Description from the seller

Indonesian amber belongs to the coveted fossil resins of Asia and is valued for its often striking colors, its transparency, and its interesting UV reaction. Free-form pieces of this quality with pronounced red tones, clearly visible internal structures, and intense fluorescence are relatively rare and possess a very own charm for collectors.

This impressive free-form piece of Indonesian amber fascinates with its remarkable transparency and spectacular color variations. Honey-, cognac-, and smoke-brown tones alternate with deep amber areas, which, when backlit, shift into intense red and orange hues and give the piece an almost glowing appearance.

Depending on the light incidence, new color plays and reflections arise each time, causing the free form to look different from every angle.

A special feature of this piece appears under UV light: some parts glow in intense blue to purple tones, creating a fascinating contrast with the warm amber colors. This fluorescence gives the piece an extra dimension and makes it particularly interesting for collectors as well.

The high-gloss finish highlights the natural beauty of the amber in an impressive way, while the free-form preserves the organic structures of the original tree resin. This results in a unique display piece, admired for both its transparency and its vivid color rendering.
