Natural Burmese amber specimen from Myanmar dating to the mid-Cretaceous period and encasing over 10 larvae, with original authenticity.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is a piece of natural insect amber from Myanmar, perfectly encasing over 10 larvae. It's a rare insect amber and a hard-to-find collectible specimen.
Burmese amber is one of the oldest ambers in the world, formed during the mid-Cretaceous period around 99 million years ago, and is found in the Hukawng Valley of Kachin State in northern Myanmar.
The most important value of Burmese amber lies in its unparalleled significance for paleobiological research. It perfectly preserves snapshots of prehistoric tropical forests, making it a true "time capsule."
The images of these insects were taken under a magnifying glass; please refer to the size information in the images below.
We use PE boxes to store each piece of amber, ensuring its safety and ease of collection.

Seller's Story

Welcome to Amber & Jade Curator! I am an enthusiast and collector of natural amber and jade, focused on finding ancient amber from Myanmar and natural jade (A-grade jade). I deeply understand the charm of these two gems — amber is the “sun stone” solidified over millions of years, and jade represents the softness and resilience of the king of East Asian gemstones. All amber in the store is natural Myanmar or Baltic amber (some imported from Poland/Lithuania), and the jade is natural A-grade jade with traceable origins from Myanmar. Each listed piece is carefully selected to ensure it is completely natural and untreated (with no signs of treatment). An authoritative certificate (such as NGTC certificate) is the best proof of its authenticity. We commit to truthfully describing every detail, including the dimensions, weight, color, and natural texture that matter to you. We use safe, reliable packaging and shipping to give you peace of mind when purchasing.
