What are the tips for picking amber?

When you first contact amber, you should first confirm what kind of product you need. Buying amber is hard to pursue perfection. This is due to the nature of amber itself. Some tiny lines, small holes and wraps are just a special part of amber. So below we will share some of the experience of picking amber:

琥珀

weight

Any gem needs weight as a reference for measuring value, but it is not absolute. Two identical weights of amber will differ in value due to color, inclusions, cutting and carving techniques and design creativity. At present, the price of a Baltic amber rough stone of more than one kilogram has far exceeded 200,000 yuan. With the decrease of production and the increase of demand, amber is still rising, so counterfeit products are emerging endlessly.

Color

The color of the Baltic amber is formed by changes in succinic acid, such as transparent yellow, golden yellow, blood red, opaque yellow brown, honey yellow, and the pearl white white density is relatively rare. After the amber is unearthed, it is exposed to different substances in the air and different temperatures and humidity, so that the amber is oxidized and the color becomes warm and transparent. This is a substitute for wearing other gems. The brown-red old beeswax is formed like this.

Inclusion

The beautiful amber is the only gem in the world that has preserved the creatures for thousands of years and is still intact. The biology, air, water and other elements in amber are still precious materials for scientists to explore ancient information. The poet Wei Yingwu of the Tang Dynasty once had a poem: "It used to be the old man, the yuan is the cold pine liquid, the mosquitoes fall into it, and the millennium is still beautiful." That is to describe this situation.

Remind you that amber usually contains only small insects, and spiders and spiders are rare.

Design and craft

If any gemstone is not cut and polished well, it will not show its uniqueness and beauty. Without a unique design, the product will lose its soul. The hardness of amber is about 2 to 3 degrees Mohs. The cutting and carving need to be superb technology first. The craftsman needs to design and creative according to the characteristics and shape of amber gemstones in order to show the beautiful qualities of amber.
