Recently, the South Red Agate has become the darling of the collectors. As the South Red is hot, various imitations of South Red have begun to appear on the market. Although it seems easy to distinguish at present, we still cannot take it lightly. The identification of the South Red Agate can begin with its basic features.
Color - The common colors of South Red Agate are Gansu's persimmon yellow (orange red), red, pink, and unusual purple, as well as transparent or translucent variations of these colors, including near-transparent colorless, all of which are approximate. Defined as the color scale of South Red. And the white color of the animal head agate cup grain is more than the situation, there are ribbons like the texture is also white and red half and half. Note here that the pattern of Nanhong is very sharp, and all the lines will have obvious angles when turning (one of the important criteria for judging), giving a clean and sensation (that is, red and white), and Nanhong is apart. The color of the white color, the red is gradually changing beyond the transparency, there will be no other changes (sometimes mixed with some associated minerals, black or turquoise).
Texture - texture, South red is a gel texture. Even if the red beads are not opaque, you can see that the color is transparent from the inside to the outside. On the contrary, even if the colorless beads have a feeling of embarrassment, it is noted here that this texture is temporarily unpreparable unless it is new. In the past, fake South Red was basically made of pure red.
Weathered lines - most of the beads on the outside, the old beads, the old chalcedony, the agate beads will have a half-moon-shaped weathering pattern, this line is mainly due to long-term use, the beads and other valuable value of the old The bead has already appeared in the new imitation of the weathered lines, but it can be clearly seen that the surface powder and the water-fermented pulp do not match, and they are not uniform, dull, and the texture is dull (the crescent-shaped interior, the old weathered pattern) The interior of the new moon is shiny, but here, it is noted that the dyed Nanhong, which is produced in large quantities, has been weathered, and most of the cracks on the surface of the agate made by direct high-temperature burning.
Punching and hole--the hole in the south red agate is very unique. It may be double-sided punching and then beading (the hole will not be small). After a long time of use, the hole is worn. Very smooth.
Finished shape and grouting - shape, the south red material is small, the color is evener, the volume is smaller, so the big ones will make ornaments, the small ones are used for beads or pendants. In addition to pendants, common olive-shaped pieces, positive beads, drum-shaped beads, barrel-shaped beads, wheel beads, abacus beads, melon beads, septa, drop-shaped beads (droppers), mostly round beads, also have Various carvings made by the block.
