Description

The listing, "BALTIC AMBER" TESTED, AND PASSED... THIS IS THE RAW REAL DEAL! has ended.

All amber is fossilized tree resin. Baltic amber in particular (mined from near the Baltic Sea) additionally contains a substance called succinic acid. Historically it is believe that when worn on the skin, body heat causes Baltic amber to release an oil containing succinic acid, which if absorbed into the skin, might act like a natural Ibuprofen, blocking pain and reducing inflammation. Succinic acid is an alkalinizing acid (like lemon juice) so it wouldn't add to your body's acidity.
Each piece is handcrafted by Lithuanian artisans, known locally as 'Masters', who carefully polish and round the shape of each Baltic amber bead so it rests gently against the skin. This ensures maximum skin contact and comfort.

Baltic Amber is fossil of resin. Although not a mineral, it is generally classified as a gemstone. A common misconception is that Amber is made of tree sap. Sap is the fluid that circulates through a plant's vascular system, while resin is the semi-solid amorphous organic substance secreted in pockets and canals through epithelial cells of the tree.
Copal, is often sold as Baltic amber. With enough time Copel would become amber, but Copal isn’t truly fossilized. Copal is ‘young tree resin’ (1 thousand to 1 million years old) whereas true amber would be closer to 40 million years old.

Me too, and it's hard to get hold of true Baltic! Did you know the way they used to (and still at times do) polish them by using them as teething rings for babies? It soothed their gums as well!
