Easy identification of the three varieties of Aka, Sardine and Momo
One
On the left is Aka, in the middle is sardine, and on the right is momo
1. Front: It looks like there is not much difference, but you can find that the momo characteristic coral on the right is obviously lighter than the other two, and if you look closely at the coral on the left, there is a little white core on the surface of the coral, but the photo cannot be taken.
2. Back: You can see that the one on the right is obviously shallow with a white core, and the other two white cores are not obvious
Second, the glare flashlight test:
The Aka on the left will be transparent
The sardine in the middle has a significantly lower degree of light transmission than the left Aka
The momo on the right is also slightly translucent but less than the Akana on the left
Third, test the brightness of orange Aka and orange momo
The orange acres are translucent and shiny than the momo carvings in the picture below
The orange momo also transmits light but less light
4. Simple identification of Aka and Shadin
On the left is Aka, on the right is sardine, the color even the color of the sardine's cow blood is darker than Aka, the front is difficult to identify, but the gloss of Aka is better.
The Aka on the left clearly has a white core, and the right side has no white core
Zooming in, the growth pattern of sardine coral can be seen on the front.
The back of the acre is magnified to see a distinct white core
Zoom in on the back of the sardine
Illuminated by a bright flashlight, you can find that the transparency of Aka is better
When examined by a glare flashlight, the transparency of sardine corals is poorer
The original sardine twigs on the top are obvious, so the finished product will be more obvious after polishing
Fifth, the simple identification of Aka and momo corals
The front side of the Aka coral is darker in color, and the momo feature is more orange
On the back, the left Aka has some white cores but is not obvious, and the right momo white core has been inlaid to cover it is not obvious
The growth pattern of momo is more obvious
Zoom in and see that the growth pattern of momo is more obvious
After zooming in and comparing, the texture of momo is more obvious.
★ In general, it is more accurate to identify varieties with a magnifying glass, and the best quality aka coral live branches are difficult to observe under a magnifying glass.
