New Baltic Amber Beads
We at the Bead Bazaar are pleased to introduce a new selection of Baltic amber beads! Available single or by the strand, our lovely Baltic amber comes in a wide range of colors; traditional amber tones, cognac amber, dark Baltic Amber (also known as cherry amber), and Baltic green Amber. We also have a selection of Caribbean green Amber beads. While Baltic green amber has a muted yellow tone, Caribbean green is a more vibrant stone. No matter the color you choose, all of our new amber gives off a warm autumn glow.
Baltic amber comes from northern Europe, specifically Lithuania, Denmark, northern Germany, and former Prussia. It’s nicknames are “Prussian Gold” and “Lithuanian Gold”; amber is considered a large contributor to Lithuania’s cultural heritage. Baltic Amber was formed by the fossilization of sap from a large forested region now covered by the Baltic Sea. The original forest existed between 35 and 50 million years ago, and the amber has been hardening ever since then. Each piece of Baltic Amber is truly a piece of history.
New Agate Beads
Also new to our store is a colorful selection of agate beads. We offer the rich tones of fire agate and sardonyx; web agate and blue agate can also be found among our new pieces, including some large, striking blue agate pendants. Web agate is especially appropriate for the upcoming Halloween season, so don’t hesitate to drop by and pick up one of these natural wonders!
