FAQs

Baltic amber jewellery gained significant popularity during the Art Deco era of the 1920s and 1930s, often fashioned into chunky, graduated beads that highlighted the natural inclusions and warm colour variations of the fossilised tree resin.

Traditional pieces are typically composed of natural fossilised tree resin from the Baltic region, hand-carved or polished into beads, and traditionally strung on silk or cotton cord, frequently featuring screw barrel clasps characteristic of the period.

Authentic vintage amber is lightweight, feels warm to the touch rather than cold like glass, and often exhibits natural irregularities, microscopic air bubbles, and successful results under standard authenticity tests such as electrostatic charge or UV light fluorescence.

In modern styling, a substantial butterscotch amber necklace serves as a striking statement piece against minimalist knitwear, while un-worn pieces can be displayed in velvet-lined jewellery trays or glass cloches on dressing tables as decorative objects.

Amber is a relatively soft organic material that should be stored away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, kept away from perfumes, hairsprays, and alcohol, and cleaned gently using only a soft, damp microfibre cloth without harsh chemical detergents.
