Ten amber cabochons fall into a regular rhythm along the silver chain of this bracelet, each one a different shade of warm resin, from honey to a deep amber red. Held up to the light, the stone reveals fine cracks and tiny bubbles that look like sunrays frozen inside it. This is an organic material, fossilised tree resin, not a cold mineral, which is why the bracelet feels warm and alive despite the modern, geometric shape of its links. In old Baltic craft, amber was linked to the sun's warmth and to good fortune, and today it still works just as well as a gift to mark a success.

Each of the ten amber stones was chosen by hand, checked for colour and clarity against the light, since only stones like these give that deep, warm, flawless shine. Amber of this quality is getting harder to find, and silver has risen in price in recent years, so buying now makes sense price-wise. The links are made of refined, pure sterling silver 925, free of nickel and other harmful additives, which keeps contact with the wrist safe for the skin. Rhodium plating protects the surface from tarnishing and scratches, keeping the metal's shine clean through months of wear. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark establishing its origin, registered with the French assay office, which attests to its European quality of workmanship.

The bracelet measures 17 cm, and an adjustable 4 cm extension lets it fit wrists of different sizes. It looks best peeking out from under the sleeve of a soft, chunky knit sweater, styled monochromatically, beige on beige, grey on grey. The cuff's edge then reveals just a glimpse of the amber row, and the stone's warm colour brings life to an understated everyday look of a sweater and simple trousers.
