<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lecollectionneur, post: 460797, member: 8569&quot;]On specialist discussions it appears that hey are not all varieties of amber which gives positive results with the UV tests as precised on your link, for me it&#039;s not the better testing, when I need use amber to make a repair, I always use the test with solvent first when I found the good color, translucent and size, for repairs the use of reconstituted amber when it matches is acceptable ethically(nearly always a lost cabochon).</p><p>It&#039;s necessary to precise with the heated pin that as for all testings you proceed only on a non visible part, with beads near the hole for example, and to make it with light pressure only.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
