gemstone, is the fossilized sap of prehistoric trees which grew up to 50 million years ago. The stone has been used for jewelry since the time of Christ. The world's finest amber comes from the region around the Baltic sea.

This is a one-of-a-kind, genuine Baltic amber piece, handmade by Polish designers. We use the term "Baltic amber" only if the amber used is high quality, genuine Baltic amber. Don't confuse genuine amber with pressed amber or "ambroid" (pieces of amber embedded in plastic). When you buy from TibetShining you are guaranteed genuine gem quality amber, 40 to 50 million years old, and from Poland's Baltic Sea area.
