This is amber from Mexico, Chiapas amber, Simojovel mines.
This is a truly exceptional scorpion-in-amber specimen—one that immediately stands out even among high-end pieces. The amber itself measures approximately 1.5 inches in length and is beautifully clear,
allowing an unobstructed view of the scorpion within.
If fully extended, the scorpion would approach
nearly 0.5 inches, though it rests naturally with its tail curved, presenting at about 0.3 inches. That graceful curve gives the piece a sense of motion, as if the animal were captured in a living moment rather than simply preserved.
The clarity of the amber is outstanding, highlighting fine structural details—from the segmented tail to the delicate legs and body form. Pieces like this, where both preservation and visibility come together so perfectly, are increasingly difficult to find. This is not just a good specimen—it’s the kind collectors search for over years. Whether you’re adding to a serious collection or looking for a true centerpiece, this is a rare opportunity to own one of the finest scorpion inclusions I’ve encountered.
