A 48 x 19 mm pendant, crafted from high-purity 950 silver, crowned by a spectacular 38 x 19 mm polished amber stone. This amber is a plant resin, displaying an incredible golden hue with natural ochre markings. The stone is held in place by a chain loop inserted within the amber, allowing its remarkable translucency to shine through.

It is the fossilized resin of ancient trees that lived some 25 to 50 million years ago, but some pieces that have been found can be as old as 130 million years or more.
