Product Details
- Important Note: These necklaces are designed to be worn, not to be chewed.
- How It Works?
- Among other things, amber is a natural analgesic (aka pain reliever) and anti-inflammatory. When amber is worn directly against the skin, the body's warmth causes the amber to release trace amounts of healing oils on the skin.
- Commonly known as 'teething jewelry,' baltic amber has been a natural and traditional European remedy for teething discomfort for hundreds of years.
- The necklaces are handcrafted in Lithuania and are made of authentic Baltic amber, the most esteemed amber in the world. The translucency of the amber depends on the amount of air bubbles and their distribution contained within a piece of amber. Some believe the color is related to the type of tree source.
- Succinic acid is the most beneficial component of the amber. It is scientifically accepted that the darkest-colored amber generally contains less succinic acid than lighter colors. The more cloudy or opaque the amber, the more succinic acid it contains.

- The Design
- The necklace fastens with a screw clasp, and the necklace cord is knotted between each bead.
- Jewelry is lead-free and phthalates-free. It meets all CPSIA requirements for children's jewelry. Also per CPSIA-regulations, we provide you with the place and date of manufacture of the children's jewelry you purchase, along with the wholesaler's company name should you need to contact them.
- Use
- For best results, baltic amber should be worn closest to the source of pain, which is why infants wear the amber as necklaces.
- If you would prefer, you could wrap the necklace around baby's ankle, then put slim-fitting socks on baby. The sock will help keep the necklace in place in addition to helping warm the amber (so it then releases succinic acid).
- Care
- To care for your baltic amber, clean with lukewarm water and a soft cloth.
- Avoid detergents or cleansers when possible, as these substances over time will leave a residue on the amber that will inhibit its ability to release its healing properties into the skin.
- It is best to remove the jewelry at bath time, or when at the pool.
- Warning
- Necklace contains small parts. Children should be supervised while wearing their necklaces, and it should be removed or moved to the ankle while child is sleeping.
- Be safe and use common sense - when it doubt, take it off!
