The History of Amber
The Beginnings of Amber
While Baltic Amber is dubbed as a gemstone, it is actually made from fossilized resin from pine trees, and it has been around for thousands of years. Not only has it been around for a long time, amber in itself takes just as long to be created from the trees. It is not possible to plant a pine tree today, and expect it to transform into amber within a few months or years. 
Amber is a craft and gift given to us for use from another period. This may answer the question for some who wonder why there are insects trapped inside some of them. It has long been believed that they were sealed within resin as it dripped down the pine trees. Time and weather are the key ingredients in the creation of amber, which is mostly found in Northern Europe. The change from resin to amber occurs from ploymerization, a hardening processing where molecules merge to form bigger particles until it becomes insoluble.
What Does Amber Look Like?
Amber comes in an array of colors that depend on the resin's condition and components. The typical color most see amber as is a golden brown that can be compared to honey. It can come in other yellow to orange colors as well as black in red. Although rare, amber can also come in blue in white. Amber has several colorful natural forms, and it should be note that the color variances do not alter the benefits or effect in any way. It does, however, change the 
value. Since red and blue are not as common as yellow amber, they are looked at as more valuable. Clarity also affects value, and the more transparent it is, the more it will likely cost you. Cloudy amber can be made clear, but a special process is needed to complete it by heating it up with oil. It should be done with extreme caution because there is a possibility the stones will develop cracks.
