Dominican Amber, a 62 g AAA quality specimen of Dominican amber from Santiago de los Caballeros, República Dominicana.
Description from the seller
Dominican Green amber is a type of amber that exhibits a rare, clear coloration. It is most common in amber mines in the mountains near Santiago, Dominican Republic. Although little known due to its rarity, it has existed since the discovery of Dominican amber. Under artificial light, amber appears like ordinary amber, but under sunlight it has an intense fluorescent blue coloration. When held to the sun it appears ordinary; under ultraviolet light it shows a brilliant milky blue. They are estimated to be 25-44 million years old. Completely water-clear, totally transparent, a unique piece for a collection, never auctioned on Catawiki, of high quality. As one of the most coveted in the world, Dominican blue amber is among the most exclusive and expensive, surpassing Mexican amber and Baltic amber. Regarded as an important gem, it is said to have healing and protective properties, helping balance emotions and enhance intellectual development, providing energy and vitality to the wearer. It is considered a unique protective amulet, hence its high value. If you are not sure about purchasing this auction, let someone else who is really interested in it bid. The photos have been taken under white light and natural light, with only one under UV light to show its reaction and verify its authenticity. The measurements are approximately 7 x 4 x 3 cm. Insured shipping with tracking number.
