Amber is one of the few gems not of mineral origin (others are ivory, pearls, etc.). This highly-prized fossil resin was exuded by coniferous trees 40-60 MILLION years ago in the area of the Baltic Sea, and sometimes the dripping resin trapped insects, leaves, bark and other things we now call inclusions. Baltic Amber is also referred to as succinite.
Natural Baltic Amber is a living stone. The processes of vaporization, polymerization, isopolymerisation, and oxidation, which caused the once liquid resin to harden so much that it can be ground and polished, have not yet ended. Probably this constitutes the beauty and healing effect of the stone.
