Products description
Plaffeiite is a rare alpine amber from the Paleocene, found in the Gurnigel Flysch of the Swiss Alps.
It fluoresces strongly under UV light, contains no succinic acid, and originates from fossil conifers.
Due to tectonic deformation, it’s unsuitable for jewelry.
Most specimens come from old collections, as the original sites are considered exhausted.
