South Red Agate has been hot for a few years, and prices have skyrocketed. The ancients had the saying that "agate had no red one", while the "South Red Agate" texture was more delicate, the color was festive, and the quality of the boutique was relatively small, so the value was finally discovered and received a blitz. In my great days, there will be fraud in the hot things, and more and more fakes in Nanhong this year. Recently, a red agate produced in Africa has appeared on the market. It is very similar in appearance and texture to the southern red agate of some producing areas. The African red agate is cheaper and not well known, so many unscrupulous merchants began to use it. Pretending to be a red agate, many of them are used as the Baoshan material and Liangshan material of the South Red Agate. Here we take a look at how African red agate and southern red agate distinguish.
First, the distinction between the original stone
1. From the perspective of the husk, the “African Red Agate†is mainly made of coarse hemp leather, and some is frozen skin (similar to red leather), which is very similar to some egg skins of Baoshan, but can be from meat quality and color. To distinguish.
2. From the perspective of morphology, “African Red Agate†has a high degree of integrity, high hardness, and most of the raw materials are egg-shaped. The Baoshan South red is low in integrity, and the material is multi-grain. The raw materials are mostly blocky.
3. From the texture point of view, the red meat of “African Red Agate†is mostly in the middle of the original stone. The red periphery is wrapped with transparent material from transparent to milky white to blue gray to grayish black, that is, transparent crystal is wrapped with red meat (frozen core). The red agate is mostly red with a transparent crystal (meat core), which is one of the characteristics of the two.
Second, the distinction of finished products
1. From the color point of view, most of the “African Red Agate†is far less dense than the South Red Agate.
2. From the perspective of water permeability, the “African Red Onyx†is very obvious even if it is not seen through natural light under the flashlight.
3. From the perspective of completeness, the “African Red Onyx†is much less cracked than the South Red Agate Baoshan and Joint Materials.
4. From the perspective of fleshy structure, the internal lighting of “African Red Onyx†can be seen like the cinnabar point and texture of the joint material and Baoshan material. The combined material and Baoshan material have a strong graininess, while the “African red agate†cinnabar is floating. Fog-like, like a tiny wire.
5. From the perspective of the finished product form, due to the characteristics of the “African Red Agate†frozen package (see the original stone classification 3), the finished product will also form this feature.
