Dear Mr Schaeffer!

Unfortunately I cannot answer your questions about the amber as this material does not belong to the field of our local industry, and there is no comparison material available. I have passed your letter on to Prof. Andrée in Göttingen, who is a specialist in amber and has published many scientific papers on it.

With best regards!
