It is the only gemstone that originated from the plant kingdom. Its value is determined not only by its beauty, but also by its antiquity. Although classically amber is a warm honey hue, it can also be black, whitish and even, rarely, bluish. Historically, amber has also been called sea wax, sunstone and tiger&#039;s soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Kad_un_kur_meklet_dzintaru\"><\/span>When and where to look for amber?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The greatest chance of finding amber is <strong>after large storms from the S (south) or SW (southwest) direction<\/strong>Then the sea throws them ashore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Kurzeme coast<\/strong> is especially generous to amber seekers. <strong>Pavilosta and Liepaja<\/strong> are the most popular places that boast large quantities of amber. Also <strong>Jurmalciems<\/strong> and the beach strip between <strong>Bern\u0101tis and Liepaja<\/strong> are known as good places to find amber (and unfortunately also phosphorus).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Even <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/daivings.lv\/dzintars-baltijas-juras-piekraste-ka-to-atrast\/\">On the coast of the Gulf of Riga<\/a><\/strong> Amber can be found! For example, diving club instructor Valters Preimanis found a piece of amber almost the size of a Euro coin on the beach of Jurmala on February 12, 2022, after several major storms. Major storms wash away not only parts of ancient ships, but also these sun stones.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Search in places where there are <strong>lots of seaweed<\/strong>because amber is often washed ashore with them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Also search for places where there are <strong>a lot of stones<\/strong>, because amber is often found between them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"864\" height=\"864\" src=\"https:\/\/daivings.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dzintars-Pavolosta-2021.gada_.jpg\" alt=\"Dzintars in Pavolosta in 2021\" class=\"wp-image-6767\" srcset=\"https:\/\/daivings.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dzintars-Pavolosta-2021.gada_.jpg?v=1706275375 864w, https:\/\/daivings.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dzintars-Pavolosta-2021.gada_-300x300.jpg?v=1706275375 300w, https:\/\/daivings.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dzintars-Pavolosta-2021.gada_-150x150.jpg?v=1706275375 150w, https:\/\/daivings.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dzintars-Pavolosta-2021.gada_-768x768.jpg?v=1706275375 768w, https:\/\/daivings.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dzintars-Pavolosta-2021.gada_-12x12.jpg?v=1706275375 12w, https:\/\/daivings.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dzintars-Pavolosta-2021.gada_-230x230.jpg?v=1706275375 230w, https:\/\/daivings.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dzintars-Pavolosta-2021.gada_-350x350.jpg?v=1706275375 350w, https:\/\/daivings.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/Dzintars-Pavolosta-2021.gada_-480x480.jpg?v=1706275375 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Praktiski_padomi_dzintara_mekletajiem\"><\/span>Practical tips for amber seekers:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The best way to find amber <strong>early in the morning or late at night<\/strong>when there are fewer people on the beach.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Be patient!<\/strong> Finding amber can take time and effort.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wear <strong>comfortable shoes<\/strong>because you will have to walk on sand and stones.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Don&#039;t forget about <strong>hat and sunscreen<\/strong>, especially in summer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take it with you <strong>water and snacks<\/strong>because searching can be tiring.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Leave the beach clean!<\/strong> Place all waste in the designated containers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ka_atpazit_istu_dzintaru\"><\/span>How to recognize real amber?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Distinguishing real amber from other stones or dangerous white phosphorus is very important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Touch:<\/strong> Real amber is warm and pleasant to the touch.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Appearance:<\/strong> It has a transparent or yellowish color.

They believed that amber increases strength and cheerfulness of spirit, attracts luck, strengthens health, thwarts the plans of ill-wishers and protects from the evil eye. Amber brooches were already mentioned in Homer\u2019s \u201cOdyssey\u201d, it adorned the headdress of the Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun. During the reign of the Roman emperor Nero, merchants were sent to the northern lands specifically for Baltic amber, because it was considered the most valuable in the world. In ancient times, a piece of such a sun stone could be exchanged for a powerful slave. The Baltics, rich in forests, are still an amber land on the shores of the Amber Sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Searching for amber on the Baltic Sea coast is a great way to spend a day.
