Stone
When considering the gems you need to ask yourself what is Amber and what can it be used for. Not all gems are used in all jewelry pieces. Amber color needs to be taken into consideration.

Amber should be finished following the international gem-cutting standards to ensure it is a high quality gems.

Baltic Amber (succinite) is a fascinating stone. We are really proud that it is strongly associated with Poland and especially with Gdansk which is called the World Capital of Amber.
MYTHS AND LEGENDS
According to ancient Greek myth, Amber was the tears of Heliades shed into the River Eridanus after the death of their brother Phaëthon. The legend says that angry Zeus threw Phaëthon into the river after the boy used his father’s golden chariot to ride across the sky. The Chinese used to believe that Amber was the soul of a tiger which had died and passed into the earth converting into pieces of amber. Amber was deemed to give its possessor the courage of tiger. What's more, Amber was a stone sacred to Freya the Viking goddess. After the disappearance of her husband Odin, she wept. Her tears falling on rock turned to gold and when they fell into the sea, they turned into amber. For Native Americans, the Slavic people of Northern Europe, and in Neolithic times, amber was a sacred symbol of the sun. To early Christians, amber signified the presence of the Lord.
WHAT EXACTLY IS BALTIC AMBER
Amber is a fossilized conifer resin produced in the Tertiary forest at least 40 million years ago in Northern Europe - from southern regions of the present day Scandinavia and nearby regions of the bed of the Baltic Sea. Tertiary trees were large and produced great amounts of resin. They were coniferous trees from the family Pinaceae, resembling such species as today’s Cedrus (cedar from the Atlas Mountains) and Larix (larch). The climate became warmer and trees started to exude big amounts of resin. If you want to learn more about Baltic amber and feel as if you were living in that time you need to visit the exhibition Life in the Amber Forest” devoted to amber and amber inclusions which for the past 18 years have constituted the subject of research of the Laboratory of Amber Inclusions at the Department of Invertebrate Zoology and Parasitology of the University of Gdansk.
WHAT MAKES UP AMBER?
Amber consists of 79 percent carbon, 10.5 percent hydrogen, and 10.5 percent oxygen. Studies have shown that it contains over 40 compounds as well as Succinic Acids and additive salts of potassium, sodium, and iron.
The richest lodes of Baltic amber occur in the Zambian Peninsula and by the Bay of Gdansk. As no other kind of amber in the world, Baltic amber characterizes a great wealth of varieties, resulting from its diverse internal structure, inclusions, and degree of weathering.
