"The green amber is more than I thought it would be. It is very clear and a great color. I always like getting the unusual gems, which JTV always has a great selection. JTV handles a lot of the non-norm, which I like as I collect more than care to make into jewelry. I give this stone an excellent rating. Who would have thought you would see amber like this."

Fast Facts
| A complex mixture of pine resins, acids and volatile oil compose the fossilized organic substance we know as amber. Dating back at least 30 million years, amber comes from the tree sap of certain pine trees. |
| Treasured since the dawn of civilization, amber has enjoyed at least 70 centuries of popularity and has played a key role in the development of multiple societies. |
| Amber is flammable and a match will cause it to ignite, creating a smell like incense. |
 The Baltic Sea is the primary source for amber. It washes ashore along the edge of the Lithuania or it is found through pit mining.
