In the time of Thebes - 2000 B.C. - the Pharaohs were already using Amber in jewels, perfume and medicine.
The world's capital at the time, the rarest products converged towards its palaces, and Amber from the Arabic peninsula or Lebanon got renowned throughout this period.
The dynasties which followed until the Roman domination used this precious substance, widening their supplies to the borders of their empire.
With the expansion of trade in the Mediterranean, the Arabs, successors of the Egyptians, were also interested in this material with its multiple uses.
Arab doctors believed in the effectiveness of amber to cure all sorts of illness, and in the eyes of people, Amber quickly became a symbol.
It was these Arab doctors who gave the name of ANBAR to the product we appreciate so much.
