Amber is not a stone, it is fossilised resin of ancient pine trees.Millions years ago, a forest of pines existed in the present location of the Baltic Sea. At one time, the Baltic forest covered an area around the Baltic Sea and the Scandinavian Peninsula.
In AD 77 Roman scientist and philosopher Pliny the Elder wrote in \"The Natural History\":
\"Amber is produced from a marrow discharged by trees belonging to the pine genus, like gum from the cherry, and resin from the ordinary pine. It is a liquid at first, which ....... is gradually hardened by heat or cold, or else by the action of the sea, when the rise of the tide carries off the fragments from the shores of these islands. At all events, it is thrown up upon the coasts, in so light and voluble a form that in the shallows it has all the appearance of hanging suspended in the water.One great proof that amber must have been originally in a liquid state, is the fact that, owing to its transparency, certain objects are to be seen within, ants for example, gnats, and lizards. These, no doubt, must have first adhered to it while liquid, and then, upon its hardening, have remained enclosed within.\"
Since ancient times Baltic amber was treasured for its natural beauty, warmth and unique subtle glow.Will be posted on the next working day after a purchase by Royal Mail Tracked Service.
