In this blog I will tell you everything about Baltic Amber bracelets and necklaces for children.

Baltic amber

All Amber jewelry is made from genuine Baltic Amber. Every necklace is a handmade product from Lithuania. Since ancient times, Amber has been known for its healing power.

Amber has anti-inflammatory properties and is a natural painkiller. When Amber warms up to body temperature, the succinic acid starts to evaporate and stops inflammatory reactions.

Fossil resin

Amber is a fossil resin that comes from conifers. The resin was dripped from the trees millions of years ago and then petrified. Amber comes from the Mesozoic to the Quaternary. Amber is usually warm yellow to dark red in color, but there are also more green, blue or even black colored species.

Originate

The fact that many insects are found in amber did not escape the Romans. They explained this by assuming that amber was liquid when it covered the insects. They therefore called the stone gum-stone.

As is the case with the present-day pines, resin from the bark runs out of the tree from minor damage. This resin protects the tree against insects and fungi. In earlier times, large amounts of resin were produced by trees in the Baltic Sea region. After the ice age, the amber was washed out of the soil by melt water and ended up in the sea.

Natural painkiller

I am not allowed to claim that Amber helps to prevent pain from teeth that come trough or with other aches, but I do think that the acids from the resin have an effect on the body. Many parents indicate that their baby benefits from wearing an Amber piece of jewelry. So do what you think is right.

Safety

Every Amber jewel is handmade and there is a button between every Amber. If there is too much pressure on a piece of jewelry, it breaks, but because of the buttons not all beads fall off the band, only the one bead at the height of the break.

Use the bracelets and necklaces only under the supervision of a parent or from the age of 3 years and older. This jewelry is not for chewing!
