Description from the seller

Burmese Amber (Burmite) with Rare Flower Inclusion – Cretaceous (~99 Million Years Old)
A remarkable piece of natural Burmese amber (Burmite) containing a rare fossil flower inclusion, exceptionally preserved within the resin. Plant inclusions of this quality are significantly less common than insect inclusions and provide valuable insight into the ancient flora that thrived during the age of dinosaurs.
The flower is preserved together with delicate botanical structures, making this specimen particularly attractive to collectors of fossil amber, paleobotanical material, and natural history rarities. The transparency of the amber allows excellent observation of the inclusion and associated organic remains.

Origin: Myanmar (Burma)
Age: approximately 99 million years (Mid-Cretaceous)
Inclusion: rare fossil flower with botanical remains

This specimen represents a unique snapshot of a prehistoric forest ecosystem preserved in fossil resin nearly 100 million years ago. Rare floral inclusions are highly sought after due to their scientific interest and aesthetic appeal, making this an excellent addition to any amber, fossil, or natural history collection.
