希少な竹の葉と昆虫のビルマ産琥珀 - 琥珀 (No reserve price)

Burmese Amber (Burmite) with Inclusions – Bamboo Leaves & Insect – Large Specimen 5 x 3 cm A remarkable collector’s piece: genuine Burmese amber (Burmite), dating back to the Cretaceous period (~99 million years), originating from Myanmar. This specimen stands out due to its impressive size (approx. 5 x 3 cm – considered large for this material) and its striking natural inclusions. Inside, you can clearly observe plant fragments resembling bamboo leaves, along with a well-preserved insect (likely a small beetle), trapped in resin millions of years ago. The warm golden-yellow tones combined with the darker inclusions create a beautiful natural contrast and strong visual appeal. Details: Type: Natural Burmese amber (Burmite) Origin: Myanmar (Burma) Age: ~99 million years (Cretaceous) Size: approx. 5 x 3 cm Inclusions: plant material (bamboo-like leaves) + insect (beetle) Color: translucent golden-yellow with natural contrasts Condition: good, solid piece, ideal for collection or display Notes: A rare specimen due to its size and the combination of visible organic inclusions. Perfect for collectors of fossils, natural history items, or unique display pieces. Sold exactly as shown in the photos.
