Amber Listserv / Burmite stocking stuffers

[Arlie Haig]

Those pieces are nice, but in my opinion *very* pricey.
I have gotten amber from a Lithuanian site, some really nice pieces 
including a 0.3" spider in a 1.7" x 0.7" nugget. Her is the URL:

Of course LIthuanian is not Burmese - but then isn't there some call to 
boycott goods from Myanmar due to the repressive political  regime?
