Like a mosquito encased in golden resin, amber is inextricable from the history of Poland and Kraków. Baltic amber is the most desired of all, and tourist-laden Kraków's location on the Amber Route means you've got one of the best selections in the world, crafted by master jewellers. Truth in advertising, this Schubert showcase shop really is a wondrous world of amber, with items ranging from rings and pendants to dragons and chess sets. Also at ul. Powiśle 7 (Sheraton Hotel, H-7).

I've sent multiple emails requesting information on matching some additional pieces to earrings that my husband bought for me on one of his business trips to Krakow. I even included a picture of the earrings that I'd like to have a matching necklace and bracelet. No response at all... I'm shocked that I've not even received an acknowledgement of receipt. I will continue to contact amber jewelers in other areas of Poland; may be a jeweler in Warsaw would be interested in helping me.
