Exceptional large specimen of amber

+6 kg Rare Blue Indonesian Amber – Naturally Blue details Without UV!

This impressive piece of Sumatra amber is fully polished, giving it a smooth, mirror-like surface that highlights its natural details. Displayed on a handcrafted, heavy, and luxurious wooden stand, it is a true piece of art and a stunning eye-catcher in any space.

Magical in Sunlight
Place this amber in bright white light or even better, in direct sunlight and you'll witness a fascinating blue details– all without any UV light! This makes it one of the rarest pieces of Sumatra amber. While many large amber specimens on the market appear dark, truly blue pieces of this size are extremely rare.

Photo Note The images with a white background were taken without UV light and show the amber's natural color under standard lighting conditions.

Millions of Years Old & Full of History
This amber is fossilized tree resin that formed millions of years ago in the ancient rainforests of Indonesia. Each piece is one-of-a-kind and tells its own story.

Safe Packaging & Insured Shipping
The amber will be carefully packaged and shipped with insurance to ensure it arrives safely at your doorstep.

Unique Objects

Occasionally, two different bidders may show up in the bidding history with the same bid amount. This occurs when one user's bid is exactly the same as an automatic (maximum) bid placed by another user earlier. Since the auto-bid was placed first, this takes preference. The bidding history will show both bids, with the auto-bid ranked as the higher of the two.


Double bid

It may appear that the same bid has been placed by two different bidders. This can occur if someone places a bid in another currency which is then rounded to the same amount as the previous bid in %{local_currency}.

This can occur for the following reasons:
<p>1. If an opening bid does not meet a lot’s reserve price (hidden minimum), buyers may try outbidding their earlier bid in order to find that lot’s RP.</p>
<p>2. If an auto-bid (user-set maximum bid) is outbid, the bidding log will show the first and final steps of that user's auto-bid in a row. The new highest bid will be shown at the top.</p>

Why is this bidder outbidding him- or herself?
