[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4508868, member: 2844"]Lovely egg yolk amber pendants, and I agree, very likely Polish. Honey amber and egg yolk amber are different colours, so they fluoresce differently. Some don't fluoresce at all. Your pendants fluoresce like some egg yolk ambers, sometimes it is more whitish. Nearly all amber is heat-treated, especially amber beads, but that doesn't influence the fluorescence.[/QUOTE]
