Museum Story
Prized since the Stone Age, amber—especially 40,000-50,000 year-old Baltic amber—is an organic gem that is appreciated for its naturally glowing translucence. Amber's timeless appeal is evidenced by the number and variety of amber jewelry pieces curated by our National Museums of Natural History.
