As always, I learned a lot about a stone (or non-stone) just from your one, informative entry.<br /><br />Given the extremely lengthy natural process that creates amber, is there any danger of it being over-collected?

The natural 'faults' in crystals can be points for breakage.<br /><br />Meg - Thanks for the comment!

I think this is great info not only for buyers, but for craftspeople who work with natural stones. I wonder how many jewelry crafters know the many definitions of "crystal!"Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08754785071196846157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8951276427139680625.post-74900404515359557062011-02-20T19:34:56.798-05:002011-02-20T19:34:56.798-05:00Andy, thank you for reading and commenting!

I have no doubt you are right - it is probably the nature of language that we move between shades of definition, and then to formal and informal uses. There are certainly many other terms in jewelry other than 'crystal' that can be ambiguous. Not a problem as long as we all still know what we are talking about!Lunar Dreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06799345199253223896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8951276427139680625.post-11108743582880513912011-02-19T21:58:24.206-05:002011-02-19T21:58:24.206-05:00That's a really interesting point, I can think...That's a really interesting point, I can think of a few other examples from geology like sand or soil, which mean specific things depending if it's a scientific or informal context, and things like clay and spinel, which mean different things even when just speaking scientifically...
