Amber Origin

Amber is fossilised tree resin, appreciated for its colour and natural beauty since ancient Neolithic times.

It is used for decorative pieces, jewellery, as an ingredient in perfumes and as a healing agent.

The molecular polymerisation occurs during high pressure and heat by overlying sediment transforms the resin into copal, continually heat rids terpenes and results in the formation of amber. Amber can sometimes retain its formation of drops or stalactites, lumps and irregular forms if found in hollow cavities or cracks in trees.

Amber is heterogeneous in composition but consists of resinous bodies. The decomposition occurs when heated above 200 degrees Fahrenheit.

It is usually a yellow-orange-brown colour but can range from a whitish, pale-lemon yellow, brown and even black.
