Is the amber jewelry sold by Zhou Dafu naturally?

Amber, as the oldest gem, formed tens of millions of years ago, is an organic glue body from the bark of the prehistoric pine and cypress plant, the resin, which is deeply buried in the crustal movement. During the geological period, the ingredients in the resin volatilize and aggregate to solidify it into amber. There are often various insects inside, such as ants, spiders, mosquitoes and seeds, carbonized leaves. Because amber has a long geological aggregation, it will produce gorgeous colors, and the spiritual and beautiful meaning of life is loved by people around the world. To this day, amber not only has become more and more popular, but also attracts collectors' attention with its "natural" characteristics. "Amber also has a health care effect." Xing Hongxiao, a salesperson of Haotian Amber Jewelry Store in antiques cities in Beijing, told reporters that magical amber is increasingly concerned, but it is necessary to learn to identify authenticity. There are five most commonly used methods.

This value of amber collection is showing

Mi as a gem jewelry material, which has a history of nearly 6,000 years. According to Xing Hongxiao, the classification of amber is diverse. According to the place of production, it can be divided into minerals and Haipper. The ore is formed by trees and accompanied by the coal seams. The texture is tough. It is mainly produced in Fushun, Liaoning, and Myanmar, Dominica and other countries also have considerable reserves. Haipper is produced on the bottom of the sea, accompanied by seawater, has a crystal clear texture, excellent quality, and belongs to the top of amber. It is mainly produced in Poland, Russia, Lithuania and other countries along the Baltic coast. The amber is divided according to the appearance, and the whole body is transparent, commonly known as "amber"; semi -transparent, commonly known as "beeswax"; between two types, called "golden twist honey". According to different colors and characteristics in my country, amber is divided into Jinbo, bloodpo, wormpop, Qipper, Lingpa, Shipbo, Hua Pop, Water Pop, Mingper, waxp, dense, red pine fat and so on. The most precious variety is amber wrapped in insects, commonly known as "amber Tibetan bee", which is a very rare collection. This product uses the insects with clear appearance, lifelike form, large, and most of them.

The amber has been auspicious jewelry since ancient times. In the 1980s and 1990s of our country, amber products entered the vision of collectors, and gradually entered the auction market after 2000. Especially in recent years, amber snuff bottle, pen washing, and Buddha beads have shot hundreds of thousands of yuan, or even millions of yuan, which has attracted great attention from collectors.

It is understood that factors such as the origin, color, purity, package and processing process of amber determine its economic and collection value. At present, the favorite amber products of collectors are exquisite artworks, especially in some years; the second is amber products that are good at natural products and containing biological remains. The insects are clearly visible, strong in color, and less impurities. Color is green and blood -red.

The identification of authenticity

If due to the economic and collection value of amber products, artificial amber made from resin materials on the market is used to impersonate natural amber. Five methods for identification:

The one is the test proportion. Stop the amber in 1: 4, the natural amber will float, and the pupa will sink. The density of amber is between 1.05-1.10 and the texture is very light.

The second is scalding with needle. Boil the red needle to burn the amber epidermis. Natural amber will be black, but it does not stick the needle and has a rosin taste. The crickets can be brushed, and even plastic.

The third is to listen to the sound. The inlaid natural amber beads, gently rubbing in the hand will make a soft and slightly dull sound, the sound of the pupa will be relatively crisp.

The fourth is to see gloss. Natural amber is naturally warm, the shiny and texture of the gray are cold and hard, and things wrapped inside will feel stiff. Under the sun, the natural amber has different angles, the color depth and refraction are different, and the pupa has no such effect. Put the amber under the inspection machine with ultraviolet rays. Natural amber will emit fluorescence such as green, blue, and white, and the pupa will not change color.

. Fifth is to test with ether. Wash the nail water with nail oil containing ether, wipe the surface of the amber, natural amber has no response, and the granules will be corroded.

It some other tips. For example, after rubbing the amber on the clothes, the authentic can attract small pieces of paper crumbs, and the pupae will not. When natural amber punching, it will have a rosin taste.
