Vintage Baltic Amber Brooch — Carved Butterscotch Leaves & Amber Berries, Kaliningrad Amber Combine, USSR | KIZIMA®

A museum-grade piece of amber history — hallmarked. A vintage gold-tone brooch from the Kaliningrad Amber Combine (USSR): a graceful gilded branch carrying three leaves hand-carved from solid natural butterscotch amber — the creamy "egg yolk" shade most prized by collectors — and three round berries of natural clarified cognac amber glowing with inner sun-sparkles. The pin bar carries a factory hallmark on the reverse.

Verified natural amber — not pressed. The leaves are carved from whole natural stones. Authenticity verified by KIZIMA® — the only Baltic amber manufacturer in America. We know this material the way a jeweler knows gold: our own workshop tradition comes from Königsberg, the very city whose amber manufactory became the Kaliningrad Amber Combine in 1947.
