Amber is a famous symbolic stone in Poland, and it has a long and rich history in the country. In the north of Poland there are a lot of pine forests and for millions of year the sap accumulated and hardened under the ground, and people began to harvest it and making jewelry out of it, which started the popularity of amber jewelry in Poland. My mother was gifted this necklace by her parents before she immigrated to the United States ,and she wore it when she came to this country. She has plenty of Amber jewelry that she took with her from Poland when she immigrated to the United States in the 90's.
