Amber is the oldest museum of prehistoric insects. This rare organic gemstone has preserved thousands of species of tiny creatures that once became trapped within it – from flies and beetles to rare finds of lizards or frogs.
When the resin of ancient trees fossilized, it created a perfectly sealed environment without oxygen, which is essential for the decomposition of organic matter. Moreover, amber contains substances that prevent bacterial activity and naturally desiccate the trapped bodies. Due to these properties of amber, we can peer millions of years into the past and study the distant ancestors of today’s insects in an astonishing state of preservation.
Within the 19 segments of this amber necklace, various species of dipteran insects are preserved – a window into prehistoric times that you can wear around your neck.
The necklace clasp is made of sterling silver Ag 925/1000.

Fascinating Facts About Amber
Amber has long been believed to have beneficial effects on health — and it makes perfect sense. After all, amber is the fossilized resin from prehistoric trees, and resin has always functioned as nature’s healing sap. It protects trees from pests and, when bark is damaged, immediately forms a protective layer.
Ancient scholars such as Pliny the Elder and Hippocrates already wrote about the beneficial properties of amber. Baltic amber contains 3 to 8% succinic acid, which is believed to support the body's natural defenses. Additionally, amber is electronegative, meaning that when in contact with the skin, it ionizes and helps regulate electrolyte balance. It also possesses antibacterial and antiseptic properties. Amber tincture is traditionally used to support immunity, ease cold symptoms, reduce fever, and relieve muscle and joint pain. In traditional Chinese medicine, amber was included in herbal decoctions for its calming effects.
