Lizard Leg for sale

Lizard Leg

Ever wondered what a 25 million year old lizard leg looks like...........here it is. This is a relatively small piece of Dominican amber that has surface glazing. About half an inch in any direction, this contains the remains of lizard's leg. Much of the leg muscles are gone and it is difficult to see both the tibia and fibula.

You can just see some of the phalanges. Some of the toes terminate at the surface of the amber. It appears that some of the skin was moved in a resin flow because you can see the skin as if someone had lifted it and placed it next to the leg.

As I am sure that everyone knows, reptilian bones in amber are about as scare as hen's teeth. It is just something that you do not run into very often (much for something like this to be for sale.)

I do not know what type of lizard this was from, only that it was from a lizard. This is a rare find and a plus for any collection. The surface glazing can be buffed off, if you know how.

The scanned image does nothing for the specimen. It is difficult to see with the scan.

Postage for amber will usually cost $5.35 (USD Priority Mail in the USA) or 1st class mail anywhere in the world. There may be exceptions to this. We will get your sample to you as soon as possible (usually mailed the same day or at worst, the next day). U.S. orders go out by Priority Mail, overseas as Air Mail. Books are normally mailed "Media Mail", unless they are light, in which case they are mailed first class. Overseas books are air mail unless the weight is prohibitive, in which case you will have the option of surface (ship) or paying a bit extra for air mail. All prices are in U.S. dollars. If you are overseas and want something other than normal air mail - contact us when you make the purchase. For any questions, please contact us at sales@ambericawest.com.

Our emails are sent immediately, so if you don't receive it, it is likely caught in a spam filter. You will receive another email when your order ships which will contain the shipping information.

You can pay 3 ways, either by credit card (located on each page as the 'buy now' button), a personal check, or purchase order.

Finally, if you feel more comfortable, feel free to call us at 719-488-2654 (this is in the United States). This number works as a fax if you would like to fax your request or purchase order.
