Amber polisher Frants Kristensen has brought amber and shows different colors of amber and the difference between raw and polished pieces. Frants tells how the amber was formed millions of years ago and how it ends up on our shores. And last but not least, he explains how you can find amber yourself. Which wind is the most favorable, and what should one be aware of concerning water levels and the different types of beaches.

It is also important to know how amber is deposited and what it washes up with.

We take a walk on the beach and try our luck. Maybe we'll drive to another beach if the chance of finding amber is better there.

Frants has over 60 years of experience as an amber collector and has written several books about amber.

The course is for both children and adults.
