Indonesian amber, a natural polished freeform specimen from the Cenozoic, originating in Indonesia, weighing 869 g and measuring 13.7 × 12.3 cm.
Description from the seller
Indonesian amber belongs to Asia's coveted fossil resins and is valued for its often distinctive 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 appeal for collectors.
These impressive free-form pieces of Indonesian amber fascinate with their exceptional transparency and spectacular color gradations. Honey-, cognac- and coffee-brown shades alternate with deep amber areas, which, when backlit, transition into intense red and orange hues and give the piece an almost glowing appearance.
Depending on the incidence of light, new color play and reflections arise each time, making the free-form piece look different from every angle.
A special feature of this piece appears under UV light: some parts then appear 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 polish strikingly emphasizes the natural beauty of the amber, while the free-form design preserves the organic structures of the original tree resin. This creates a unique display piece, admired both for its transparency and its vibrant coloration.
