Exquisite Amber

I made a large, rare amber specimen from this amber-colored teardrop that I found at the kickoff.

Using a 1:12 scale, this sample would be approximately 30" long.  Exquisite indeed!  I tried researching world's largest amber sample, and found this history of the Amber Room instead.   The Amber Room was built in 18th century Europe, and once contained several tons of amber.  I won't reveal the rest, but it's well worth the read.
