Origin
To begin with, it should be noted that amber is a fossilized resin with very interesting properties. This stone does not form crystals and is classified as an amorphous framework polymer, which is known to be a high molecular weight compound.
Amber does not show pleochroism, dispersion and birefringence. It is also impossible to interpret the light absorption spectrum. But then there is luminescence, represented by interesting shades, ranging from white-blue to yellow-green.
What is another unique physical property of a stone? Amber is flammable. It can catch fire from the flame of a match. Also thispetrified resin is highly electrified and highly polishable.
The main thing is not to store amber in the open air, because it actively oxidizes under the influence of oxygen and ages. As a result, its chemical composition and color change, and fragility increases.
