Compared with other jewels, amber not only has the warmth of jade, but also the spar of the spar. The rosary made with her is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is easy and pleasant in the hands. Amber is the only one that can last for tens of millions of years or even billions of years. Preserved organic gems that are preserved by insects or plants.

With the rise of amber in the last four or five years, with the maturity of the accreditation body and people's understanding of the characteristics of amber, this ancient gem has renewed its brilliance. The amber market has ushered in a boom in consumption, and its price has multiplied several times in recent years.

At present, the world amber market has an annual transaction volume of about 200 million U.S. dollars. The international market is mainly concentrated in the United States, Canada, Italy, Japan, and some amber-producing countries. Jewelers from Russia, Poland, Germany, etc. are also actively promoting Amber to jewelry consumer markets in other regions. Although the transaction rate and price of natural amber arts auctioned at domestic large-scale auctions are lower than those of other jades, some amber boutique auctions continue to hit new highs and are becoming new favorites for collectibles.

Since ancient times, China has used natural amber as a material to make utensils and decorations. Amber pots, bracelets, beads, etc., produced a price of several hundred thousand yuan, and even more than a million yuan.

The scarce quality of amber, combined with the scarcity of resources, has raised the price of natural amber in the domestic and foreign markets. Most domestic amber raw materials need to be imported from overseas, especially Russia, Poland and other places. In 2010, there were media reports that the supply of amber raw materials and products was insufficient, causing amber sales prices to rise. The year-by-year mining volume has dropped, and there has been a serious shortage of supply. The increase is even greater. As early as the second half of 2009, Polish amber appeared to have insufficient supply, and amber prices tripled or quadrupled, and bulky raw materials rose even more.

In the international arena of art, the amber market was a flat market. In the 1980s, with the prevalence of religious heritage markets in Taiwan, amber began to be popular in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and Japan. With increasing prices, prices have risen all the time. What follows is a large number of counterfeit products that flood the market. Many unscrupulous merchants are trying to gain more profits and fraudulent use of counterfeit products. As a result, the market is filled with a large number of products. Fake fake amber goods. Especially those rare and precious amber products, counterfeit goods far more than the real thing, false amber fish mixed, a serious blow to the enthusiasm of some consumers. There are still some unscrupulous merchants selling the so-called “noble beeswax”, “beef beeswax in the Middle East”, and “beauty beeswax in the snow” sold as natural beeswax at an expensive price. In reality, all of them are synthetic products or regenerated beeswax. Make real valuable natural amber challenged and shocked.

The varieties of amber and beeswax on the market are uneven, unlike jade and diamonds, which have a clear identification standard, causing a large number of bad goods to flood the market. The amber market was once sluggish.

Among the more than 100 amber-producing regions known worldwide, they are roughly classified into two types, Hepper and Mineral Cooper, depending on the region they produce. Hepper is mainly distributed in countries along the Baltic Sea coast, and mines are mainly distributed in Burma, Dominica, Mexico, and Fushun in China.

Seabass has a relative density lower than that of seawater and can float on the water. Its production accounts for more than 80% of the world's amber production. The amber that we see in shopping malls is mostly sea amber. Due to the huge volume of production, the market will also be scaled up. Due to cultural preference, beeswax in China Haipo will be more dominant and consume the most.

The mine has a long history, tough quality, and many colors. The disadvantage is that there are usually too many impurities, and the volume and purity of the mineral amber is very small. Therefore, under the same quality, the price of mineral amber is 2 to 3 times higher than that of haipo. The amber produced in our country is miner's amber, Fushun amber because of the depletion of mineral deposits, so the price doubled, it seems that an obscure Fushun material is also expensive, almost forming a situation without market price.

In addition to being an organic gemstone, amber can be used as an accessory and is also beneficial to the human body and can be used as medicine. Amber official medicine was first seen in the Southern and Northern Dynasties Tao Hongjing's "Doctors do not record", which summed up the three major effects of amber: First, Jing Jing An God, the second is blood stasis, the third is diuretic Tonglin. With the deepening of people's understanding of amber, this kind of gem is also more and more people love and collect.

China's amber collection market is still in the development stage. Compared with the prices of other colored jewelry, the market price of amber is much lower, which is more suitable for the general public. Due to the special texture of amber, the weight of the amber is much lighter than other jewels. The colors are pleasing to the eye but not to the public. Some of them have light rosin when they are rubbing. Men, women and children are suitable for wearing, which provides amber with a wider consumer group.

The rise of amber has benefited from the economic downturn in Europe in recent years. According to Anna Gangelchi, the export manager of S&A, one of the most important amber jewelry companies in Poland, the demand for amber has never decreased compared to other luxury accessories: “It is certainly not a necessity, but it is not a luxury product like diamonds. "After the financial crisis, those people who originally bought diamonds may have bought amber."

For manufacturers, China's spending power on "luxury goods" is their most valued. In the past 1 to 2 years, China's market is also the most important incremental market for traders in Poland and other countries. Therefore, from the perspective of supply, amber consumption growth will continue. Considering the value-added factors, the color, size, and whether or not to wrap up plants and animals are the most important factors for collectors. In general, the amber that surrounds the plant is considered to be more precious than the normal amber, and the amber that encloses the insect is more precious than the amber. The Polish Dansk Amber Museum has a lizard amber. Its preciousness lies in its large size and rareness. Because usually small insects are wrapped in amber, lizards like this reptile are very easy to get rid of the bondage of large oils.
