Chopin Open Work Amber Pendant No. 10 displays a luscious, bold amber stone in a classic cognac amber color with an organic compact shape. This lump of amber from the sea has been highly polished by hand to showcase a staggering array of mysterious inclusions contained within. There is a lot going on inside No. 10! Fine medium cognac color simply bursting with glinting, gleaming incusions. This is a substantial piece, very fiery.
This amber stone is heavily "included", meaning it is studded with fossil materials, resulting in fascinating patterns created by Mother Nature. Each amber stone bears her fingerprint. Preserved within the honey colored amber, the inclusions gleam & sparkle.
The flora contained inside the amber became trapped in the amber while the resin was still fresh, millions of years ago, in the ancient forest that once covered Northern Europe. These inclusions frequently contain hairs or tiny spores from oak tree buds, but may contain an astonishing array of other materials.
The reverse is left open, to allow the wearer to enjoy the warmth of the amber against the skin. The back side of this amber pendant contains a dimple where some of the amber bark, or amber skin (the rough amber cortex) is left intact.
A gracious old world floral motif houses the natural amber drop, lightly antiqued sterling silver leaves & vines with exquisite detail. This is a style favored & perfected by the amber masters of the 17th Century who practiced their craft in the seaside city of Gdansk, Poland, the world capital of amber. Which is exactly where Chopin Open Work Pendant No. 10 comes to you from.
