AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A wonderful specimen of Baltic Amber, with splendid light shades, leaning towards white, which embellish the piece: the lower part is predominantly a very light color, while the upper part tends more to the classic transparent orange color of amber.
To highlight the beauty of the piece and make it even more unique, both the parts with natural coal traces and the cut and polishing, in which it was desired to preserve the authenticity of the find as much as possible, contribute; therefore, one can appreciate the natural shapes, shaped by the earth and maintained in all their beauty.

Size: 77 × 47 × 33 mm
Weight: 73g
Epoch: Eocene
Origin: Baltic
