Item Description

A beautiful specimen of Amber from the Dominican Republic featuring a few very well-preserved flying insects (possibly mosquitoes or gnats) along with a notably distinct ant, and a SPIDER!, along with a couple unidentified insects (beetles?) completely frozen inside. This material is always popular on the market, and even though its more of a fossil than a mineral, it's still a cool display piece of this well known material.
