Amber and astronomy
in Frombork
The subject of a competition “Amber and Astronomy”, but what do amber and astronomy have a lot in common? – it will be other means in case “amber and jewellery”, or “steel and metallurgy” – was created based on “canon zen: question” without one answer and having to lead to unity with its spirit. A special acknowledgement received a small, inconspicuous ring consisting of exactly sculptured a tube from one pice of amber setting in a simple geometrical gold form. Thinking of this, we can wear this ring and see a starry sky owing to this small amber tube with all history in a nature and culture we can as reach connotations such we can expect for a distinguished artwork. An author of this artwork is Philipe Sajet, who was awarded a main prize. (p. 26)
