  • Description

    Although it is neither a stone nor a crystal, but a fossilized resin, amber is considered the only gemstone of plant origin. We work with amber from the Baltic region, the largest known amber deposit. This amber has its origin 44 million years ago, in the Eocene.
    Many properties are attributed to amber, such as that it is a powerful healer and cleanser for the body, mind and spirit, and also a protector for children as a relief for dental pain and colic.
    The use of amber in jewelry dates back to the Stone Age, 13,000 years ago.
    This brooch, more than a jewel, is a collector's item that will light up the chest of the woman who wears it.
