Amber is petrified tree resin, and the ancients knew that when you rub an amber rod with a piece of cloth, the amber attracts small pieces of leaves or dust. This amber effect, namely when rubbed with a cloth, the ability to attract some other objects is due to static electricity.

Answer:
when amber is rubbed with fur, electrons are transferred from the fur to the amber, giving the amber an excess of electrons and hence, a negative charge, and the fur a deficit of electrons and hence, a positive charge....I hope it will help!
