 AMBER: begins as a sticky resin that flows from pine trees and, through a process of heat and pressure, becomes fossilized over time. Small insects, plant material, feathers, dirt and other small objects in the path of the flow often became encased within the Amber stone. Amber increases in value with the rarity and perfection of the entrapped object. Amber can range in color from dark brown to a light almost clear lemon yellow, and is sometimes color enhanced through heat treatments finishing the process that nature began.

"Block" Gemstone is the general term used to describe either a reconstituted or man-made reproduction which may or may not contain any natural byproduct or gemstone partials. The reference to "block" more often describes the process whereby a mixture of resins and dyes are combined to produce a loaf sized block suitable for carving small heshi beads and intricate pieces for inlay work.
