What is so special about sterling silver Baltic amber jewellery? While often considered a gemstone, the glow of amber is not actually a stone, but a fossilized resin from ancient evergreen trees. This gives eco warriors an aura wrapped in sustainability that has become ever more important with jewellery manufacturers seeking ethical ways to distribute their fine jewellery designs. For this reason, amber gemstones are often referred to as organic gemstones.
The oldest amber discovered on Earth is approximately 320 million years old with younger amber stones typically less than 100,000 years old. Destino Jewellery, sterling silver and Baltic amber jewellery includes an elegant range of both lime green and yellow amber that stands the test of time thanks to its classic designs.
The value of amber oscillates with some variants achieving the most valuable levels as they exceed 320 million years old. For tree resin to develop into genuine amber, clearly many years must pass. Amber has been a popular choice since ancient times and amongst a variety of cultures. Greece, China and Northern European populations have all enjoyed high value amber and the so-called high-level properties attributed to this warm and powerful organic gemstone.
Destino Jewellery, sterling silver and Baltic amber jewellery is delivered in an elegant white leatherette designer jewellery box.
