Amber

Science & Origin

Amber, first classified in the 14th century, is an organic gemstone formed from fossilized tree resin composed primarily of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. It solidifies over millions of years through polymerization under heat and pressure. It crystallizes in an amorphous system, meaning it lacks a fixed internal crystal structure, but maintains molecular cohesion through natural resins and succinic acid. Its golden hues range from honey-yellow to deep cognac, often containing ancient inclusions of plants or insects that became trapped during its formation. Its light weight and electrostatic qualities distinguish it from other minerals. Amber’s soft glow and warmth when touched arise from its organic composition. It symbolizes the preservation of time and life force energy in material form. Amber embodies transformation through patience and natural alchemy, representing sunlight captured and made eternal. It is revered as a vessel of ancient life, vitality, and protection.
