AMBER: solid element of liquid component

Amber


Amber is fossilized tree resin, which has been appreciated for its color and natural organic beauty since Neolithictimes. Amber is used as an ingredient in perfumes, as a healing agent in folk medicine, and as jewelry. There are five classes of amber, defined on the basis of their chemical constituents. Because it originates as a soft, sticky tree resin, amber sometimes contains animal and plant material as inclusions.
