Baltic amber is a fossil resin produced by pine trees which grew in Northern Europe about 50 million years ago.
Colours of amber. As no other kind of amber in the world, Baltic amber is marked by a great wealth of varieties,
resalting from its internal structure, inclusions and degree of weathering.
Usually Baltic amber is yellow or bright yellowish. The colours of amber range from
white, yellow, brown to red. There is greenish, bluish, grey and even black amber.
Amber can be absolutely transparent or absolutely opaque.
Amber is not always one-coloured: the unique combinations of two or more colours and
shades can be found. For these reasons amber becomes attractive, charming and unique.

Amber is not only a semiprecious stone,
but also a witness of life dating back to at least 40 million years.

for palaeontologists and a subject of interest of hobbyists and collectors.
According to ancient myths, amber is tears shed into the Eridanus by Heliads grieving
after the death of their brother Phaethon, who was thrown into the river;
rays of the setting sun hardened in the depths of the sea.
A legend from Polish region Kurpie has it that amber is human tears
from the time of the forty-day rain, and according to a Kashubian legend
It comes from "this lightning that strike so loud".
