Item Description
A beautiful specimen of Amber from the Dominican Republic featuring many very well-preserved flying insects (possibly mosquitos or gnats) along with what appear to be beetles and / or termites 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. It's not common to find a piece with THIS many insects inside. It's a rich specimen, best viewed under the microscope, and I spent several minutes looking at it.
