Baltic amber
Do you know that about 70% of amber jewelry sold in the world was made in Poland? And nearly 90% of Polish products made of amber embedded in silver, such as necklaces, rings or bracelets, are exported.
Baltic amber, also known as ‘Baltic gold’, is a natural fossil resin with decorative and healing properties. Amber ointments and tinctures are said to treat diseases of the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, joints and headaches. However, wearing an amber necklace has a healing effect on the functioning of the thyroid gland.
