Gdańsk Baltic Amber Artisan Jewelry

The Amber jewelry in this Collection comes from Gdansk in the Baltic region of Europe. Gdansk set the tone for Amber jewelry making in the 16th century. This was a period in which exquisite crafts such as Amber jewelry flourished in Gdansk. Artistic Amber jewelry was Gdansk's contribution to European culture, and Gdansk was the place where diplomatic gifts were commissioned for exchange between monarchs. Some of these pieces are now displayed in European museums.

Most of the artisan jewelry in this Collection is individually handcrafted and because each piece of Amber is unique, no two pieces of jewelry are ever the same.
