China, circa 1880
Amber, the fossilised resin of ancient trees, has held deep cultural and spiritual significance in China for centuries. Prized for its warm golden hues, amber symbolises the "soul" or "life force" in traditional Chinese belief systems. Its natural translucency represents purity and truth, while its reputed healing properties earned it a place in traditional Chinese medicine.
