AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Polished cabochon mounted on a 925 silver bail. The stone has a remarkable visual effect: from golden brown, it becomes blue under UV light. A feature unique to Sumatra ambers, among the most sought-after in the world.

Amber is a fossil resin, whose Indonesian deposits yield pieces of exceptional translucency and depth of color. Sumatra amber is particularly prized by collectors for this natural blue fluorescence, absent in Baltic ambers.

In lithotherapy, amber is associated with the solar chakra. It is reputed for its purifying and protective properties, promoting mental clarity and energetic balance.
Real photographs, what you see is what you receive.

-----------------------------------

1. Secure delivery with tracking number.

2. Shipped twice a week. For Europe and internationally, delivery times may vary from 8 to 15 days depending on the destination and customs checks at the borders.

3. All my stones are genuine, without color treatment, resin, or plastic. They have all been carefully selected, but as they are natural and handcrafted products, they may occasionally have minor imperfections.

4. The pendant bail has been checked; the given size includes the bail. The chain in the photos is not included in the sale, it is a presentation accessory.

5. The amber has changing reflections depending on light, indoor lighting or sunlight.
The photos were taken indoors with suitable lighting and outdoors in natural light when weather permits. I always try to faithfully reproduce the natural colors of the stone.

6. Unlike industrial jewelry, artisanal jewelry in stone and silver made by hand, even of high quality, may show slight marks or traces that attest to its authenticity.

7. Please examine the photographs carefully; they are an integral part of the description.

Thank you for your interest and happy bidding.
