Amber with insect in magnifying box for sale

Nice piece of amber for a closer look

Baltic amber in a magnifying box with a magnification of about 5x.

Baltic amber is fossilized resin from Scandinavian conifers about 44 million years old. At that time, the climate was relatively mild and the coniferous forest stretched far into the Scandinavian area with trees up to 40 meters high. Resin-trapped insects are exceptionally well preserved and have already taught science a lot about the evolution between these fossil specimens and our current insects.

The amber comes in a magnifying box of 4 x 4 x 4 cm
