How to Identify Natural Amber

Not every beautiful stone is genuine amber. Here are five simple signs to look for: • Natural pattern — each piece has its own unique structure, shades, and natural inclusions. • Lightweight — natural amber is very light compared to many other stones. • Warm to the touch — amber quickly takes on the temperature of your hand. • Static electricity — when rubbed with wool, amber can attract small pieces of paper. • Unique appearance — natural amber beads are not perfectly identical to one another. At Aless Baltic Amber, we work exclusively with natural Baltic Amber and do not use synthetic or imitation amber. Each piece is carefully selected to preserve the natural beauty and unique character of the stone. The most reliable way to confirm authenticity is through laboratory testing and a certificate of authenticity.
