Amber is a tree resin which has been fossilised for between 25 and 40 million years. During this time it has matured under high temperature and pressure. Amber is sometimes brought in by the tide, so if you live on the coast it is always worthwhile taking a look. You may be lucky enough to find a piece of amber.
For commercial purposes amber is extracted from rocks. It is a comparatively soft material and has been used to make jewelry and perfume since history began.
Purchasing an amber necklace may seem costly but it is made with amber rocks. These are a unique piece of history created long before living history. This isn't really something which can have a price on it.
Of course, some amber necklaces are more expensive than others. Amber which is rich yellow in color in medium to dark is particularly valuable. The most important fact in deciding the price is the color intensity. An amber necklace which has fossils inside the stones will also be more expensive due to its rarity.
Blue Amber is considered to be the rarest shade of amber and it is hard to obtain. In fact only 0.2% would be blue. To see the blue color the amber stone should be held in the right lighting. Blue amber contains fluorescents inside which can turn into a bright blue color if it is exposed to a fluorescent light.
Blue amber is mainly found in the Dominican Republic. In the past people believed that blue amber could be used to control the spirits. It was also used to get blessings from the gods.
The main factors which determine the price of amber are its color and intensity. Clear amber is far more valuable than rings which look cloudy or opaque.
Always be gentle when cleaning your amber jewelry. Use a soft flannel cloth and avoid harsh cleaning materials. Clean the necklace using a damp cloth and lukewarm water then polish the beads. Use clear olive oil to polish them, wiping the excess off with a different cloth.
The polishing will keep the amber necklace looking great and at its best. Always ready and waiting for you to wear it out to a wedding anniversary meal, party celebration or coming of age party.
