Baltic Amber Cut Base Free Form

Baltic Amber Cut Base Free Form (shop SKU AMBAR768) is offered as a free-form crystal online and at the bookshop on West 14th Street.

Amber is fossil tree resin, typically golden to brown, sometimes with visible inclusions. It is softer than most gemstones and should be kept away from heat and solvents.

A cut base means the bottom has been sawn or ground flat so the piece can stand. Natural stones vary in color, clarity, and shape, so the piece you receive will have its own character even when the weight, grade, or size is listed.
