Distinguishing the true and false dzi beads can be seen through the weathering line. Real dzi beads can see natural and irregular weathering lines under a magnifying glass of ten times, while fake dzi beads have no weathering lines. In addition, the real dzi beads can be glossy and smooth, while the surface of the fake dzi beads will be dry and look less shiny.

Characteristics and value of dzi beads

In the eyes of Tibetans, dzi beads are no different from cash and can be realized at any time. But do you really know DZ well enough? You think it's worthless, but someone wants to buy it. Of course, we are talking about real dzi beads, not those artificial beads. Tibetan cultural beads generally began in the Tang Dynasty and continued into the Qing Dynasty.

Materials are generally bone beads, dzi beads, agate, turquoise, coral, beeswax and so on. Most of their beads are related to religion, and they are self-contained and have the function of amulets.

Because of the mobility of nomadic people, most of the wealth of Tibetans has become these jewels worn on their bodies. In recent years, Tibetan gems and beads have become popular, and their prices have soared year by year.

Among them, the dzi bead, a kind of stone that is considered to be full of mysterious power, has become the king of many gem beads because of its mystery and rarity.
