Cretaceous Age (66-145 million years ago)

Burmese amber, often called Burmite or Kachin amber, is one of the most sought-after fossil gemstones in the world. Originating from the Hukawng Valley in northern Myanmar, this amber formed nearly 99 million years ago from resin secreted by ancient conifer trees.

The material ranges in color from golden honey to deep reddish-brown, often translucent or nearly transparent. Many specimens contain inclusions such as insects, plant material, and even small vertebrates, creating a fascinating glimpse into prehistoric ecosystems. Burmite’s combination of visual beauty, rarity, and scientific significance makes it highly prized for jewelry, ornamental carvings, and display pieces. Collectors value Burmese amber not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its connection to life in the Cretaceous period.
