These are incredibly rare, beautiful pieces of polished Madagascan Copal Amber. Some have inclusions of ancient leaf matter, foliage and even insects. Copal Amber is often very cloudy and badly polished, but this has fantastic polish and very clear inclusions.
This makes it extremely hard to come across. Madagascar stopped the export of amber, so it is very hard to obtain. We sourced these specimens from a supplier who discovered these put away in their warehouse, and we managed to jump in and purchase them immediately.
Amber is technically not a crystal or mineral, but it is one of the few organic gemstones recognised by the gemological world. This copal Amber is the preserved resin from a prehistoric tree. The magical quality is that insects (and even sometimes larger creatures such as lizards!) are captured within the resin as it leaks and creeps down... This Copal was found in Madagascar - and dates to between 10,000 and 200,000 Years old. It is very hard to date Copal and other Ambers - and some experts believe it to be dated at up to 2 Million years old.
Two varieties of Amber are available:
Plain Amber: This amber lacks the multitude of inclusions found in the other option, and arrives in a 10-gram bag.
Amber with Inclusions: This amber has inclusions, some of which contain tiny insects, making it a rare find. Weighing around 5-8 grams, this typically contains one to two pieces roughly 3-5cm in length.
