A beautiful golden-honey Amber cabochon from Burma, containing several prehistoric insects preserved in remarkable detail. Trapped in sticky tree resin nearly 100 million years ago, these tiny creatures offer a fascinating glimpse into life during the Cretaceous Period, when dinosaurs still roamed the Earth.
Burmese Amber, particularly from the famous Hukawng Valley in northern Myanmar, is among the world's most important sources of fossil insects. Scientists have identified an extraordinary diversity of ancient life in this material, including species long since extinct. A wonderful little piece of natural history, preserving a moment in time from nearly 100 million years ago.
