Description from the seller
Dominican red amber is a type of amber with a rare, light coloration. It is found primarily in the amber mines of the mountains near Santiago, Dominican Republic. Commonly called red-shelled amber, it acquires its color because it is the first amber mined, the one closest to the surface, which heats the earth the most. Although little known due to its rarity, it has existed since the discovery of Dominican amber. It reacts to ultraviolet light, as we know. It is estimated to be between 25 and 44 million years old. Clear as water, completely transparent, a unique piece for collectors, never before auctioned on Catawiki, and of high quality. I must also confess its scarcity.
Being one of the most coveted in the world, Dominican red amber is among the most exclusive and expensive, surpassing Mexican and Baltic amber.
