South Red Agate is so expensive because of hype

On May 6, 2016, the national unified quartz jade name standard, the South Red agate as an independent variety officially included in the national standard "Jewelry and Jade Name", "Jewelry and Jade Identification." This means that South Red will be attributed to jade. Then, we must analyze the investment value of Nanhong from the perspective of jade and stone. The ancients said that the beauty of stone is jade. However, the jewellery and jade industry has developed to the present day, and the demand for jade is not only beautiful. Jade must be characterized by beauty, durability, stability and scarcity. So does Nanhong have these characteristics?

1, aesthetics

Jade should have a beautiful appearance, or be bright, or transparent, or shiny. In short, jade should have a high appreciation value. The appreciation value of Nanhong can be seen from the following aspects:

First of all, Nanhong has a wide variety of colors and rich colors. South red color classification, want to know please poke → South Red color so many, South Red red, you really understand?

Secondly, although the luster of Nanhong is not as bright as a diamond, it is as bright as emerald, but the warm and soft luster is accompanied by its bright and lively color. The traditional low-key is always jeweled.

Finally, the texture of Nanhong is delicate and oily, and the gum is very strong, which has a good appreciation value. The warm texture is an important feature that jade is different from other gemstones, and Nanhong just meets this feature.

Based on the above, Nanhong has a very high appreciation value in terms of the type, color, luster and texture of Nanhong. At the same time, it is also an important embodiment of the investment value of Nanhong High Collection.

2, durability

In addition to high appreciation value, jade is more important to maintain beautiful durability, to have a certain hardness, wear resistance, and good chemical stability. Similarly, for the durability of Nanhong, we can look at the following two aspects:

(1) South Red hardness: 6.5-7, good resistance to characterization.

(2) Solubility of South Red: insoluble, the main component of South Red is SiO2, with high melting point, high hardness and stable chemical properties.

From the above point of view, from the perspective of the hardness and solubility of Nanhong, Nanhong has a very good durability and stability, and has a good collection investment value.

3, rarity

Even if the quality of the two kinds of jade belongs to the same grade, the output is different, and the market value is different. Nanhong is no exception, it is very rare.

It is well known that the formation of Nanhong is a volcanic eruption. The basaltic magma overflows the earth along the cracks in the ground. The large amount of gas in the magma forms a lot of pores when the basalt solidifies. These pores are then deposited by the underground hot aqueous solution. Filled with silica. If the silica contains a large amount of ferric ions (hematite), it forms a south red.

Therefore, from the analysis of the mineralization conditions of Nanhong, the mineralization of Nanhong is extremely demanding. First, if the iron ions contained in the silica are little or contain ferrous ions, a chalcedony or agate of light or grayish color is formed, and it is impossible to form a south red. Secondly, basaltic magma contains more iron than granite, but mostly ferrous, making basalt mostly greenish gray or grayish black.

Only the iron in the underground hot water is fully oxidized into ferric ions (hematite) to form a red and red color. The oxidation of iron ions is a very harsh condition. According to this, the formation of Nanhong is so harsh, the resources are so rare, and the quality of South Red is less. Therefore, from this point of view, the scarcity and non-renewability of Nanhong is also an important manifestation of its investment value.

Nanhong's history and cultural heritage

The Chinese civilization is the only civilization in the world with thousands of years of jade culture, and it has been stretching since the new era. Throughout history, the inheritance of culture requires a carrier. Nanhong, one of the carriers of jade culture, is well known as a matter of recent years, but there is a long process to trace humanity's discovery and cognition of Nanhong.

1. The historical and cultural status of Nanhong

In the ancient country of Jinsha 3,000 years ago, a coin-making craftsman used the tradition of the Sanxingdui ancestors to use the Beihai currency to create the earliest one of the world's first South Red products, the South Red Bay. The shape is simple and exquisite, after thousands of years of vicissitudes, but still vivid, the existing ancient Jinsha Museum. It can be seen from the "South Red Baycoin" that people at that time highly praised Nanhong.

The aristocrats of the Warring States period put Nanhong into a bracelet and wore it on the wrist, even if they were brought into the coffin after death.

Back in time to the ancient Shu Kingdom of more than 2,000 years, the third generation of the grandson of the king of Zhuang Xi was very fond of Nanhong. In his graveyard, he excavated the beetle and the head of the cow with Nanhong.

It can also be seen from the above two points that Nanhong belongs to the exclusive ruling class and symbolizes the lofty power position.

In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Baoshan Yongzi, once a tribute to the royal family, was said to be the main pigment of Baoshan Nanhong.

In the Qing Dynasty, the objects made by Nanhong were used as tributes to the royal family and reached the peak. For example, the first red agate phoenix cup in the Palace Museum in Beijing, the red and white agate double fish and so on.

It can be seen that Nanhong, as a rare and precious jade material, has won the love and admiration of the royal aristocrats and literati in the past with its bright and unique red color, and has played an important role in the history of Chinese jade culture.

2, red culture

Red - a color that most people can't resist, from ancient times to the present.

There are two reasons why the ancients liked red. One is the worship of the sun, the fire and the blood, and the other is because red is more common in nature.

Because Zhou Chao Chong Huo De, Zhou Renxihong is almost paranoid, even the funeral will choose the morning glow. The Western Han, who should have admired the yellow color, also likes red, because Kong Shengren called "red is the color of the elegant", for the orthodox, Liu Bang claimed to be "the emperor of the red", and later even the robes, palace columns, and costumes were red.

Until the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, the export of porcelain brought "China Red" to the world, and red was no longer exclusive to the emperor. In the Ming Dynasty, people connected red with life. Most of the folk customs related to red gradually formed at that time.

The Chinese people's love for red runs through the entire Chinese history, and red is integrated into all aspects of life. This kind of aesthetics is continuous. Therefore, it has not been unexpected that Nanhong has been enjoying the joy for thousands of years, and the red of Nanhong is ever-changing. There is a little subtlety in the dazzling, so that the beauty of the explored beauty is deeply rooted.

3. Cultural origins of Nanhong and Tibetan Buddhism

Nanhong is called ma.rai or ma.zhou in Tibetan, and is translated into Chinese as a red stone. As one of the seven treasures of Buddhism, Nanhong is inlaid on many statues of Buddha.

Buddhism Tantra believes that Nanhong is a strange stone that can communicate with the gods. It can be worn to escape evil and protect the body. It has been used as a talisman since ancient times, symbolizing friendliness, love and hope.

Therefore, many Tibetan Buddhist believers will wear Nanhong with them. Nanhong entered the Qing court with the Tibetan culture, and it also had a profound impact on the Central Plains Buddhist culture. Make Nanhong use, wear, and collect into more people's horizons.

4, South Red Status

As the source of the Nanhong mine in the Baoshan area of ​​Yunnan was found, the red agate produced was renamed “South Red Agate”. At first, due to lack of resources, mining difficulties, and low visibility, it has not received much attention. In 2009, Nanhong in the Liangshan area of ​​Sichuan Province came out, and the scale of mining continued to expand. The precious rough stone and the south red top grade continued to be produced, bringing unlimited vitality and fun to the South Red industry and collectors.

With the increasing awareness of the South Red market and the improvement of consumption levels, the Chinese people's consumption consciousness that has been infiltrated for thousands of years of jade culture will also become more mature, and the development of the South Red market will enter a new stage of development.

The current South Red, compared to the previous years, has turned over ten or even dozens of times, but people are still buying crazy, and more and more people are pouring into this market, at the current price, It is the general trend to continue to rise.

On the whole: Nanhong, as the representative jade of China Red, squats with the antique Qin and Han dynasty; it continues the Tang Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty legacy of the prosperous style; it follows the splendid and splendid Wei and Jin dynasty; it circulates the charm of the Yuan and Ming Dynasties. With its rich cultural connotation, it will continue to lead the crazy collection investment boom.

LSR Molding

LSR Injection Mould, is also called Liquid Silicone Rubber Injection Moulding, LSR Injection Mold & LIM, which can produce liquid silicone rubber parts or products by injection molded machines, not by traditional silicone rubber compression machines using traditional production method, but by liquid silicon rubber injection mould production, which is safer, more precise & environmentally friendly & transparent, using less manpower, and having high production efficiency compared with rubber compression mold.

Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) has existed since the late 1970s and has become the material of choice for manufacturing rubber parts and products. The distinctive qualities of liquid silicone rubber injection molding make it different from molding conventional high-consistency silicone and other thermoplastic injection molding processes.

Liquid Silicone Rubber injection molding has thousands of applications across a variety of industries, including medical, automotive, infant care, general industrial markets, aerospace, electronics, and many other specialized industries. While liquid silicone rubber injection molding works best for short- and long-run part production, customers can employ the process in the final stages of prototyping. The process is also suitable for the evaluation of different material configurations before green-lighting a project for full production.
