The Beauty Of Green Amber
The beauty of the natural dark green colors of Baltic amber makes a truly stunning gem. As with any amber, green amber is formed by the fossilization of amber from ancient pine trees that lived between forty and sixty million years ago. The naturally clear amber from the trees is colored by the organic material from plants that get caught in the drying material. The organic plant material contains various chemicals that react...

On the reverse side, there is nothing worse than crawling into bed, turning off the light, tossing, and turning for hours on end, trying to get comfortable so you can get some sleep.
