there different between natural amber and press amber.

most buyer think press amber is a natural amber.

that is not true.
some of the characteristic of natural amber get lost by making pressed amber
like smell of amber with lemon and static electricity.

but press amber has less prices

I try to buy natural amber drilled (1.5 mm- 4mm) beads if I can find them.
or pressed amber

I am now interested oval 10x 8 mm or 10 mm, 8mm,4mm round
natural or pressed amber (black or brown, blue and other natural colored one)
also buy gemstones.
