### Material & Inclusions Authentic Baltic amber with a rich honey-to-cognac tone, carefully polished to reveal a remarkably preserved WASP (HYMENOPTERA, likely parasitic type such as Ichneumonidae or Braconidae). The insect is displayed in a dynamic lateral position, showing a clearly defined head with long, filamentous antennae, a robust thorax, and a distinctly narrow, elongated waist. The abdomen is well preserved and slightly tapered, consistent with parasitic wasp morphology. Fine legs are visible along the body, with delicate segmentation and subtle hair-like structures. Faint impressions of membranous wings can be observed near the thorax, partially obscured by resin flow. Surrounding the wasp is a dramatic field of dark organic material — likely plant debris — along with fine fibrous inclusions and minute particulate matter. Small air bubbles and natural flow lines enhance the depth and confirm the amber’s untouched origin. The strong contrast between the clear lower section and the darker upper zone creates an exceptional visual presentation. ### Craftsmanship & Presentation Shaped into a smooth, asymmetrical freeform drop with a high-gloss polish that maximizes transparency and depth. The pendant is fitted with a 925 sterling silver bail, providing both durability and a clean, elegant finish. The natural composition and striking internal contrast make this piece especially appealing to collectors and those drawn to rare fossil inclusions. ### UV Testing & Fluorescence Exhibits a characteristic blue-green fluorescence under ultraviolet light, confirming genuine Baltic amber. No treatments, enhancements, or synthetic alterations — entirely natural material. ### Pendant Dimensions Approximately 16.5 x 9.5 x 6.5 mm (including bail) ### Geological Origin Age: approximately 35–50 million years Epoch: Eocene Region: Baltic Sea area — renowned for producing amber with exceptional fossil preservation ### Condition & Authenticity This is a one-of-a-kind specimen featuring a genuine wasp inclusion. The amber is in excellent condition, free from cracks, fillers, or artificial modifications. A scientifically and visually valuable piece, preserving a moment of prehistoric life with striking clarity. ### Shipping & Packaging • Ships securely worldwide with tracking and protective, eco-friendly packaging • Estimated delivery: 5–7 business days internationally
