This is the most important way to identify amber. There are generally beautiful lotus leaf scales in the popcorn amber. It has different feelings from different angles, and the refractive power will not be the same, emitting a spiritual light. The transparency of fake amber is generally not high, and the scales emit dead light. The observation from different angles is almost the same, lacking the aura of amber. The scales and patterns of fake amber are mostly injected, so most of them are the same. The most common one in the market is red scales.

Amber density between 1.05-1.10 in saturated brine of 1:4 (salt: water), amber, lightweight plastics and resins can float, ordinary plastic, glass, acrylic and bakelite sink.
(Friendly reminder: this method is limited to bare, the salt water concentration is not heavy enough, the amber with a lot of impurities in the body will sink)
Beeswax identification method 7: thermal test
The needle is burnt red thorn amber is not obvious, there is a light and loose flavor. Bakelite and plastic give off a spicy odor and stick to the needle.
Beeswax identification method of true and false eight: knife needle test
The paper cutter cuts the amber into a powder, the resin will fall off in pieces, the plastic will be rolled, and the glass will not be cut.
Using a hard needle and a horizontal line to puncture amber at a 20-30 degree angle will have a bursting sensation and very fine powder residue. If it is a plastic or other substance with different hardness, it will either stick or be sticky. Get in.

The rosin is put into the syrup and it will melt slowly.
(Friendly reminder: Some amber has a layer of glazing material, it will become white spots under the rubbing of the potion, but this layer of white spots can be scraped off with a nail shell to expose the amber surface, and the potion is wiped on it without any change. There will still be 18%-20% melting of amber, and the surface may become foggy for a long time.)
Beeswax identification method of true and false ten: ultraviolet radiation
Place the amber under the detector, which will have fluorescent, light green, green, blue, white, etc. Amber and Jinpo are the most obvious discoloration. The discoloration of blood and beeswax is not obvious. The more transparent, the more obvious the plastic will not change color.

Take amber on the clothes and rub it to attract small pieces of paper.
Beeswax identification method 12: spending money to identify
Get the CMA Jewelry Appraisal Center to measure the refractive index, density, etc.
The best test method: eye, ultraviolet radiation, hand, salt water, other methods more or less even if amber is detected will cause certain damage to amber, the above identification method can not be used alone, should use a variety of test methods Separation of layers, de-authentication!
