Description
Amber is a hard translucent fossilized resin produced by extinct coniferous trees of the Tertiary period.
Ancient bug specimens are often trapped inside! People have been using it as adornment since 15,000 B.C. Amber is believed to deflect negative energy and aid in freedom from stress. The world’s largest deposit of amber is along the Baltic Sea, but it is also found in the U.S. and Central America. Mohs hardness: 2-2.5.
