Though there is some faceted material in the market now from Burma, this is a lovely and very bright gem cut from Dominican Republic Amber.  The color is a fine and very bright yellow - remember that Amber is extremely light, so this stone is much larger than you might expect from its actual 1 1/2 carat weight.  Custom US cutting and a fine polish - like most Amber this one is highly fluorescent to UV lighting, just have a look at the last photo.
