They're the greatest thing since pacifiers and the fact that they're "drug-free" makes them even better. I've been into natural amber for a long time (3 babies ago:) and now I'm using it for my premature arthritis...There's no end to pain relief needs so I'm very happy amber works for this, too. I buy my jewelry and gifts for family and friends from AmberArtisans.com I like the fact that the owner of the company comes from Lithuania but lives here. I know I'm getting original amber from him. I've also gotten great service quick response to any questions, fyi! Rosemary Just like to say that Julia Fenster is absolutely on target with amber teething necklaces!

Of course as a parent of two small children (toddler and pre-k) I appreciate your concern. The key is to purchase a necklace that is child's sized and only child sized, and of course you want to check that the piece the clasp is attached well etc. I have had a piece like this for 4 years and have had 2 children wearing them in my home - and not one has ever managed to open it or put it anywhere near their mouth (they are simply way too short making it entirely impossible to reach mouth). Barring a defect of some kind, these necklaces are not at a chocking hazard at all. Thanks for the great comment.
