That is the case only in a few places in the world. Maybe just in the Baltic Sea. Amber from the Baltic to Southern Europe is one of the earliest long-distance trade routes known. Amber can be mined in a few other places, like the Dominican Republic. That made amber a precious stone everywhere else. Like in China, where apparently it was considered a "divine substance".
No one knows exactly what alchemical recipe that note in the "Red rooster" entry was referring to. Presumably it was some process that turned egg yolks into a hard yellow-orange transparent substance that looked like real amber. It does not seem impossible...
All the best, --stolfi
