Site Showcases Baltic Region Amber Artisans
.
Andzia's Amber, aka Amberjewelry.com was one of the very first websites to market amber over the internet. They showcase the work of Polish, Latvian & Lithuanian artisans & jewelry designers who are still creating gorgeous, heirloom-quality amber jewelry in modern, classic & designer styles.

In 1995, on Thanksgiving Day, Andzia stepped off an airplane in Warsaw to begin her first ever trip abroad, a woman who could speak only a few phrases in Polish, traveling alone.

Thus began a vision quest, one familiar to many Americans whose families remember the ways of the Old Country & who long to explore their roots. Andzia & her father, who had passed away earlier that year, had always spoken of taking this trip to his ancestral homeland, together. Honoring that promise, Andzia applied for her passport & booked herself a flight, immediately falling in love with Poland & the Polish people.

Traveling through the Lakes region & through mountainous Zakopane, she encountered a mysterious gem over & over again set in bright sterling silver, or sold strand by shining strand. Amber spoke to her from lit shop windows, market stalls, glimmering at the ears or throat of a beautiful Polish woman passing by.

Little did she know at the time that the beautiful Baltic amber she brought home in her suitcase wrapped in a scarf and began sharing with friends and family across the kitchen table would turn--by popular demand--into a thriving business, with a gallery in Chinchilla, Pennsylvania, and a web site at http://www.amberjewelry.com/.

The traditions of amber craftsmanship are worth preserving, as is expanding the mythic scope of Baltic amber & human history.  Andzia's Amber regularly attends Amberif, the premier international trade show held each year in Gdansk, Poland,  historic seat of Baltic amber & other major European trade shows.

Searching for select designs in limited quantities, they work directly with small shops & individual artists in the Baltic region. Their philosophy allows them to offer an ever-changing assortment of stylish natural Baltic amber jewelry.

As a Certified Member of the International Amber Association in Poland, they also follow strict guidelines concerning the production, quality & sourcing of Baltic amber jewelry. Their amber goods and company have been granted a Certificate of Recommendation by the International Amber Association in Gdansk, Poland.
