Most dealers are not educated enough to know the difference between natural amber and treated amber – or don’t want to know. ”Very few people actually can tell you what is genuine amber no less tell a fake from the real thing when they look at it,” according to Gary Granai of the Poland Chamber, Inc. ”This includes people who are selling amber.” For most it is just sell, sell, sell. The truth and the facts are secondary. And the gullible public believes every word.

A great supplier of fossil inclusions in amber! Could not have the business I do have currently without AmbarAzul!

I completely agree! True, natural amber is the most beautiful I have ever seen. I have always enjoyed preparing rough Dominican material and have been amazed at the variety of color one can come across without having to treat it with any type of enhancements.

Considering the massive supply of Baltic material available in comparison to Dominican and Chiapas ambers, is it any wonder that the purveyors of Baltic fossil resin want to maintain their domininion of the amber market? Then there are those who feel that “succinite” is only true amber. If only more people knew about Dominican and Chiapas material, the price would skyrocket in my opinion.

Well put! I have always been frustrated with companies such as JTV who do not give you the whole story behind what amber really is. They give you bits and pieces and expect you to fill in the gaps. By the way, did you know that Baltic amber is hundreds of millions of years old? According to some of JTV’s hosts it is! Talk about Cretaceous/Jurassic age amber!
