Here is a nice "chunky" piece of Baltic Amber. Entrapped in the amber are six aphids and a fly. The insects exhibit very fine detail. The segmentation of the aphid bodies is very pronounced. The legs are nicely displayed. The insects are readily apparent in the polished block of golden fossil "ooze". This is a very pretty piece of amber with many insects enclosed. A close-up photo will be included for free.
