Mexican amber pebble, polished on one side and left in the rough on the other. Amber "very disturbed" of second quality but which has its charm! It shines well in the sun (but has no transparency) and all its internal bursts form pretty designs, especially since a face is perfectly flat.
A very sweet price because of the quality, but it's deals a nice piece!
Simojovel amber cut and polished by hand (by myself).

Mexico amber is derived from a resin/gum produced by legumes (pod trees). This sap then underwent a process of fossilization (time-pressure) for about 30 million years.
Less well known than Baltic amber, it is nevertheless more famous for:
- its range of colours (transparent, all shades of yellow, up to orange and red wine binds; with green, blue or purple highlights!)
- its hardness (probably one of the hardest in the world!) which allows a better work for craftsmen and artists who can sculpt it. It has a hardness of 3 to 3.5 on the Mohs scale while European amber reaches only 2 to 2.5.
- its many mineral, plant or animal inclusions.
In short, a whole world in every room!
It is found in the south of the country, in Simojovel in the state of Chiapas. It is mined, with respect for humans and the environment.
This amber was purchased on site, directly from a small craftsman.
