A great gift and the natural choice for your child (not suitable for children under 36 months). A 'teething' necklace made from 500 year old Baltic Amber. Our amber 'teething' necklace is produced by Popolini, one of the largest baby organic suppliers in Europe. The necklace is made from naturally shaped pieces of amber and each bead is double knotted to ensure a strong and safe necklace. Amber is said to have anti-inflammatory properties, which helps to reduce inflammation during teething. Amber necklaces work best worn against the skin. The warmth of the skin will allow the body to absorb the healing element in amber, succinite, which has been said to act as an anti-inflammatory and an analgesic property and can reduce inflammation, clear red cheeks, ease pain, stimulate the thyroid to reduce drooling. Results can be seen in about a week after continuous use. Due to the nature of the resin there is no consistency in the colour of the beads. Baltic Amber is the only effective type of amber for teething as it contains a higher percentage (8%) of succinite.
