These Baltic Amber multicoloured nugget beads are stunning. Baltic amber can age from 15 million to 44 million years old and the level of oxidization and sun exposure dictates its colour. The older the amber the more transparent it becomes. It can range from bright yellow to golden and then to dark rich brown and black depending on how old it is and its source location.

These beads would look amazing in jewellery designs using silver or gold findings or mix up your design and make them unique using some of our other gemstone beads - turquoise looks amazing with amber.
