Amber is a fossilized resin from coniferous trees that has hardened and mineralized over millions of years. It is known for its unique properties of preserving organic materials, including insects and plants, which can often be visible as inclusions within it. Amber's colours can range from pale yellow to a reddish brown or even green, depending on environmental conditions and the chemical composition of the original resin.
From a professional point of view, amber is evaluated according to clarity, colour, and the presence of inclusions that can add aesthetic and scientific value. Untreated amber, especially that with interesting inclusions, is particularly valuable in collectors' and researchers' circles.
In the jewellery industry, amber is processed into various forms, such as cabochons, which highlight the natural beauty and depth of colour. Amber is prized not only for its beauty but also for its supposed therapeutic properties, such as relieving pain or fighting inflammation. This stone is a popular choice in jewellery because of its natural lightness and warmth, giving a touch of sophistication and naturalness to any accessory.
