Bab 83: Chapter 83: Amber Wand

Amber wands contain one or more pieces of amber: a large one for the wand's end cap, a small one at the wand's tip, or small ones along the wand's length.

Amber

Amber is a fossilized tree resin that ranges in age from 1,000 to 250 million years old. Baltic amber, the most common type, came from evergreen trees in the Scandinavian and Baltic countries and is from 28-54 million years old.

Most of the world's amber is found in the Baltic region of Poland, Estonia, Finland, and Russia. Amber has also been found washed up on the coasts of England, Norway, and Denmark. Other localities include the Canada, Czechoslovakia, Dominican Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Romania, and the USA.
