Amber Rectangle

Amber rectangle set in a sterling silver frame that allows full viewing of this interesting pine fossil resin full of natural inclusions and bubbles! Baltic Amber is petrified tree resin from a family of coniferous trees. It's formed by heat, pressure, oxygen and light exposure, and the most important factor is time. Amber is like a time capsule that lets us take a peek into the prehistoric times - tree resin would trap everything it touched before it had a chance to harden. Therefore every piece is unique with its own story of inclusions.

Amber fascinates many people. It is the only stone that is not cold to touch, it warms in your palm and is very light in weight. Baltic Amber has been used since ancient times in jewelry and ornaments, for perfume, and for healing in Folk Medicine. This attractive orange color is called honey amber, which makes it even more appealing! Please see below for a size reference.
