A generously sized rough piece of Baltic amber at 60x36x21mm with its full natural outer surface intact. The cortex shows the characteristic warm honey-amber orange of Baltic resin, with naturally darker reddish-brown weathering patches that give the piece an earthy, organic appeal. The amber shows through translucently where the crust is thinner at the edges, hinting at the glowing golden interior beneath - a lovely glimpse into what lies inside.
Baltic amber is fossilized resin from ancient conifer forests that lined the Baltic Sea coast, estimated to be 44-50 million years old. Sourced from Poland, this piece is completely untreated and retains its full natural form. Suitable for wire wrapping, resin casting, carving, or simply as a display specimen and collector piece.
Natural rough Baltic amber, untreated - sold as a single piece.

About amber
Amber is fossilized tree resin, not a mineral, so it is very light and feels warm to the touch. At 2 to 2.5 on the Mohs scale it scratches very easily.
Cleaning
Rinse it briefly in lukewarm water, loosen dirt with a soft brush and let it air-dry. Skip ultrasonic and steam cleaners: amber is soft and melts or cracks with heat. Keep alcohol, perfume, hairspray and solvents away from it: they dissolve its surface.
Wear and storage
Store it on its own in a soft pouch or a padded box, away from harder stones. It is soft enough to be scratched by a fingernail, so handle it gently.
