Having given little thought to amber (other than as an occasional preserver of prehistoric insects), it has come as a surprise to see that it's a big deal in Scandanavia and in the Baltic states. Evidently some of the biggest deposits of amber in the world are in the Baltic states and some of the major cities here were known in the middle ages for their amber artisans. Shop after shop beckons and assures one that yes! they do in fact have trinkets made of the hardened sap. Some cities here even have whole museums devoted to amber.

It's nice to know that I get get hardened sap if I need it. Some of the pictures of rings of it are very cool.
