Southern red, southern red agate is also.
The main production areas are Sichuan and Yunnan. The color is red as the main color. It is divided into persimmon red, persimmon yellow, flame red, brocade red and other colors.
There have been those few years. Southern red fly yellow Tengda. It can be said that the pole is the scenery. Measured in grams, at one point it was even more expensive than Hetian Yu. Now there seems to be a bit of a bleak taste. In addition to the firm price of high-end Nanhong, the middle and low-end are a thousand miles.
Of course, the Warring States Red Agate, which debuted at the same time, did not even have the opportunity to scenery.
I even heard a story about a businessman who held a little money in his hand, when the agate was not worth a few dollars, he re-speculated about the Warring States Red, and the result was nothing. But one of his friends, Tun a lot of Southern Red, but made a lot of money.
The same full-colored egg noodles can be bought in the small hundreds of Warring States Red.
And a good southern red onyx egg noodle, not to mention full of color and meat, is the ice floating thousands of up and down.
What is a gap, that is a gap. The same agate, the same hardness, the same nature, but the color texture is slightly different, the origin is different, how is the price gap so big?
This has to say two words, because Nanhong debuted and was named "Red Jade". In our country, wherever the word "jade" is associated, it seems that a golden light has been set, and the price will rise. For example, ordinary green pine is not valuable, but jade is definitely valuable. Huanglongshi doesn't care about money, but Huanglongyu is not cheap. Inside the wax, white honey shaped like white jade, but it is really more expensive than the so-called chicken fat yellow!
Thinking like this, was the price of Xuanhua Warring States Red Hanging a "Topaz" also rubbing up?
The word "red jade" originally referred to the red Hetian jade. Because red jade was extinct long before the Eastern Han Dynasty. Therefore, now the merchant loves to say how to listen to it. Left and right is not a name. Agate has always been a semi-precious stone, pan-jade, no matter how red it is, how hard it is, always with warm jade, or not very close.
I say this without disparaging intentions. It's just that every stone has the beauty of each stone, and there is no need to lean on the "jade". Crystal beauty is clear, gem beauty is in the radiance, pearls are unique, corals are moist and red. Therefore, southern red agate, as a characteristic agate, must have its unique beauty.
Moreover, in ancient times, agate was also one of the precious pan-jade stones. We can see in some museums, a lot of royal supplies, also made of agate. And the price is not cheap.
China has been revered since ancient times. At present, the main production areas of Nanhong are first, Chuannanhong, and second, Baoshan Nanhong. The red flesh head of southern Sichuan is slightly lacking, and the red jade in southern Baoshan is highly degreed, but there are many cracks. But it's all relative. There are also high-quality southern reds with good color and meat, and Baoshan southern reds also have ordinary appearances. However, in recent years, the selection of materials and carvings in Southern Sichuan have become more and more exquisite, and some prices are even more expensive than Baoshan materials.
Regardless of which place of origin of the southern red, it is pure in color red. Among them, the most valuable with high degree of jadeization of full color and full of flesh, the gram price is even more than a thousand or thousands. It is said that the most expensive of the southern reds is the golden red. The market is scarce and valuable. The status is similar, the status of mutton fat white jade in white jade.
In life, there are still many friends who like Nanhong. After all, red is festive. The red material on the bottom of the ice is very beautiful to make jewelry. And the southern red with good color and flesh, accompanied by exquisite carving, has a lot of value for playing and appreciation.
Earlier, the southern red at the bottom of the ice was not valuable, and the price of ice drifting in recent years has also risen. However, if it is a very pure ice bottom, sometimes it is similar to chalcedony. Although, agate chalcedony is originally the same species. However, the market price really varies greatly. Chalcedony is cheap, southern red is expensive. The choice is a matter of opinion.
