Huge cab |

This is a very large piece of Dominican amber with swirls of darker stuff
in a cognac color. It has some crazing and some chips on the back but can be
set to make a tremendous statement. |

A very clear, very rare green cab of Dominican amber. The rough came from

jewelry. |

Fungus gnat |
amber |
Not only is this a nice cabochon for setting with some definite green tones in it but it also contains a very nice complete example of a fungus gnat on the front as well as another unidentified bug on the back. Bugs in green hued amber are not common. |

irregular multicolor |
amber |
Lovely darkish multi-colored piece with cognac, reds and greens as well as
what some call green foil —a formation on the back of this that reflects
light out in a sparkling green. Exceptional specimen for a multicolor that
would go great in jewelry. |

Very special colors |
amber |
This is a very special piece of amber. A remarkable menagerie of color. If I could I'd just as soon keep it. These colors do not turn up every day. Red, blue, green, yellow, purple, amber, cognac orange, black in a blue amber with purple tones? Right. |

Natural sparkle red |

Orangish red cab with natural sparkles on the back to bring out the color.
Natural amber doesn't get redder than this. I wouldn't have believed the color if I hadn't cut it myself. |

6 sided Amber crystal? |
amber |
Nope. I cut it as a 6 sided tongue. It has a craze that goes about a third
through but a simple band to hold it atop the craze and this is as clear as
amber gets, especially in this size. From the top there are also red and green
highlights. |
