| About Rough Blue Amber |
| |
Blue amber comes in different shades of blue. Which is the best is a matter of taste. It is difficult to put them into categories, since it is not an industrial product.
In some, the blue tone can only really be appreciated under an ultra violet light source (below).
Then you will find a strong blue reflection in the yellow undertone.
There is a cherry, a purple tone and -especially when there are inclusions to reflect the color- this strong, almost ultra-blue.

And - of course - there is everything in between, never the same, because it is the beauty of nature and not a semi-industrial product like reconstituted and enhanced material from some countries.
Since the export of rough (raw) Dominican amber is resticted, we only export semi-polished or polished amber. This is of great advantage for the customer. We only receive it from the mine with a little edge broken off and have to guess the color of the stone. We carry most of the risk. But we olish large window we polish into the rough stone, you can see much of the quality you might get.

Nevertheless, please understand, that neither we nor anyone else is able to look completely into the stone. So it is always a surprise in a certain way even to the most experienced craftsman. Therefore, although there are some basic indications that might help, only after ompletely cutting and polishing it, you will know what the stone really looks like. |
