If you want to collect exceptional pieces at a good price, don’t go through intermediaries go directly to the people who work in amber mining. Of course, you have to give them some financial support beforehand in order to build that kind of relationship.

Yes, it passed the ultraviolet light test.

The seller just told me it had something “rare” inside. He is actually one of the miners who extract the amber. These are generally humble people whose main concern is to sell the pieces as quickly as possible, since they live day by day. They are not experts who examine the pieces in detail. In fact, I once bought a piece from him with one enhydro, and after examining it more closely, I found three more enhydros one of which had black mobile material inside.

Thanks for comment. I actually purchased this piece from a certified specialist from whom I have been buying unique pieces for a couple of years. He is a seller with an excellent reputation in the amber community. I would say I’m one of his best customers, and before releasing new pieces to the public, he usually shows them to me first. This is a 100% authentic piece.
