4. Ask whether pearls are imitation or real. Real pearls are made by oysters or other mollusks; imitation pearls are man-made. Cultured pearls are made by mollusks with human intervention; and irritant introduced into their shells causes a pearl to grow. Real pearls that are not cultured are fairly rare and expensive. The cost depends on size, usually stated in millimeters, and coating or “nacre” on a real pearl, which gives it its iridescence. 5. When you’re buying a diamond, consider four criteria: cut, color, clarity and weight, usually stated as carats. Each factor affects price. Color is sometimes “graded” on a scale. However, scales are not uniform: a “D” may be best color for one scale, but not for another. Make sure you know how a particular scale and grade represent color of diamond you’re considering. A diamond can be described as “flawless” only if it has no visible surface cracks or other imperfections when viewed under 10-power magnification by a skilled diamond grader. 6.

Green Amber is a completely natural variation of Baltic Amber. The green color is a result of plant interaction with resin. While green is a more valuable color of amber than brown, best quality of amber remains clear, transparent, and flawless. Slightly softer than Baltic amber, Dominican amber is prized for its coloration, including yellow and deep red, as well as distinctive (and rare) blue and smoky green hues that come exclusively from that area. Shocking Information about Amber The ancient name for amber was "electron," root word of electricity. Around 600 B.C., it was discovered that if an amber stone was rugged vigorously, it became electrically charged. Believed to carry a negative electrical energy charge, amber was used to draw power and energy into its bearer. In addition to its ability to attract energy and power, amber was believed to aid intellect. It was prescribed for memory loss; eccentric behavior; anxiety, and indecisiveness.
