Amber, often called “Gold from the Sea,” is not a mineral but fossilized tree resin, dating back millions of years. Its name may come from the Arabic words ambrum (essence) or anbar (resin). Ancient pine forests buried by geological changes released resin that interacted with the earth to become this magical fossil. 🌲 Amber often retains the warm scent of pine and is prized not only as a gemstone but also historically as a luxurious aromatic material — even more precious than gold! 💰
