Do you know what amber wax is afraid of?
Amber is a precious organic gemstone that has passed through thousands of years:
The auspicious treasure of Tibetan Buddhism, which is regarded as the evil spirit of evil spirits, is often made into a rosary or amulet, and is used by Buddhist believers to bless blessings;
In the Chinese medicine industry, one of the five treasures is a precious Chinese herbal medicine that can treat many diseases and is often worn by people to make jewelry that is worn close to the body;
In the collection world, it is a new investment variety, and the black and white in the wenwan industry is widely favored.
Still, amber is still just a gem that needs to be cared for, it is afraid of the following things:
amber
1. Amber (beeswax) fears high temperature
High temperatures and large temperature differences can cause damage, so we should not expose amber (beeswax) to the sun for a long time, or place it next to a hot object, if you are roasting the fire next to the fire. Do not wear amber (beeswax) bracelets.
Second, amber (beeswax) fear of organic solvents
Amber is easily soluble in organic solvents and is afraid of strong acids and alkalis, so try not to contact organic solvents such as alcohol, gasoline, kerosene and nail polish, perfume, hair gel and insecticide. Amber jewellery should be removed when spraying perfume or hair spray.
Third, amber (beeswax) fear of sharp objects scratching and hard object impact
We all know that agate jewelry with relatively high hardness is also afraid of hard objects, and the hardness of amber (beeswax) is lower, so it is more difficult to hit hard objects and scrape sharp objects to avoid scratches or cracks. .

Amber is not easy to maintain improper damage
After the amber rough is unearthed, it has been manually trimmed, polished, engraved, etc. If it is not maintained, the following problems will be encountered in a few years:
1. Discoloration: The original colors such as honey yellow and indigo become tan, the contents are no longer obvious, and the amber luster becomes dull;
2, crack: amber surface cracks, such as the sun after the sun exposure, severe, even deep and internal, causing collapse and collapse (usually due to long time in a high temperature, dry environment, normal wear, play Will not cause such damage);
3, the fluorescence reaction disappears: usually Burmese amber, Dominican amber under ultraviolet light, the surface will show a light blue, blue-green, light purple fluorescence, but the old amber has no such reaction, need to grind a layer The fluorescence reaction can be reproduced after the epidermis.

The main reasons for the above various damages are:
1. Long-term intense lighting, sunlight, radiation, and ultraviolet light can cause undesirable physical damage;
2. The water will slowly evaporate under high temperature and dry conditions, causing cracks;
3. The chemical substance of the fluorescing component (similar to the phosphorous substance) will slowly evaporate under natural conditions or be caused by the oxygen product without fluorescence reaction, dullness and color change;
4. Oxygen in the air will oxidize with amber, turning amber into a brown color;
5. When the temperature is too high, the amber will crack.

How to maintain amber:
The hardness of amber is 2-3 (the same hardness as that of Shoushanshan). Normal wear and play will not cause damage to amber. Pay attention to the following aspects when maintaining:
1. After the amber is stained with dust and sweat, it can be soaked in warm water with a neutral cleansing oil. After rubbing it with hands, wipe it with a soft cotton cloth.
2. When not wearing, it can be stored in sealed or sealed plastic bags, glass boxes and plastic boxes to avoid evaporation of water and phosphorus substances;
3, amber is afraid of high temperature, do not stay in the sun for a long time, warm stove, should be stored in a cool room, the temperature difference between day and night, if placed in the cabinet, a cup of water can be placed in the cabinet to maintain humidity;
4, avoid contact with alcohol, benzene, turpentine, gasoline, kerosene, perfume, nail polish, hair gel, insecticide and other organic solvents, spray a perfume should first remove the amber jewelry;
5, amber hardness is low, do not put together with diamonds, or other sharp, hard jewelry, it is best to store separately to avoid rough, scratches, etc. on the friction surface of the same hard object;
6, need to avoid wrestling, bumping.

Amber maintenance taboo
Amber is an organic gemstone. Unlike mineral gemstones, it contains a variety of oily substances. It should not be rubbed with oil during maintenance. Amber does not need the nourishment of oil; oil can not increase the gloss of amber, but it will produce a greasy, sticky feeling; long-term contact with oil, oil may break into amber, odor after a long time, destroying the fragrance of amber.
