Naturally transparent yellow amber (about 10% of all mined amber) is often found with natural impurities and inclusions in it and pure fully translucent chunks are rare and highly valued. Small transparent yellow chunks (0.5 – 1 inch long) can be found along the shoes of the Baltic Sea in Kaliningrad (Russia), Lithuania, Latvia, Denmark. Often yellow amber is specially treated and purified with high pressure. Inclusions are normally found and also very visible in this kind of amber.
Since February 2022 Etsy began to ban vendors from selling amber necklaces and bracelets. I opened a shopify store with the same name: Amber Regina. Please check available necklaces and bracelets or feel free to email me.
