Up for purchase is a beautiful, large polished piece (16.6 grams) of super rare , untreated amber from the region of Pulau Punjung (Punjung Island), West Sumatra (Sumatera), Indonesia that has a gorgeous sky blue color along with dark green stripe and spots. The piece is transparent in regions. This material is associated with coal mining, dated to Miocene epoch in age (around 15 million years old), and supply is very limited of this quality. This resembles Dominican blue amber. Please note that this material is much more rare than Dominican blue amber. All pictures were taken under natural sunlight, no color enhancements. Indonesian amber is a beautiful, all-natural amber from fossil trees that exhibits a rich range of colors. Western Sumatran (Pulau Punjung), Indonesian amber is a recent find. This amber possesses a beautiful, deep blue color that sometimes can appear as violet (purple). I also offer blue and green amber from other areas of Indonesia. The color rivals that of the finest Dominican and Chiapas (Mexican) blue amber. The coloration can be so intense that it can be seen even in dim sunlight. The color appears best when light is shining on rather than through the piece and is due to the natural, untreated, chemical fluorescent properties of the amber. It was mined from the earth in the Indonesian province of Sumatra
