Amber Cleavage

When it comes to choosing the best pick among Organic gemstones, Amber is known to be a popular choice!Physical properties of Amber include its hardness, gravity, fracture, cleavage, etc. For any gemstone crystal, Amber Optical Properties are responsible for imparting various physical properties to its structure. Knowledge of these properties is equally important to gem-cutters as well as to consumers. Amber cleavage is nothing but the plane across which the crystal splits during cutting. Amber cleavage is None,and specific gravity of Amber is 1.05-1.10.

The physical properties of Amber, in fact, are imparted by the chemical composition of its individual molecule. The reactivity or inertness of the crystal is solely governed by its chemical structure. Chemical composition of Amber is represented by [C,H,O].
