| What is Blue Amber? |
Dominican Blue Amber is real NATURAL amber, fossilized resin of ancient trees which was formed through a natural
polymerization, up to 40 million years ago. It is not treated or "enhanced" in any way. Dominican amber comes in many natural colors.
We have yellow and honey and "amber" amber, of course, but also red tones, green, purple and BLUE.
Is it really blue? Blue amber is blue, but not the way you might think. When sunlight strikes the Blue Amber on a white surface the light
particles pass right through and are refracted by the white surface. Result: the Blue amber looks almost like any other Caribbean
Dominican amber, only with a light blue hue. If you place it over a dark surface, the light particles can't refract off it,
so it is the Amber that refracts, and the hydrocarbons in the Blue Amber turn the sun's ultraviolet light into blue light particles.
The result: the famous blue glow of Blue Amber.
Is this common with any amber?
No. This effect is possible with Natural Dominican Blue Amber pieces graded within the Blue Amber category.
Baltic amber, for example, will not display this phenomenon at all. Other Dominican amber will
show this refraction only in concentrated UV light, but not in natural light.

| About Us |
"At Santiago, in San Domingo, in the valley of the brook Acagua, amber pieces, some as large as the egg of a goose, reward the
explorer." - J.G. Haddow, 1891
Although times have changed and amber is not found as easily anymore as J.G.Haddow described it
in 1891, we do have our contacts directly into the mines, to the miners and owners of the mines and speak their and your language. We are your direct link.
Our Dominican Amber is still the REAL thing, natural amber as it comes from the mine.
It has not been heat enhanced or colored or treated to "enliven and brighten" the stone. We sell it just the way Mother Nature intended.
And that woman DOES have her own style...
