Beschreibung:

Oligocene Chiapas, Mexico Los Caicos, Dominican Republic A set of two matching blue amber specimens comprises a first-quality blue nugget from the Dominican Republic and a superb sea-blue-green finely polished Mexican piece. The Dominican nugget displays a polished side window, revealing the extraordinary blue neon glow which only the top quality Dominican amber possesses. The Mexican nugget offers a fully polished face and side which displays the exceptionally beautiful aquamarine blue-green colors emanating from this classic semi-opaque specimen. Mexico and the Dominican Republic are the only countries that produce blue amber. As a side-by-side display, the present specimens provide an excellent presentation of the two blue ambers of the Western Hemisphere. (2) Dominican nugget measures 2 x 1 x 1in; Mexican nugget measures 2 x 1 ¾ x 3/4in
