This shop has to be seen to be believed. It is literally full of amber in all shades, shapes and sizes, including brooches, necklaces, earrings, bracelets and pendants, some set in gold or silver. Some pieces contain fossilised creatures which, depending on your point of view, can either add to the intrigue of the piece or freak you out a little! I wandered in looking for a present for a friend and it took about half an hour to narrow it down to one piece, there were simply so many things to choose from. The man who runs the store was able to offer advice and was extremely helpful, and I came away with a gorgeous pendant. The store is located just off Oxford Street, in St Christopher's Place, a haven of calm away from the busy main street.
