This Burmese amber specimen contains a preserved leaf suspended within rich, golden Cretaceous resin. The leaf’s natural structure and venation are clearly visible, offering a rare glimpse into prehistoric vegetation nearly 100 million years ago. Botanical inclusions like this provide valuable insight into the ancient forest environment where the resin originally formed. The contrast between the organic plant material and the translucent amber creates a visually appealing specimen with both scientific significance and natural beauty.
