Natural Fossil Amber Bead Strand (7mm)

The Warmth of Ancient Forests

This strand features 7mm polished, olive-shaped beads of genuine Baltic amber. Unlike mineral gemstones, this organic material is fossilized tree resin, formed over millions of years. This fossil grade is prized for its natural dark inclusions—tiny specks of ancient plant matter or earth trapped within the translucent cognac-colored resin. Each bead is a tiny piece of natural history, lightweight and warm to the touch. This strand from our Amber collection is perfect for crafting your own traditional or modern jewelry.

Craft, Pair & Care for Your Amber

This 7mm polished strand of amber beads is perfect for crafters. Design your own high-vibration bracelets, necklaces, or traditional tasbihs. The fossil inclusions make each bead unique. For a beautiful design, pair this warm strand with the deep blue of Lapis Lazuli from our Lapis Lazuli collection, or the earthy, protective energy of Turquoise from our Turquoise selection. To care for your amber, avoid all harsh chemicals, perfumes, and ultrasonic cleaners, as the resin is porous. Cleanse gently with a soft, damp cloth and lukewarm water.
