Description

Natural Dominican Amber with Insect Inclusion Polished Stone – 30mm Overview A genuine piece of Dominican amber containing a clearly visible ancient insect inclusion. The amber is polished to enhance transparency and reveal the fossil specimen inside. Dominican amber is famous for its clarity and well-preserved inclusions, making pieces like this highly collectible. Stone Details Stone Natural Amber Origin Dominican Republic Size 30 x 11 x 12 mm Weight 4.3 g | 21.5 carats Polish Polished for clarity and display Certificate Included SKU C-39-2255 Insect Inclusion – Visual Analysis The inclusion shows a slender, dark, beetle-like insect preserved inside the amber. Based on visible features, it most closely resembles a small beetle (Coleoptera), possibly a rove beetle–type (identification is best-effort from the photo and may vary). Body Shape Elongated and narrow, slightly tapered toward one end Color Dark brown to black with a slightly warmer brown tone near the rear Legs Multiple legs visible, folded beneath the body; fairly robust compared to flies/mosquitoes Preservation Clear outline with 3D depth; surrounding micro-bubbles and resin flow lines typical of natural entrapment Why “Beetle-like” Compact elongated body and leg structure; no obvious long-wing veining typical of mosquitoes/gnats Collector Notes • Dominican amber is prized for its transparency and inclusions. • The small bubbles and “flow” patterns around the insect are natural features created when the resin hardened. • This piece is ideal for collectors, display, study, or jewelry/art projects (please note: drilling/setting should be done by a professional). Authentic • Natural • Dominican Origin • Certificate Included A unique piece of prehistoric resin with a visible insect fossil inclusion.
