| 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 in its natural form is resticted, we only
export semi-polished or polished amber.
This is of great advantage for the customer.

We receive our blue amber from the mine with only a little edge broken off and have to
guess the color and quality of the stone. Now our craftsmen, carefully polish at least part of the rough stone.
Therefore, you can see
much of what you might get. So we carry most of the risk. Nevertheless, please understand that
only after completely cutting and polishing it, you will know what the stone
really looks like. |
