Gdansk for centuries has been a capital of amber art.
Today the Baltic Coast still is rich with that "golden teardrop of the sun" as I call this fossil resin of the pine tree. Gdansk is attempting to keep the tradition of being the Amber Capital – as an amber altar is being built in one of Gdansk’s churches. It will demand about 7 tons of amber. It is worth remembering that about 50% of amber goes into dust while being polished. That is why it is so precious to the dwellers of the Baltic Coast.
Gdansk has many amber galleries specializing in making artistic jewelry as well as souvenirs. The city is also a founder and the main site of the International Amber Association – which was established to associate the amber artists from all over the world – to stop fake amber flooding the markets. This is why – the galleries in Gdansk which are federated in the Association always give the certificate while selling the amber pieces.
