Stunning BALTIC AMBER Pendant – Preserved Parasitic WASP – Natural Fossil Art - Amber (No Reserve Price)

### Material & Inclusions Authentic Baltic amber with a luminous golden hue and remarkable clarity, enclosing a beautifully preserved *PARASITIC WASP* inclusion. The insect is displayed in exquisite detail — its elongated body, narrow waist, and segmented legs are clearly visible. The antennae extend gracefully, while the delicate wings reveal fine venation under magnification. The slender abdomen and subtle texture of the thorax are perfectly fossilized, offering a fascinating look into Eocene-era insect life. Tiny bubbles, organic threads, and natural resin flow lines further emphasize the specimen’s authenticity. ### Craftsmanship & Presentation Expertly shaped into a polished, freeform pendant with smooth, glossy surfaces that enhance both the clarity and warmth of the amber. Its minimal metal bail complements the organic beauty of the piece, ensuring the prehistoric inclusion remains the central focus. The pendant’s natural glow and elegant form make it a refined fusion of ancient history and wearable art. ### UV Testing & Fluorescence Displays a vivid blue-green fluorescence under ultraviolet light — the hallmark of genuine Baltic amber. The piece is completely natural and untreated, free from dyes, resins, or synthetic materials. ### Pendant Dimensions Approximately 17.1 × 11 × 7.2 mm (including bail) ### Geological Origin Age: approximately 35–50 million years Epoch: Eocene Region: Baltic Sea area — world-renowned for amber containing exquisitely preserved fossil inclusions ### Condition & Authenticity One-of-a-kind specimen of natural Baltic amber featuring a well-defined *PARASITIC WASP* inclusion. Free from cracks, fillers, or modern alterations. A scientifically intriguing and visually captivating fossil — a tangible remnant of life from ancient European forests. ### Shipping & Packaging * Ships securely worldwide with tracking and eco-friendly protective packaging * Estimated delivery: 5–7 business days internationally
