Average Size: ~10mm
Specimen: Burmese Amber with Insect Inclusion
Age: Cretaceous (~99 million years ago)
Provenance: Hukawng Valley, Kachin State, Myanmar (Burma)
Burmese amber — or Burmite — is among the most scientifically significant and sought-after ambers in the world. Originating from the Hukawng Valley of northern Myanmar, it dates to the mid-Cretaceous period, approximately 99 million years ago, making it one of the oldest fossiliferous ambers commercially available. Its extraordinary age places inclusions within the era of the dinosaurs, offering a rare and direct window into Cretaceous forest ecosystems.
About Amber Inclusions
Amber inclusions are organisms entombed in ancient tree resin — not tree sap — millions of years ago. As the resin enveloped the specimen, it began a natural process of polymerization, hardening first into Copal and, over millions of years of burial and geological pressure, eventually transforming into true amber. The result is a window into a lost world: organisms preserved in extraordinary detail, suspended in time as if captured only yesterday.
We recommend using a magnifying aid to fully appreciate the frozen detail of your inclusion.
Specimen Details
The image shows a representative example of the specimen you will receive. As natural objects, each piece is unique — colour, shape, clarity, and inclusion type will vary. It will not be the exact specimen photographed.
