This high quality Dominican Amber differentiates itself from Baltic Amber and Mexican Amber by being nearly always transparent, and it has a higher number of fossil inclusions.

Amber belongs to a small class of organic gems, neither a crystal nor a mineral, but a biological product of nature. Like a Pearl.
