Collection: Amber

Baltic amber is made from fossilized tree resin. Amber contains succinic acid, which is thought to have anti-inflammatory and painkilling properties. It is believed that when the beads are worn next to the skin, succinic acid is released into the body, providing relief from the pain and tenderness of teething for babies and toddlers.

What are the benefits of amber beads for babies?

Proponents of the amber teething necklaces say that when the necklaces are worn, the body heat warms the amber, releasing the succinic acid, which then gets absorbed into the skin. It's said that succinic acid is a natural analgesic, or pain reliever, and can also help boost the immune system and reduce inflammation.

Safety Guidelines:

• Supervise your child when he/she wears the necklace, bracelet or anklets.
• Make sure the necklace is the correct size. When around the neck, it should not be long enough for the child to bring it to his/her mouth—you should be able to fit two fingers between the necklace and the child’s neck, but the necklace should not be long.
• Make sure each bead is separately and individually knotted, with proper safety clasps like a pop clasp safety release.

• Remove any amber bead jewellery before you leave your child alone and when they go to sleep.
• Never let your child chew on the amber beads.
