Please see my response. I have been selling amber fossils for over 15 years on anddo not sell fake amber only genuine material from now extinct plant sourcesnot glass or plastic embedded with present day inclusions.
This is a group of 7 pieces of rough (as mined) Burmite (Burmese) amber from the Cretaceous Period when dinosaurs like T-Rex and Triceratops still walked the Earth. While not guaranteed, it is possible some may have fossil inclusions like insects or plants. This is hard material and takes a high polish.
The group weighs 18 grams total. My asking price is just $6 per stone.
All pictures were taken in natural sunlight. Most of these stones are transparent.
These amber fossils come just as they were mined from Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) and have nice coloration.They could be used for carving or made into jewelry.
The pieces weigh a total of 18 grams and have approximate lengths ranging from between 1.5 cm and 3 cm. NOTE: 2.54 cm is 1 inch.
Burmese (Burmite) amber has been dated to be Cretaceous in age (around 100 million years old) and would have been sticky resin during the time of the dinosaursand is being mined in the Hukawng Valley in Myanmar (Burma).
Pleasesee my other resin fossils including Dominican amber with inclusions, largeColombian copal with inclusions, and rare Indonesian ambers (some oflovely blue and green color).
I do combine items for up to 7 days to save on shipping costs. Please contact me if you purchase more than one item so I can send you a combined invoice so you do not overpay on shipping.
International Buyers: Please note that I ship using First Class Mail International.
A SPECIAL NOTE CONCERNING INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please understand that import duties, taxes and charges are NOT included in the selling price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.
Please check your country's customs office to determine what these additional charges may be prior to offerding/buying.
I cannot guarantee delivery of your item in a set amount of time. Different country's customs offices take longer to process items than others do.
Lastly, I do not mark merchandise values below their true value or mark items as "gifts." U.S. and International government regulations prohibit such behavior. Honesty is the best option.
I only sell genuine, all-natural, non-heat treated, reconstituted, or color enhanced amber. This piece could be used as a specimen or in a piece of jewelry. Thank you for your consideration. This amber will ship worldwide. I will combine items to save on shipping for up to a 7 day period and usually ship within a 24 hour period.
Please note that the saltwater test to identify real from fake amber is not reliable. The saltwater test claims that real amber will float in saltwater while fake amber will sink.
However, many amber sources or even specimens will not float in saltwater as their botanical (plant) composition as well as fossil inclusions are such that they are more dense than saltwater and so sink. I do not sell fake amber. My response should help demonstrate this.
