Burmese Amber (Burmite) with Rare Prehistoric Snail – Museum Quality, 2.2 x 1.9 cm
A highly desirable piece of genuine Burmese amber (Burmite) from Myanmar, dating back approximately 99 million years to the Cretaceous period. This exceptional specimen features a rare prehistoric snail (gastropod) preserved with outstanding clarity.
The spiral shell is clearly defined and exhibits strong three-dimensional preservation, making this inclusion both visually striking and scientifically significant. The specimen is centrally positioned, allowing excellent visibility from multiple angles.
The amber displays a rich golden color with very good transparency, further enhancing the clarity of the snail and the surrounding natural micro-inclusions (air bubbles and organic particles), which confirm its authenticity.
