One of today’s best finds at the Met: a box made mostly from thin translucent panels of amber. (!!!) Just incredible. (Didn’t get any more details about where/when it was made, unfortunately, but somewhere in Northern Europe, at least a hundred years ago)

Small ornate chest in a museum, with lid propped open, made of panels of amber with light coming through

@elliotlovegrove as of late, I am increasingly interested in materials which share some of the aesthetic qualities of plastic (which I love) but . . . which are not plastic
