Product Description
This is a single, unprocessed amber specimen sourced directly from Myanmar (Burma) — one of the world's most significant amber-producing regions. The piece weighs 74 grams and measures 75 × 50 × 45 mm, making it a substantial display or lapidary-grade specimen.
The exterior retains its natural dark cortex — the original bark-like outer layer formed during fossilisation — while the interior glows in layered tones of orange, golden brown, yellow, and black-brown under direct light. Clarity is translucent, with visible internal flow patterns and resin stratification typical of Burmese amber.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Burmese amber different from Baltic amber?
Yes. Burmese amber (Burmite) is significantly older — approximately 99 million years — compared to Baltic amber at around 44 million years. It is also harder and more likely to contain well-preserved prehistoric inclusions.
Can raw amber be cut and polished for jewellery?
Yes, this specimen is lapidary-grade rough. It can be cabbed, carved, or shaped by a lapidary into pendants, rings, or display pieces, though the final yield depends on internal clarity and cortex thickness.
Does amber glow under UV light?
Amber typically fluoresces blue-green to yellow under UV light. This specimen shows moderate fluorescence, which is a useful authenticity indicator — synthetic resins often fluoresce differently or not at all.
