Student of the Experimental Design Studio looks on pieces of jewellery design and created by other students on Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk, Poland on March 10, 2026. Long coveted for its golden color, scientific value and alleged healing properties, amber is now coming into the hand of young Polish jewelers, bringing the ancient resin into modern times. Together with drills, sanders, blasters, and power saws which look like they belong to a bygone era, virtual reality stations are used to combine earlier tools with state-of-the-art technology at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk, a city on Poland's Baltic Coast known as amber's global capital.
