“Here we are, trapped in the amber of the moment.” - Kurt Vonnegut

Since the ancient times Amber has been a mysterious substance - always alive and constantly changing, similar to our human existence. In a way the theory tends to lag behind the processes of nature, for a long time we felt a lack of literature on Baltic Amber. Most of the existing books written on Amber subject were dedicated to scientific research, geology or history while a short, simple and up-to-date handbook did not exist.

After months of hard work Amber Pieces has published an eBook entitled "Baltic Amber Handbook" to offer a glimpse into Baltic Amber world.  Our goal was to collect as much up-to-date information as possible for amber lovers and to put it in such way that we would read it with a great interest ourselves.

Written in 'paparazzi style' and accompanied by vividly colored photographs, it aims to pique the interests of readers and get them to play an active role in Baltic Amber discovery process.
