Mating Octopuses - caught in the act (or, okay, posed), these intimate octopuses go up on your wall to remind you to keep in touch, as it were. Plastinated, this display is forever.

Anatomically Correct Heart Pendant - silver-plated white bronze, a good solid weight, on a fine silver chain, ready to wear and appropriate even for medical professionals.

Assorted Animal Penis Bones - we know, these were in our last newsletter, but we thought a reminder would not go amiss.
|
Darwin Day Statuette - and before Valentine's Day, there is always Darwin Day on February 12th (also Ron's birthday)...4.5" bust of the bearded scientist (Charles not Ron), this item makes a wonderful teacher gift as well as a nice addition to your own curiosity cabinet.
|
Tooth Fairy Pack - Jamie Grasso emailed to ask if we could put together a package of assorted animal teeth that he could leave under his daughter's pillow instead of the usual fairy money, and we were happy to oblige. He had read about us and the Tooth Fairy idea in a book called The Opposite of Spoiled by Ron Lieber, who suggests that a creative and educational twist on the Tooth Fairy tradition makes for parental awesomeness. Pack of 6 teeth, with indentification key.

The Bone Room Amber Room is an online store, dedicated mainly to inclusions in amber. Note that though the site is already extensive, it's only the beginning, as we have only just started to catalog the collection of amber (and copal, and burmite, and amber jewelry) we have to offer. We hope you will return from time to time to keep an eye on additions and developments.
We have designed the website so that the customer can search by insect order or by type of amber. Please note that most pieces are illustrated by several photos; click on a specimen to see more details about that piece.

Ron Cauble, founder of The Bone Room, was obsessed with inclusions in amber. At Fossil and Mineral Shows he would typically be found seated at an amber dealer's booth, a great pile of amber pieces before him, peering through a loupe at the world inside each piece.
Over the years, some of the pieces were sold to collectors and scientists (most notably, to George Poinar, recognized amber expert and author) - but Ron was always a better collector than salesman, and his collection grew to museum backroom proportions.
Finally we are getting a good start on cataloging and photographing his enormous collection of amber and copal, and offering this work of love and obsession to the public. We think Ron would approve.
