Madagascar Copal Amber with leaves and insects in a handmade brass base.
Amber is a substance derived from resins (Fossil Resin) of trees and plants that, buried for millions of years, underwent into a fossilization process.
These resins produced by plants acted as protection against the action of bacteria and against the attack of insects that punctured the bark until reaching the interior of the trees.
Over millions of years, amber-forming organic substances ended up forming a hardened, weather-resistant resin.
