History/Background: The earliest known use of worked amber beads by man was between 7,000 and 11,000 BC in Denmark and southern England. Amber beads have been found in Egyptian tombs dating to 3,400 BC. By the Bronze Age (3,000 to 1,000 BC), there was significant trade of the gemstone throughout the region of the Baltic Sea. As early as 600 BC, amber's curious property of generating static electricity when rubbed with wool was reported in Greece. The Greek word for amber was "elektron" (meaning "sun gold") and it is the root for the word electricity. In the first century AD, Roman Emperor Nero dispatched an expedition to Scandinavia to find "northern gold," which resulted in the establishment of important new trade routes for the Empire.
To seal a peace treaty in 1717, the incomparable Amber Chamber was given to Russian Tsar Peter the Great, from Prussia. It was constructed of six tons of amber arranged in ornate wall panels. The Nazis seized the treasure in 1944 and its whereabouts remain unknown to this day. Artists from the People's Master Artists of Applied Art, in Latvia, decided to re-create the lost ''amber room'' in 1975. This project included archaeologists, critics, librarians, archivists and many artists. A new room was created in exacting detail from photographs taken before the war and was opened to the public in 2003. Each panel was re-created using blown-up images to exact the detail and tones of the original panels. More than 3,000 patterns were utilized for just one panel, so it is easy to understand the complexity of re-creating this masterpiece. This is the most famous room in the Catherine Palace in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Metaphysical/Healing Properties: Associated with the solar plexus or yellow chakra, amber has long been believed to be a stone of healing, used to alleviate problems of the stomach and liver. It has been used as a talisman for courage and self confidence.
