Amber Elder Signs
Mech-han brings us these nifty etched amber Elder Sign amulets. He's also the first artist from China that we've had the pleasure of featuring here at Propnomicon.
I really enjoy seeing people make items out of natural materials. Amber is a fairly soft material to work and takes a polish easily making beautiful jewelry, which is why it was so treasured. Figurines and beads can be made of amber and there was significant trade in ancient times, just Google Amber Road of Europe.
