The popularity of amber jewelry has been a long time, but with the development of the economy, amber jewelry and amber art are more and more people's attention, and its collection value is increasingly prominent.

In recent years, amber jewelry in the jewelry industry can be described as a ride, the price soars every year! What is the reason for Amber to have such a huge advantage in the latecomer, and push the price of amber to triumph?

Here are a few reasons for the abundance of amber:

First, the process is complex, reflecting double value

Amber is a precious organic gemstone. It is known as the “lightest jewel” and has a high ornamental and medicinal value. In recent years, amber has become popular in China and prices have risen steadily. Amber has been a decorative art since ancient times. It is an organic colloidal turpent that flows out of the bark of pine trees thousands of years ago. It is deeply buried underground and gradually condensed into natural fossils through the movement of the earth's crust. .

Sales of amber art in major cities across the country have grown rapidly, but amber production will not soar as sales increase. It is reported that the origin of amber is mainly distributed along the Baltic coast, and some open-pit coal mines in Fushun, Liaoning, China are occasionally produced, and then the most scarce Dominican blue lop.

In addition to limited production, since the carving of amber is different from the carving of common jade, it takes a long time to train a qualified craftsman, and it takes several dozen processes to complete a piece of carving.

Because of this, for a long period of time in the future, the collection and investment value of natural amber carving jewelry will continue to increase.

Second, the market is getting better

According to Xiaobian, there are few collectors of amber art in the past. Until the mid-1980s, with the prevalence of the religious heritage market, amber began to be popular in Singapore and Japan, and the number of collectors increased. In recent years, many European and American art lovers have joined the team that competed for the purchase, which prompted Amber to become the new darling of the collectibles market, and the market price climbed all the way.

At an art auction held in Taiwan in 1992, a fine-quality amber bead was finally sold for NT$1.2 million, causing a sensation in the international art market. At present, the transaction rate and price of natural amber art auctioned at various large-scale auctions in China are lower than other jade. Generally, the transaction price of amber beads and bracelets in the Qing Dynasty is mostly between 20,000 and 50,000 yuan. In the collectibles market, the transaction price of amber art is basically the same as this level.

Due to the gap in the price of amber at home and abroad, some amber collectors in Southeast Asian countries have begun to pay attention and gradually enter the domestic auction market.

Third, functional scarce resources

The main reason for the increase in the value of amber crafts is its special raw materials. In addition to its good ornamental value, amber has medicinal value. Li Shizhen, a Ming Dynasty medicine practitioner, described in detail the medicinal properties of amber in the 37th chapter of the Compendium of Materia Medica.

Since amber is the "essence" of natural matter condensation, it contains elements that promote the body's metabolism, remove toxins, and improve the body's disease resistance and anti-aging ability. According to a boss who has been wearing an amber bracelet for a long time, wearing this thing is a sinister evil, and it is a lucky one; the second is to relieve his back pain and shoulder-shoulderitis and play a health care role.

In Europe and other places long ago, amber has become as valuable as gold and has become a symbol of noble status. According to Xiaobian, in the domestic market in the past three years, amber has become the new darling of the rich in China. The amber collection has been flourishing, and it has won the market with its own beauty. Because the supply of amber is not renewable, the collection market is bullish all the time. Compared with the price, the price of amber is super gold.

As the wealth of Chinese people grows, many investors hope that the steady rise in amber prices will provide asset-safety, and the rising price of amber has become irreversible.

There are more than 100 amber producing areas in the world today. So where is the hometown of amber? According to the International Amber Association (IAA), more than 85% of the world's premium amber is produced in the Baltic Sea region. As early as the Middle Ages, amber processing and trade began, and the world-famous “Amber Road” gradually formed. ". In this respect, the Baltic coast is known as the hometown of amber.

The most famous mining areas are located in the coastal and coastal areas of Russia, Ukraine, Lithuania and Poland. The amber in this region is the largest mining area in the world today, and its raw ore is commonly known as: Baltic amber. The vast majority of Baltic amber contains succinic acid that is beneficial to the human body, so it is also known as succinite (succinic acid).

So far, Kaliningrad, Russia, on the eastern shore of the Baltic Sea, is currently the world's largest amber mining site. Its mine reserves account for around 90% of the world's total, reaching 200,000 tons, but due to Russian official control, the annual amber ore mine The amount of mining is only about 300 tons, including a large amount of small materials weighing a few grams.

Therefore, the quality materials suitable for making jewelry should not exceed 30 tons, and the quality materials that can be exported to Russia are not more than 5000 kilograms. According to the 35% yield, only less than 2000 kilograms of high quality amber products are supplied to Russia outside the country. The market, especially the Asian market.

In addition, the Dominican Republic around the Mediterranean Sea and the gemstone country of South Asia - Myanmar also has a world-famous amber mining area. China's Liaoning Fushun area is also a very famous place of production, but now the output is extremely rare. The color and quality of amber are different depending on the amber origin.
