Doha: Highly coveted and valued from antiquity to the present, Amber has been prized as a gemstone in jewellery making and as a healing agent in folk medicine.

The fascinating history of Amber and its special significance to collectors in the region inspired AlBahie to bring a collection of this unique stone to auction for the second time this year. 

The auction will feature hand-carved misbahas, as well as decorative sculptures and other collectibles. 

The fourth edition of the Amber Auction will surely become a crowd favourite and will bring together both local and international collectors.
