Transport yourself back in time as you explore the world of Amber inclusions. These unfortunate animals, insects, plants, and more became trapped in tree resin—distinct from tree sap—millions of years ago. Over time, the resin underwent a natural process of polymerization, gradually transforming into a hardened material known as Copal. This remarkable substance perfectly preserves the inclusion, allowing us to marvel at these ancient specimens as if they were captured just yesterday.

The gradual burial and metamorphosis of Copal into Amber have unfolded over several million years, resulting in the precious gemstone we cherish today. This extraordinary process has granted us the privilege of gazing upon these frozen moments from the distant past.

To truly appreciate the breathtaking detail of your Amber inclusion, we highly recommend using a magnifying aid. Through this lens, a miniature world unfolds before your eyes, revealing an array of specimens such as flies, gnats, midges, beetles, wasps, ants, spiders, cockroaches, seeds, plants, and much more. Each inclusion tells a fascinating story, capturing the essence of life in a bygone era.
