Can anyone explain Drzewko Szczescia (Polish amber tree of good luck)?

[Anonymous]

What does it symbolize? What is its history?

basically a luck charm, nothing more than that ^^ hope that helped

Is it an old tradition?

I don't think so, I happen to see that in some homes but there was no particular talk about them. When I asked what these are I was told that they bring good luck with money. Nothing more than that. I think that could've come to Poland from China but I can't tell for sure.
