Additional Information

Amber has long been prized for its unique beauty, with ancient civilizations believing in its mystical and healing properties. The warm, honey-like glow of amber continues to captivate jewelers and collectors alike, as seen in this 1990s sterling silver pendant. Amber’s natural inclusions, often referred to as “inclusions,” are one of its defining features. These inclusions can range from ancient plant material to tiny bubbles of air, adding depth and intrigue to the stone. Paired with a simple sterling silver bezel, the amber’s rich red-orange hue stands out in this pendant, offering a glimpse into the natural world preserved within the stone. Silver’s cool tones provide an ideal contrast to amber's warmth, allowing the gemstone to shine. This pendant is a perfect example of how simple yet elegant design can highlight the inherent beauty of the materials.
