Blue Amber Rough - per piece

Blue amber is a rare variety of amber resin that exhibits a blue coloration. Blue amber has been most commonly found in the Dominican Republic—especially in the amber mines around the city of Santiago and, less commonly, in the eastern half of the country. In the modern age, it was discovered at about the same time as Dominican amber. Under artificial light, the amber appears like ordinary amber, but under sunlight it has an intense fluorescent blue glow. When held against the sun it will appear like ordinary amber, and under ultraviolet light it will glow a bright milky-blue. Please note that this is rough, and only has veins of the blue running through. Interestingly, Blue amber emits a very agreeable smell (aromatic molecules), which is different from regular amber when it is being cut and polished.
