Amber

With origins traced back to prehistoric pine forests, amber is not just a gemstone but a window into our planet's distant past. It is, in fact, fossilized tree resin that dates back approximately 50 million years. These ancient pine trees likely secreted the sap, which eventually formed amber, as a defense against fungal and insect invasions. Intriguingly, amber occasionally encapsulates organic matter such as insects, leaves, and even mammalian hair. Amber, symbolizing the sun's energy, is believed to absorb negativity and release bright, soothing energy, effectively acting as a mental sunny day.
