In recent years, the price of amber has surged. The industry believes that its increase has exceeded 50%. Some even say that its increase will continue. Implied beauty is extraordinary Amber is a fossil produced by the qualitative change of precious pine resin after being squeezed through the earth's rock formation. It is not like gold and silver that can be melted and reworked, and its non-renewability is destined to be extraordinary. As an organic colored gemstone, amber has high medicinal value and paleontological research value. Insects, blood, gold, blue and blue have high collection value. According to the introduction of the Tianjin Jewelry and Jewelry Industry Association, the contents of the best insects have been small. lizard. "Thousands of years of pine trees, the oil drops down. It happens that insects pass by, and the oil drops on the insects. Over time, one drop, one drop, one drop... the tree oil completely wraps it and is buried underground. This probability is very low. In addition, collectors can also choose a unique, naturally formed amber. Wax is also amber, which is simply golden yellow and opaque. Named for its "color as honey, light as wax". The price of beeswax is lower than that of insects and is higher than normal amber. Collectors can systematically collect their personal preferences and aesthetics. Rare output rises reasonably In the past two years, the market for amber has risen, and the price of mid-to-low-end amber has doubled; the price of high-end amber has risen four or five times, or even higher, and some high-end amber has already surpassed gold. “Although the price has doubled, the overall price of amber is still lower than that of other jewelry.†Yi Yi believes that the price of amber is now easier to break the psychological defense of collectors, and those who love it will be the first choice for collection. Some time ago, Yi Yi went to the amber wholesale and retail market in various places to do a research. He believed that the amber market in different places was different, and it was generally influenced by regional and national factors. For example, the Inner Mongolian people specifically recognize amber, and the local amber sales are very good. With the promotion of amber channels, amber has a lot of room for appreciation. In addition, the import of amber in the past few years is decreasing. For example, the amber output of Fushun in Liaoning is scarce. Most of them are imported from Russia and Poland. However, domestic demand is increasing, and there is a pattern of short supply. "The world has so much storage, just like endangered species, maybe it will be exhausted after a few years or decades." Yi Yi believes that its scarcity will cause the price of amber to rise. Professional identification With the growth of the collection group, some imitations, reconstituted products and coba resin appeared on the amber market as natural amber. Peking University Gemological Appraisal Center Yu told reporters that plastic imitation amber (such as "Middle Eastern aristocratic beeswax" and "South African amber"), reconstituted amber (because of less and less raw materials, some people will be natural amber pieces Or powder pressed into a large piece of amber), Coba resin (naturally formed, but its formation time is much shorter than amber, about 3 million to 4 million years, the degree of petrochemical is very low, its nature is similar to amber, often Will wrap insects, many people mistake it as a collection of insects). "We generally use the salt water test method to remove the sinking imitation amber, and then exclude the coba resin and light plastic by infrared spectroscopy, then magnify the internal characteristics under the microscope, distinguish between amber and pressed amber. Look at it one by one to prevent mixing and reconstituting amber," Yu said. As counterfeiting and processing techniques have increased, the identification of these replicas has become increasingly difficult. Traditional methods of identification have not been able to effectively identify plastic-like amber (when its density is close to that of amber), and to reconstitute amber and coba resin. It is best to go to a professional testing center for identification.
