Amber the ancient resin turned jewel for earth stewards
Amber is fossilized plant resin forming a hard, warm golden jewelry. Insects and debris often become trapped in the resin, creating a transparent record of ancient ecosystems. The Dominican Republic and Baltic deposits link to Hymenaea protera and Araucariaceae resins, with global parallels in Mexico, Central America, and New Zealand.
