Aren't the amber pebbles coming from a Baltic Country? Latvia, if I remember correctly? So you could name it
"Baltic Fall"
or
"Baltic Birch in the Fall"

Since the amber came from tree sap millions of years ago and is now a tree again, I think something like: "Golden Rebirth" or "Baltic Reincarnation" or better yet, just: "Enlightenment" (since Buddhist philosophy provides that we proceed through many reincarnations until we reach enlightenment and break free from the cycle of rebirths - AND since the tree literally glows with light!) Yeah - that's my final answer - Enlightenment. Beautiful, beautiful work Eileen! Nancy |

How about 'Crazy metal/rock tree thing from Venus' LOL
I've enjoyed watching the progression. Now a real name. Because it reminds me of a lone tree on the African plains:
Lonesome Savannah
Savannah Fall
In the Beginning
Genesis

Early on I called it "Life's beginning" I do not think it fits now. I now see a "Tree of Destiny"

Any more suggestions? Soon as my mother-in-law leaves (Monday), I'll pick a few and add a poll.

Back east we used to call the tourists who flooded the Adirondacks of northern NY state (and New England) every fall to see the foliage change, the "Leaf Peepers" so let's add... "Leaf Peepers' Delight"  some other thoughts: "Baltic Honey" "Radiance" "Season's Change" |

Hmm - most of the ideas I have are being used in other names, so I'll combine them and apologize freely!  Golden Autumn or Glowing Autumn or Electric Autumn (based on amber's Greek name ( elektron) which was the basis of the modern day word "eletricity") |

Looks like it has gold nuggets on it, but with differing colorations. How about "Liquid Gold" or
"Growing Golden Nuggets".
That is a neat thread, thanks for sharing the steps with us.

How about
Golden whispers of time.
Seems to fit when I think of the wind whispering through the leaves and the added essance of once living things caught and preserved within the amber.
