What is the International Amber Association?
The International Amber Association, formerly known as the Amber
Association in Poland, is a group which gathers the expertise of
producers, tradesmen, merchants, artists & scientists from all over the
world. The Certificate granted by the Association guarantees producers
use only natural raw amber, properly processed to obtain the highest
quality final product, free of artificial pressed amber.
Unfortunately, the rising prices & popularity of amber goods stimulate
the production of false amber, which is continuously improved &
manufactured in ever-increasing quantities. Only infrared spectroscopy
is a reliable indicator of amber authenticity.
The Stowarzyszenie Burszytynnikow w Polsce (International Amber
Association) grants such certificates to companies of unblemished
reputation, additionally covering their production with expert
supervision.
Andzia's Amber is thrilled to announce that at this writing (November
2004), we are the only retail/wholesale outlet in the United States to
become full certified members.
