AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Cretaceous amber (Cenomanian) dating to 99 million years ago from the Hukawng Valley, Tanai, Myanmar.

This amber can be kept as is or mounted on a pendant or a ring.

This amber is exceptional because it contains rare inclusions.
It offers a good panorama of prehistoric insects.

It is a true window opening to the Cretaceous period.
Exploring the amber landscape with a binocular loupe is a fascinating journey to the time of the dinosaurs, discovering their environment—twigs, spores, insect remains.

Ideal gifts for children passionate about dinosaurs and paleontology.
Optional presentation frame

Myanmar amber (Burmite) is fossil resin from Araucaria formed in the Cretaceous when dinosaurs roamed (unlike Baltic amber which dates from the Eocene after the extinction of the dinosaurs or copal resins which are recent).
The insect trapped in this piece of amber therefore lived alongside the dinosaurs (which inspired Jurassic Park).
This is a genuine piece of fossil amber, as evidenced by its blue fluorescence under UV and its afterglow (yellow phosphorescence, just after illumination) typical of Burmese ambers.
