Featured Is This Stone Amber?

Oh Greg that's a wonderful idea and I'll do just that!! I will report back
How have you been? I hope everything is okay in your world x

 

The other benefit is that you now have a reference piece for comparison.

 

Wonderful, so it is amber!
I should have stuck to my initial thought, but that bluish green fluorescence threw me off. I have never seen that colour fluorescence on cognac amber before, and it isn't in the usual lists, but I will add it to my fluorescence file.

 

Perfect. As an amber lover, I feel your joy!

 

Yes. Absolutely. I don't think I am quite brave enough to purchase amber online. It is difficult to tell from photos. Having said that some sites seem more reputable than others. I do study the reviews very closely

You did say amber straight up

 

Yep!!! That was me in the mall

 

Hi Tracey,
Have fun with your UV light, Just do not use it in your local grocery store.

I purchased a piece of cherry amber from this on line seller, that I was very pleased with.

That is a beautiful colour Kiko and thanks for the details x

 

I was very satisfied by this vendor. The color was as advertised and the pendant beautifully polished. It passed the black light test. I bought a similar piece in St. Petersburg Russia but I was unhappy with the findings and the color. I sold that piece for what I paid for it and bought this piece online instead. I have several amber pieces and I now am looking for specific colors. That’s why I went online.
