Amber specimen from the Cretaceous period in natural condition.
Description from the seller
This piece of amber actually encloses both aquatic and terrestrial organisms at the same time. It is extremely rare, including a centipede and a Screw
Burmese amber, also known as Burmite, is a type of fossilized tree resin primarily found in the Hukawng Valley of Myanmar. It is renowned for its exceptional ability to preserve ancient life forms, including insects, plants, and other organisms often trapped within it. This amber is estimated to be around 99 million years old, dating back to the Cretaceous period (before the appearance of Tyrannosaurus!). It has a rich golden-yellow color with reddish-brown tones and high transparency, making it highly valued by collectors and scientists, providing us with a rare window into prehistoric ecosystems.
We use PE boxes to store each piece of amber, ensuring its safety and ease of collection.
The images of these insects were taken under a magnifying glass; please refer to the size information in the pictures below. ...
