🔮 Copal Amber: Solar Resin

💛 Solar Plexus Chakra

Copal Sequence is a smaller yet captivating specimen that embodies the quiet perfection of preservation. Its clarity is remarkable and a golden window into ancient life, where tiny insect forms remain intact and suspended in translucent stillness. Each inclusion is beautifully defined, revealing fine details that speak to the precision of nature’s design.

When sunlight touches this piece, it shimmers with soft, radiant warmth, a golden glow that seems to come from within. This natural luminescence enhances the sense of life preserved inside, as though the resin still holds the vitality of the tropical forests where it first formed.

Created from the resin of ancient trees, Copal Amber represents a transitional stage between organic resin and fully fossilised amber. Over time, slow polymerisation transformed this once-fluid material into a natural time capsule, preserving its delicate inclusions with extraordinary fidelity.

The beauty of Copal Sequence lies in its simplicity of light, life, and structure captured in perfect harmony. It is both a scientific marvel and a meditation on time itself, a small yet profound reminder that even the briefest moments can endure forever.

🌀 Fossils

Fossils are life forms of either plants or animals that have been captured within an impression and preserved usually within the sedimentary rocks. Another type of fossil is resin fossilization where insects and plants are embedded within amber.

Most fossils are just casings or cavities of what was, and the soft parts of the animals and plants are rarely preserved due to certain salts and minerals breaking down the organic matter within.

Now another type of fossil can be completely replaced by an imprint or impression of the original shell, animal or plant within sedimentary rock or hard rock such as petrified wood.

Lastly a process called mineralization, is where an entire cavity can be completely replaced meaning if it was a shell, it would have completely dissolved. Through this process certain acids and solutions penetrate the cavity and form a new matrix within the cavity creating a 3D version of the shell itself.
