Often times, in some countries rare colors are produced by applying a certain paint to the backs of the amber stones, which causes the beholder's perception of green amber or other, which naturally does not appear in those places. It also is heated up and cooled down to produce the "sun sprangles" (flints). It is cleared in caccum chambers (autoclaved).
Often cheap amber flooding the market is made only of amber rejects and amber sawdust or meal, colored, heated up and pressed. Misleading expressions are being used like: reconstructed, improved, enhanced etc.

But for our Dominican amber we use none of these methods. It is not heat treated to reproduce the green, cherry and blood red color, neither boiled in the fat of a suckling pig or rapeseed oil to make the amber transparent, as some did and do even more now. Our Dominican Amber is the REAL thing, natural amber just the way it comes from the mines.
Please look at some more color examples. At the time shown, not all of these might be available, but others are.
