Description
Amber is fossilized, hardened tree resin, often containing animal and plant material and air bubbles as inclusions. It has been appreciated for its color and natural beauty since Neolithic times. Much valued from antiquity to the present as a gemstone, amber is used in jewelry and made into a variety of decorative objects. It has also been used as a healing agent in folk medicine.
This image is one of the 12 pieces of a series by Moira Risen, titled 'The wooden jewelry box', inspired by the beautiful colors, structures and details of gemstones, crystals and trees.
