Dominican fossil amber is known for the clarity of its inclusions including such things as insects, arachnids, and botanicals. This unique, polished piececontains a gall midge that was in the process of laying eggs into the resin that eventually became amber! Three distinct eggs can be seen; insects laying eggs in amber is a rare find. The insect can be easily seen at arm's length.The piece itself weighs 1.3 grams and has approximate dimensions of 1.5 cm length, 1 cm width, and 1 cm height. I hand-sand and fully polish the majority of amber pieces I offer, this piece from rough originating from La Cumbre Mine, the Dominican Republic. I only sell genuine, all-natural, non-heat treated, reconstituted, or color enhanced amber. Please note that the majority ofDominican amber is not fossiliferous as this piece is. This piece could be used as a specimen or in a piece of jewelry. I also offer rare Dominican blue amber specimens, and cherry red Chiapas amber for sale. Thank you for your consideration. This amber will ship worldwide at $4.00 U.S. I will combine items to save on shipping for up to a 10 day period. NO INTERNATIONAL MONEY ORDERS PLEASE. ![]() | |
