    Description

    This is a large, 4 gram, fully polished, cabochon shaped fossil piece of Burmite (Burmese) amber that contains a rare group of leaves from the Cretaceous Period.
    The leaves would have been from plants that were on the Earth when dinosaurs still walked! It would have aided in producing oxygen for them to breathe.
    The piece itself weighs 4.0 grams with dimensions of 2.9 cm length by 2.3 cm width and 0.7 cm height. NOTE: 2.54 cm is 1 inch.
    Please see my feedback. I have been selling amber fossils for over 10 years on eBay and do not sell fake amber only genuine material from now extinct plant sources not glass or plastic embedded with present day inclusions.
    Burmite (Burmese) amber is difficult to acquire and has been dated to be Cretaceous in age (around 100 million years old) and would have been sticky resin during the time of the dinosaurs
    and is being mined in the Hukawng Valley in Myanmar (Burma).
    In December of 2016, a portion of the tail of a small dinosaur was reported in a piece of burmite amber, and in
    June of 2017, a nearly complete extinct bird was reported in this material!
    NOTE: I have been selling Burmite (Burmese) amber for years on eBay. I am a reputable Burmite amber seller.

    Please see my other resin fossils including Dominican amber with inclusions, large Colombian copal with inclusions, and very rare Indonesian ambers (some of lovely blue and green color).

    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 bidding/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 at .00 U.S.
    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 feedback should help demonstrate this.
