<p>[QUOTE="bluumz, post: 435738, member: 649"]While one side of my ancestry is English, the other side is Polish. Among my mother’s jewelry collection is quite a bit of Amber received from Polish relatives in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. My favorites are the polished large nugget necklace and the teardrop pendant.
