Amber Listserv / Variations of amber

[Andy Ng]

Hi guys,

The 3 pieces pictured were rejects from my white amber pile (not white
enough). It's been a long dusty day but I decided to sand n polish them up
all the same, and after I did, they seemed very familiar. It only dawned on
me when I placed them on my marble table....the 2 pieces on the left are
strikingly similar to the marble! On top of that, there's a very slight
tinge of purple in the lighter-colored portions of the pieces (hope you can
see that in the photo). That purple tinge does not appear under incandescent
light.

The second photo is also another piece from the reject pile that I polished
up. Pity about the fissure and very distinct resin flow/ resin layer
lines...if not for that, it'd have made for an interesting piece coz of the
color combinations.

Andy
