50 peaces of loose Baltic amber beads Size of beads around 4-6 wide in millimeters Description Amber is the lightest weight & softest of all gems. It is one of only a handful of gems of vegetative, not mineral, origin. The others are pearl, jet & coral. Amber is warm against the skin. In contrast, minerals and glass are heavier and cooler than room temperature. Stones like jade, lapis and turquoise feel cool or even cold to the touch, but amber feels warm. This, along with its obvious sunny color, is why it is known as -sunshine. True amber is light enough to float in salt water, if not weighed down by other substances (like silver), but it won't float to the top, it floats like soap would in a bathtub. This quality probably helped in its discovery-inhabitants of the Baltic Sea area can still find raw amber washed up on the shore after storms.

GORGEOUS and 100% accurate product
I hope this product comes back, we know natural amber isn't grown in a day, but I was able to make one of the most beautiful bracelets I have ever owned. For people who want to purchase this, everyone should know that it came as expected, a good color distribution, the sizes were accurate, and they were real- according to the tests I did. There are amazing holistic benefits to wearing amber, many children wear it to help with teething, believe that or not! It has been known to help adjust cranky children as well, please, enjoy the photos. :) I have received MANY compliments!

High Quality Baltic Amber
The package of beads that came was smaller than I anticipated, but seem to be high quality Baltic Amber. There is enough in a single order for one bracelet or small necklace.I intend to use these beads to make my mother a diffuser/anti-inflammatory bracelet for her arm that became disabled after her stroke.

Pretty beads! As other reviewers said though, they are small. Some are tiny chips...Also the hole is super small. Im not sure what type of cord will fit through the tiny hole. The look Im going for, wire will not be appropriate. Have to consult someone who knows more about beading, because I have no idea how to string these with such a miniscule hole! Really good variety of colors, and polished beautifully. I love them, but am disappointed that I cant use them as I had originally intended as a necklace. Also, my bag had 53 beads in it, as advertised. But that is not enough to make a necklace. Maybe a bracelet. Maybe.

Not worth the money.
Bought these beads to use for teething necklaces for my children. The description states they are 4mm-6mm in size. About half the beads were that size. The rest are very small, & 4 beads were chipped or broken. They passed the float test, so they may be authentic, but they don't have the distinct amber scent to them, even when warmed. I'm not very happy with them. Would not recommend others to purchase these, as the price is waaaayyy too high for what i received.
