GUIDE TO AMBER IMITATIONS

Gabriela Gierlowska:
Guide to Amber Imitations

ISBN 83-917704-3-5

This is a small booklet, 5.75 x 4 inches and has a soft cover. It is the only book that I have ever seen that deals with fake amber. Many articles and books mention fake amber, but this one is devoted to it! What a treasure trove of information. The pages and pictures are on high gloss paper. Easy to read and by far the most informative guide to amber imitations that I have ever seen.

Here are some of the 'chapters':

Amber imitations from Natural and Synthetic Resins

Imitations from Colored Glass

Polish Post- War imitations

Contemporary Polish Amber Imitations

Imitations from Russia

Imitations of Inclusions in amber

Protection of the Polish Amber Market

Classification of Amber Gemstones

Amber Identification

This booklet is loaded with information that everyone should know. It is almost like "this is the book that no one in the amber business wants you to read." Its not, we all want everyone to be educated in amber and their imitations.

The last page in the book goes over the properties of thermoplastics and their properties when used as amber imitations.

For the experienced and the inexperienced amber enthusiast, this is a must have!

Here are 32 non numbered pages of great information, this small booklet has a very good price of $3.75.

This book is mailed "Media Mail" (which means it will take an extra day or two in the U.S. to get to you.)
