Also referred to as “Northern Gold”, Baltic Amber is the fossilised resin of ancient trees. Over 40 million years old, the organic substance was produced by pine trees which grew in Northern Europe - specifically from southern areas of present day Scandinavia and nearby regions of the Baltic Sea bed. The Baltic region is home to the largest known deposit of amber. The resin that makes up Baltic Amber was released by the ancient trees to heal damage to a branch or trunk and it is said to still retain its healing properties when worn against the skin.
