Amber & Orange Gems


The Persian name for amber is kahraba, which translates roughly to “attractor of straw”. This is most likely a result of the static charge that can be created with amber by rubbing it with wool or animal fur, thus attracting light objects such as straw or wood shavings. The English name is a derivative of “al-‘anbar”, which is the stone’s Arab name.

Is Amber a stone? Technically, the gem is improperly called that way as it is a fossil resin.

Colors of Amber stones-The characteristic color of amber is that warm golden to brown yellow, but the stone actually comes in various shades from green to a reddish orange and dark brown. Occasionally, you may see whitish, bluish, and even blackish exemplars. Red, blue, and green Amber gems are very rare.
