FISZ 24 | 2116 31 May 2007 / #2Are you talking about Amber when you say PL jewelry? Amber is sold in almost every jeweler. Just cheaper in PL :)

tkoch1016 25 Jun 2007 / #6I know of a great store in Hamtramck, MI (near Detroit) called the Polish Art Center that has a web site, my family has been shopping there for years, I send my family gifts from there store all the time. Their selection is amazing and its family run, I deal w/ the same person everytime I call, but anyways if your interested heres the link for the amber section: polartcenter.com/Polish_Amber_Jewelry_s/121.htm
gloios 12 | 76 1 Aug 2007 / #7I heard that a lot of the Amber sold in tourist areas of Poland is fake so be careful.Also check out polart.comI was looking for an Eagle for my chain for the longest time. Thought I would need to wait till I went to PL but they had at Polart.
sapphire 22 | 1241 1 Aug 2007 / #8does anyone know how to tell the difference between real and fake amber?
Zgubiony 15 | 1276 1 Aug 2007 / #9Yes. You can tear a small corner of notebook paper the size of this () and rub the Amber ona cotton shirt ( to cause friction) if it picks up the paper it's real. Glass will not pick it up :) Hope that helps.

Grodski 16 Aug 2008 / #11If you are in New York City go to Grenpoint, Brooklyn. It is the Polish neighborhood. Manhattan avenue. If in Long Island there is a Polish Town in Riverhead. There is a Polish Festival there August 16 & 17th. Lots of fun. polishtownusa.com
