Heart and Amber Bangle

Description

This Heart and Amber bangle consists of 3 hearts with Amber cabochons. The larger heart in the center has a 5mm Amber cabachon while the two smaller hearts on either side have a 4mm cabochon of Amber.

Amber is not strictly a gemstone or mineral, but a fossilized sap from prehistoric trees that has aged over millions of years. It is commonly a yellow golden colour, but Amber also can be found in shades of milky white, red-orange, green, black and even (very rarely) violet. Amber stone artifacts and jewelry have been found in many places, and this may be because it was possibly an item of trade that ended up in the hands of those who had the wealth.
Many of the artifacts made of amber had insects within them. These were probably thought to have magical virtues, as they were carved into hunting talismans, worn to ensure safe and abundant hunting.Approx 45 million years ago, pine trees in the Baltic and Scandinavian countries, discharged resins.

Due to the many colours that this gemstone comes in mant Chakra’s can be helped. However the most common colours come in yellows and oranges which are the colours associated with the Solar Plexus and Sacral chakras.
