Amber is a very rare type of plant mineral that was formed by fossilizing resin (sap) from trees 50-250 million years ago on sea days. The resin, which did not get into the water, gradually weathered in the air and disintegrated. Only pieces of resin under water, thanks to the pressure of the water, hardened perfectly and without the access of air they have been preserved and have survived to this day. Baltic amber is a type of fossilized resin with a higher proportion of succinic acid - up to 8 %.

Beads are absolutely natural without any dye (it is not a restructured or any other devalued and worthless type of beads, where it is sporadic whether they can still be described as amber, as they are semi-synthetic or fully synthetic forms of "amber", or rather ordinary resin, which only pretends to be real amber). These cognac-colored amber beads were only slightly heated to obtain a more intense color. It is still a real natural amber.
