Description
 
Bozena Przytocka is a designer of artistic amber jewelry based in Gdansk, Poland. Here is a perfect example of her use of amber and shells to create a beautiful and unique necklace composed of 24 strands of polished amber stones in a variety of shades from milky white to dark cherry.  This artistic piece is accented with a few sea shells which complement the amber and are all strung on knotted chocolate brown twine.

Amber (Bursztyn in Polish) is fossilized tree sap that dates back 40 million years.  It comes from all around the world, but the highest quality and richest deposits are found around the Baltic Sea.  During the colder months, when water density reaches its highest point, amber floats up from the seabed and is washed to shore by the waving sea. Amber is the only fossil resin that contains 3 to 8% succinic acid, a multi-purpose therapeutic substance, that was prescribed by early physicians for headaches, heart problems, arthritis and a variety of other ailments.  In ancient times it was carried by travellers for protection.  All of our amber is directly imported from the Baltic city of Gdansk, Poland.
