Original Message: Re: Amber?

Hi Susan,
Amber is one of my specialties.
Joyce and I have agreed that in the near future I will compose an informational article about amber, that will go up here.
For some information about "cherry amber" read the posts gleaned from recent messages archived here, via the link below. (I did a search on "cherry amber" encompassing 300 to 30 days ago.)
Your piece does appear to be carved on the back side—and the description also says that. It is certainly not "cherry amber," and that's a name that should be discarded. The question may be if your piece is really amber (?). Perhaps is it—but MANY things that are called amber are not; and most things that are called "cherry amber" are not amber.
Nevertheless, it is a good-looking pendant.
