Forever Amber!

I don't suppose one person in fifty remembers the somewhat 'racy' novel of that name back in the fifties! Today Linda and I met rock and mineral dealer Belle at Stalham: we had some meteorites for him, which we exchanged for some large pieces of Indonesian and Burmese amber.
The Indonesian material (which in fact originates on Borneo) is fairly ordinary-looking in daylight, but in UV it glows with the most incredible turquoise and indigo shades.
