Real amber turns blue under UV exposure.

Blue amber (or blue amber) is the rarest and least common variant of amber in the world, which under the influence of UV light (such as sunlight) transforms from golden brown to an intensely fluorescent blue color.

Natural phenomenon: Under artificial light or against a light background the stone appears yellow, honey-colored, or deep dark red. However, when exposed to UV radiation, the molecules (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as perylene) light up and a spectacular blue glow appears.

Origin: This type of fossil resin is millions of years old and is mainly derived from the extinct prehistoric tree species Hymenaea protera. Blue amber originates from the Miocene and Oligocene, geological periods dating from 15 to 40 million years ago.
