Our Journey

How It All Started

We didn't start with a grand vision. We started with passion. In 2018, sorboovia UAB was born from a simple belief: that amber jewelry making shouldn't be confined to museums or expensive boutiques. It's a skill anyone can learn, and the process is genuinely rewarding.

What we've discovered over these years is that people crave authentic craftsmanship. They want to understand where materials come from, how techniques work, and why certain approaches create lasting beauty. That's what drives us. We're not selling quick fixes or mass-produced anything. We're teaching real methods that produce real results.

Our workshops here in Palanga give you hands-on experience with genuine Baltic amber and proper silver-setting techniques. You'll work with materials that have been treasured for thousands of years. The skill you develop? That stays with you forever.

What We Teach

Our curriculum focuses on practical skills that you'll use immediately. From bead selection to final polish, every technique is grounded in decades of regional knowledge.

Baltic Amber Selection

Learn to identify genuine Baltic amber, understand quality grades, and discover how to source materials that work best for your designs. We cover color variations, clarity, and durability factors.

Bead Stringing Techniques

Master traditional and modern stringing methods. You'll work with different thread types, learn knot techniques that hold, and understand spacing principles that create visual balance.

Silver Setting Methods

Discover how to properly set amber in silver bezels, wire wrapping, and metal frameworks. These techniques ensure your pieces last generations while maintaining the amber's natural beauty.

Finishing & Polishing

The final details matter. We teach polishing techniques, protective treatments, and how to bring out amber's inner glow while caring for silver components properly.

Our Process

How We Structure Learning

Fundamentals First

We don't rush. You'll start with material science, understanding amber's properties and how it responds to different techniques before touching tools.

Hands-On Practice

Every concept gets practiced immediately. You'll work on progressively complex pieces, building confidence with each completed project throughout the workshop.

Personal Guidance

Our instructors watch your progress closely. When something isn't working, we adjust the approach. When you're ready for something harder, we move forward together.

Why We Do This

Sorboovia UAB isn't motivated by trends or quick profits. These principles guide everything we do in our Palanga workshops.

Respect for Materials

Baltic amber is ancient and precious. We teach you to treat it with reverence. Every technique we share exists to honor the material and create pieces that endure.

Accessibility Over Gatekeeping

Jewelry making shouldn't be exclusive. We believe traditional crafts thrive when more people learn them. Our workshops are designed for complete beginners to experienced makers.

Quality Over Speed

There's no rush here. We'd rather see you create one perfect piece than ten mediocre ones. Patience and precision are what we model and encourage throughout your learning.

Community Building

Our workshops create connections. You'll meet other people who appreciate craftsmanship, who understand why amber matters, and who enjoy working with their hands. That community becomes part of your learning experience.
