Squeezing What is Amber?

Squeezed amber is a synthetic resin that is produced in various colors in the laboratory with special formulas and contains a chemical called phenol. Contrary to popular belief, pressed amber is not a natural material. However, it does not contain the smallest plastic, that is, petro-chemical products. Squeezed amber is a special material because its formula is secret and its construction techniques are complex. However, its most distinctive features are its color change over time with use and the soft and comfortable shooting feeling in the hand.

The best example that we can explain what a squeezing amber is in the simplest way is the diamond. Today, diamond rings are very valuable and are sold at high prices. Diamond rings prepared in the same carat and laboratory environment are offered for sale at more affordable prices.

Just like in the diamond example, there is a type called "Squeezed Amber", which is prepared in a laboratory environment because its nature is very valuable, and the word "Squeezing" here qualifies that the product is not natural amber, but produced by artificial means.
