In the jewellery market, you can often see “amber” and “beeswax” sold by merchants, which are actually the same kind.
Amber sold in the market is divided into two types: amber and beeswax due to its transparency. Generally speaking, there is no distinction between types of amber, and the sales names of amber on the market include the red “blood amber”, and the “Baltic amber” named after the place of origin. These are the names of amber. It is not a kind, so no matter what the name refers to it is amber.
The color of amber ranges from light yellow, golden, orange to red. There are also some rare green or blue ambers. The refractive index is 1.540 and the hardness is only 2 to 2.5. Be careful and easy to scratch, and the specific gravity is only 1. 00~1.08, sometimes the specific gravity is slightly higher due to heavier inclusions, but the highest is not more than 1.3, so amber will float in saturated salt water, which makes it and other materials made of amber imitations such as glass It is easy to distinguish. Rubbing with a cloth can make the amber electrostatically charged and absorb fine particles and dust; in addition, the real amber can smell loose after rubbing, which can also be used as an auxiliary identification basis.
The so-called beeswax is amber with low transparency. Many people believe that the magnetic field function of beeswax can prevent evil, maintain health, and keep fit. It is also a sign of good fortune and wealth. In fact, beeswax is amber. Commercial amber is divided into amber and beeswax due to its transparency. These two names are just the difference in transparency, and there is no distinction between high and low. Both are called Amber in English. Amber is regarded as one of the seven holy products in Buddhism, and it is believed that it can drive the aura. The “Compendium of Benfei’s Materia Medica” also records: “Amber safes the five internal organs, calms the soul, eliminates blood congestion, cures poison, breaks scabs, produces blood and produces muscles, and fetus” is one of the five treasures of Chinese medicine.
