Bloodstone is a dickite in cinnabar, and its color is brighter than cinnabar. Because it is as bright red as chicken blood, people commonly call it chicken blood stone. The earliest bloodstone discovered in China is that of Yuyan Mountain in Changhua, Zhejiang. Later, bahrain bloodstone was discovered in Bahrain Right Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia. In 1990s, bloodstone was discovered in Shaanxi, Gansu, Sichuan, Hunan, Yunnan and other places. Now that Changhua cinnabar (mercury mine) is drawing to a close, the output of bloodstone is quite limited, and the market price is increasing day by day.
Color: The color of bloodstone is bright red, light red, purple red, deep red and so on. The most valuable is bright red blood with activity. Geographical location: Bloodstone occurs in the cinnabar head and tail of low-temperature hydrothermal deposits, volcanic rocks or hot spring deposits, and its output is quite limited.
Uses: Chicken blood stone is mainly used as seal or craft carving material. One of the "Three Treasures of Lithography".
Active ingredient
Bloodstone contains minerals such as Cinnabar, (Cinnabar), Yingshi, calcite, stibnite, dickite, kaolinite and dolomite, and most of them contain sulfide and silicate minerals with various components such as mercury sulfide. Different producing areas have different texture components, but they are all inseparable from mercury sulfide components. Bloodstone consists of ground and blood. It is generally believed that the mineral composition of blood is mainly cinnabar. The composition of "ground", such as Changhua bloodstone, is mainly composed of clay minerals, including dickite, and also contains a considerable amount of kaolinite, alunite, halloysite, Yingshi and pyrite. Bahrain bloodstone is mainly kaolinite and diaspore; The main mineral components of fine black frozen bloodstone and hibiscus frozen bloodstone are dickite and cinnabar; A few years ago, a dense block similar to "Jindinghong" was found at the top of a gold mine in Jilin, in which cinnabar is very fine, hard and delicate, and it is also a kind of hard stone containing cinnabar, which is called cinnabar jade locally.

shape
Bloodstone has no fixed shape and is called stone-like. Its colors are blood in pieces, blood in stripes, blood in plum blossoms and blood in floating clouds. Blood clots: irregular distribution, one in the east and one in the west. Some stones have a large piece of red on the surface, but there is no red inside; Some are just the opposite, so buying bloodstone wool is very risky. Bloodstone (original stone)
Blood strips: regularly distributed. Plum Blossom Blood: Like plum blossoms, the whole stone is dotted. Cloud blood: born in the indirect place of broadband or strip, that is, blood, plum blossom blood, blood like clouds in the sky, hence the name.
Bloodstone mine
form
Bloodstone is a kind of natural gem, which is extremely rare at home and abroad, because cinnabar (mercury sulfide) permeates kaolinite and dickite, making them integrate into one.
Goodbye.
Character; Role; letter
The composition of chicken blood is mercury sulfide, and the stone is dickite or kaolinite with hardness of 2-3 degrees. There are often mercury spots and a small number of timely particles protruding on the surface of stones. In addition to mercury sulfide, chicken blood also contains a small amount of color-developing elements such as iron and titanium, which is a dark dye. Its content is the main reason why chicken blood shows different red colors. When it is high, the color of blood is dark red. In addition, chicken blood stone also contains different photosensitive elements selenium and tellurium, which is the main reason why chicken blood fades or discolors (appears dark red) under light and heat baking.
Be distributed
Changhua bloodstone is produced in Yuyan Mountain, Shangxi Township, Lin 'an County, Zhejiang Province, and the mines are distributed in Kangshanling area.
exploit
Bloodstone was mined in the early Ming Dynasty, when it was exposed on the rock surface. The ancients mined according to the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction, and burned wood on bloodstone exposed on the rock surface. After all the stones are heated, pour them with cold water, and then pick out the bloodstone with a shovel. There are few cracks in this mining method, but the bloodstone may have turned black or darkened before mining, and the recovery amount is very small. This mining method continued until the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. The bloodstone based on the surface outcrop is exhausted, and the hole is blasted with explosives, and then dug deep by hand or machine.
distinguish
The stone with blood is called bloodstone, and the stone without blood is called Chang fossil. To evaluate bloodstone, we should first look at the red color of "blood", which has good freshness, coagulation and thickness. Fresh people are as red as blood; Coagulant aggregates but does not disperse; Thickness refers to the thickness and number of layers, which go deep into the stone layer. In addition, the spread of bloodstone is also an important basis for judging bloodstone. What kind of stone is the ground red? The ground of bloodstone is pure, translucent, and the bright red without nails is the top grade. The samples of bloodstone can be divided into square, rectangle, ellipse, circle and deformity, and the size is about 5-2 cm. Bloodstone is delicate, tough and compact in structure, and will not collapse when cutting. A good bloodstone is not carved, so it's better to make a seal. It can be said that cut chicken blood is generally used to cover up its defects, which is not expensive. Factors affecting the price of bloodstone 1. Bloody; The color of bloodstone is the most expensive from bright red, followed by scarlet and dark red. Bright red is also called "promoting blood circulation"; Dark red is called "dead blood" because it looks like blood coagulation; Second, blood volume; Generally speaking, the bright red blood volume of high-grade goods is above 30%, the fine goods are above 50%, and the treasures are above 70%. The higher the blood volume, the better. If it's all blood, it's a piece of cinnabar instead of bloodstone. For the completed sealing; Six-sided blood is the top grade, which is called "full house red"; It is true that there is blood on four or five sides; Three sides of blood is second, and one side of blood is second. Third, blood shape; There are three kinds: star (punctate blood), band (striped blood) and block (massive blood). The evaluation of blood shape should grasp the distribution characteristics of "blood" in stones. If the clouds are like fog and form an abstract figure, the value of bloodstone will increase.
Falsification method
Due to the high quality and price of bloodstone, there are many counterfeiters. The fake method of bloodstone is generally as follows:
Mosaic method
Take a Chang fossil seal with good texture, select several striking places, dig out small pits with different depths, then inlay it with red mercuric sulfide pigment, dry it in the shade and polish it naturally. However, this kind of embedded chicken blood (mercury sulfide) has no hierarchy, and the joint between blood and fossils is hard and there is no transition.
Impregnation process
Take a square fossil, coat it with mercury sulfide where necessary, then dry it in the shade, then dry it in the shade to make its blood slightly layered, then soak it in transparent resin to ensure that it is soaked to the skin, pick it up and dry it, and then polish it with fine water and fine sand. The fake bloodstone made by this method, because the resin is easy to age, the skin will turn yellow over time, which is out of harmony with the color of the stone inside; At the same time, the pores of the resin epidermis are relatively thick. Careful observation with a magnifying glass shows that there are a little tiny scratches on its surface.
Slice pasting method
Cut the six planes of the lithograph into six planes as thin as paper with a cutting machine. Apply mercury sulfide where necessary. After drying, glue the original six pieces back with blanching and glue, and then smooth the corner between the pieces and glue. In this way, the red color of chicken blood seems to be born in the stone chapter and distributed naturally. But the blood level can only stay on one plane after all. This Zhong Shiyin can only be confined to square or rectangular lithographs, and nothing else will do. Because the circular deformed lithograph can't be cut and carved, the trace of thermal adhesion of the sheet is exposed.
Nourishing method
This is made by adding mercury sulfide to true bloodstone, covering the added part with a very thin layer of resin and polishing. This method is to replenish blood with blood, which is undoubtedly icing on the cake and greatly increases its value. At the same time, there are fallacies in truth and fallacies in truth. Therefore, for the particularly good bloodstone, we must pay attention to the method of thinking of counterfeiters in parallel during observation, so as to avoid the consequences of "inadvertently losing Jingzhou". At present, the most famous bloodstone is named after Changhua bloodstone and bahrain bloodstone. According to texture, it is generally divided into four categories: frozen bloodstone, soft bloodstone, soft bloodstone and hard bloodstone. It is as famous as Tian Huang in Shoushan, and enjoys the reputation of "Queen of Yin Shi", which has made great contributions to the development of Indian culture in China.
Cultural connotation
Bloodstone is named after the bright red blood in the stone. The development of bloodstone in Yuyanshan, Changhua, Zhejiang Province began in the early Ming Dynasty and flourished during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, with a history of more than 600 years. Bloodstone is beautiful, crystal clear and rare, and has always been known as "the Queen of Stone", "Princess Yin Shi" and "Queen Zhang Shi". 1972 When China and Japan established diplomatic relations in September, Premier Zhou Enlai presented a pair of bloodstone commemorative medals of the Palace Museum to Japanese Prime Minister tanaka kakuei on behalf of the Japanese government. This incident caused great repercussions in Japan, Southeast Asia, China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and set off a wave of buying, collecting and viewing bloodstone. Bloodstone is a wonderful work among ornamental stones. The appreciation and evaluation of modern bloodstone are mainly restricted by intuition, psychology and value. In the past, it was mainly Zhang Shi, but in modern times it is mainly ornamental. Different people have different views, and there are many different appreciation angles and evaluation methods. General appreciation and evaluation are based on the color, texture, pattern, size (weight) and defects of bloodstone. Bloodstone comes in many colors. For example, red is bright red, bright red, light red, dark red, deep red and so on. , and bright red is generally the top grade. The amount of red is also one of the evaluation factors. Some people think that all red is the top, that is, in terms of the six faces of the seal, four red is the second, the opposite red is the second, and Dan Hong, top red and partial red are the second. All red bloodstone is commonly known as "Dahongpao". Others think that "the whole stone is red, and there is no other color to set it off." Without contrast, red is dim but not prominent. As the saying goes,' Peony is good, but it needs green leaves to support it' ".
Maintenance method
Bloodstone should be avoided being placed in the sun or under the lamp for a long time, so as not to reduce the value of chicken blood because the red part darkens. Usually, it should be rubbed or soaked in good lubricating oil, such as jade, to isolate the stone from the air, reduce the possibility of temperature difference cracking and increase the warmth of the stone. In addition, collision and breakage can be avoided. Proper playing and rubbing of bloodstone can make it look "old light", which is also commonly known as "treasure light" and become "old stone" more pleasing to the eye. The reason is exactly the same as that in Pan Yu. However, Yin Shi or sculptures engraved with thin ideas should be avoided, so as not to destroy the sculptor and make him unrecognizable. For the uncut Yin Shi, or the original stone, you may wish to rub it more; The uncut Yin Shi has the advantage of not being damaged easily. Playing with stones and raising stones is fun, and it is difficult to enter its territory without personal experience! 1. After wax sealing and polishing, the finished product is sealed with brocade box and stored in a cool place; If it is kept for a long time, it can be sealed with wax without polishing, leaving a thin layer of wax on the surface, which can keep the luster and color of the stone unchanged. Second, bloodstone should not be exposed to the sun, or placed in strong light for a long time to avoid being placed in a high temperature environment for a long time. Because the mercury in bloodstone is easy to be lost in the sun exposure and high temperature environment, the blood color becomes purple, dark or light. Third, oil maintenance is a widely used maintenance method in recent years. The method is to rub a layer of white tea oil or white wax oil on the finished product, so that the stone surface absorbs oil, becomes more crystal clear and bright, and the blood color is fresher. If it is sealed in brocade box after oiling, it can be wrapped with ordinary insurance film to avoid brocade box flannel being polluted by oil. Fourth, indoor ornaments, stone play, etc. You should wipe it often. If the exhibits are contaminated with dust and dirt for a long time, they can be gently wiped clean with soft thick cloth or flannel, and then brushed with a thin layer of oil with a fine brush to restore luster. Five, some small ornaments, stone play, decorations, it is best to play with your hands often, or rub on your face, so that a thin layer of oil is attached to the surface of the stone, which is more simple and elegant after a long time. Six, carrying Yin Shi, sculpture, wearing decorations, should avoid the impact of external forces, scratches and wear, but also should avoid contact with chemicals, so as to avoid deterioration. Seven, in the place of origin, raw stones and finished products that have not been polished or unsealed can also achieve satisfactory results by soaking in water mixed with royal salt. 8. If the finished product is washed once with fine imperial salt mixed with clear water before sealing wax and oil, it is because imperial salt is a mineral with high purification ability used in winter. Although it is called salt, it is composed of hundreds of minerals. It contains protein 0. 1g, carbohydrate 2.7g, calcium 552mg, potassium 192mg, sodium 92768mg, magnesium 463mg, iron 25.4mg, zinc 0.65mg, copper 0.38mg, manganese 0.56mg, selenium 0.3mg, and chicken blood washed by royal salt.
Diversity and appreciation
Changhua bloodstone can be divided into four categories: frozen ground, soft ground, hard ground and hard ground. Frozen bloodstone includes glass jelly, sheep fat jelly, ox horn jelly and peach blossom jelly. Which is slightly transparent or translucent and has a hardness of 2-3. The hardness of soft bloodstone is 2-4, and the hardness of hard bloodstone is 4-7, which is the product of late silicification of kaolinite and alunite. Hard grinding bloodstone is the product of silicification in the process of mineralization. Its geological name is Cinnabar silicified tuff or siliceous rocks containing Cinnabar. Its main component is silicon dioxide, and its hardness is greater than 7. The quality of Changhua bloodstone is blood and soil. The colors of blood are bright red, true red, deep red and purplish red. The shape of chicken blood is block red, stripe red, star red, glow red and so on. Fresh, condensed, thick, deep and thick are preferred, and there are aggregates or bloodstone in deep stones.
It is best to have a balanced patchwork. Blood volume less than 10% is normal, less than 30% is intermediate, more than 30% is advanced, more than 50% is rare, and more than 70% is rare. Full red or six-sided blood is best. The red psychic bloodstone is called "Dahongpao". In addition to the red "chicken blood", there are also basic colors such as black, white, yellow, green, blue, taupe, purple and cyan. Coupled with various shades of color, it is naturally muddy, without manual carving, forming a natural and beautiful pattern. Black and white ground and chicken blood are called "Liu Zhang Guan", which is also a wonderful product with colorful and varied colors. In addition, Changhua bloodstone also has Liu De who is "fine, red, moist, greasy, warm and coagulated". According to the color and texture of bloodstone, it can be divided into: Dahongpao, glass jelly, Tianhuang jelly, sheep fat jelly, ox horn jelly, cinnabar jelly, lotus root jelly, multicolored jelly, pink jelly, bean green jelly, agate jelly, wood grain jelly, fish brain jelly, roe jelly, snake skin jelly, snowflake jelly and so on.

Identification of bloodstone
Chicken blood stone can be divided into three ways: chicken blood, texture, weight: 1, fake chicken blood: no silver spots, different shades, uneven lines, unnatural patterns, arrangement does not conform to the occurrence law of chicken blood, and it is easy to distinguish with the naked eye. 2, texture: fake with plastic compounds, no stone feeling at all, and no stone chips when carved with a knife. Some people even sliced the bloodstone, then stuck it on the original stone, and then glued it with caulking glue and stone powder, which looks very similar to the real bloodstone. If you look closely under strong light, you can tell the truth from the false, or it is not difficult to see through whether the color of blood is consistent with the shape of the painting. Moreover, some people use stone powder and compounds to paint "cinnabar" or red watercolor on plastic molds to fake chicken blood. 3. Weight: The weight of real bloodstone is relatively stable, while the weight of fake bloodstone is relatively frivolous. Carefully measure the bloodstone according to the following steps.
Test: (1) Fine grinding with emery cloth, the true bloodstone will be stone powder with vermilion, but the fossil will not be (2) carved with a knife. After being cut, the false bloodstone will be plastic curly stone chips, which can be felt (3) burnt, the false bloodstone will have a burnt colloid smell, but the true bloodstone will not; (4) The quality is heavier by hand, and the fake bloodstone feels lighter because of its different texture. Identification: The real stone has a "blood-activating" surface, with a low hardness and a specific gravity of only about 2.6. Biting its surface with teeth or scraping its surface with a meat cleaver will leave traces. Iron ore and quartzite, which are similar in shape to bloodstone, have relatively high hardness and teeth are difficult to bite. If the merchants we meet try their best not to destroy the surface of bloodstone, we can also use magnifying glass and spotlight flashlight to detect it. Illuminate the surface of a gem with a flashlight from a spotlight. If its red color presents a sparkling illusion, it is true bloodstone, which is called "promoting blood circulation". If there are no sequins, it may be a fake, or it may be a lower-grade product in bloodstone. There aren't too many holes in the surface of the genuine product. Moreover, the real bloodstone surface is generally fine and smooth, and there will not be too many holes. False bloodstone is often dyed by impregnation. Over time, the pores of the epidermis will become thicker. If you carefully observe its surface with a magnifying glass, you will find tiny brown eyes, which makes it a fake. Finally, the red color of true bloodstone is three-dimensionally distributed from the inside out, which is very layered, and the process of color gradient is also hierarchical. However, the red color of fake bloodstone usually appears on one surface, which lacks a sense of hierarchy, and the gradual change process is also scattered, showing obvious signs of fraud. The bloodstone with the largest output in Changhua, Zhejiang Province is a gem originated in China, and the largest output in Changhua, Zhejiang Province is also called Changhua bloodstone. In the collection world, the most important thing is birth. Changhua bloodstone mine also has old pits and new pits. The bloodstone of the old pit is better in texture and blood color than that of the new pit. It is the most expensive bloodstone variety on the market at present, and its price is generally 2 to 3 times that of the new pit. The bloodstone in Changhua New Pit is more expensive than that in other areas. In addition, the blood color and brightness of bloodstone also determine its price. Bloodstone includes scarlet, Zhen Hong, crimson, pale red and purplish red. Its shapes are block red, stripe red, star red, rose red and so on. Generally speaking, it is best to have more blood, fresh color and beautiful shape; The blood quality is better, with a deeper sense of thickness, blood aggregation and balanced distribution. Blood color less than 10% is average, less than 30% is intermediate, more than 50% is rare, and more than 70% is very precious. All red is the best, known as "Dahongpao".
Bahrain bloodstone
China bloodstone can be divided into Changhua bloodstone and bahrain bloodstone according to its origin. Changhua bloodstone is produced in the deep mountain stream about 40 kilometers west of Changhua County, Zhejiang Province. Bahrain bloodstone is produced in Bahrain Right Banner, Inner Mongolia. Its land is fine and moist, with good transparency, mainly frozen soil and no sand nails. The red color on bloodstone can be divided into flake red, stripe red, dot red, dot red and mass red. The higher the degree of red condensation, the more concentrated the distribution, the larger the area, the better, and the higher the price of stone. The texture and blood color of some bloodstone are naturally interesting, exciting and attractive, so people give it a beautiful name: for example, a stone or seal whose appearance is completely covered by chicken blood is called "Dahongpao"; The top of the seal is red, and the stone on the body is as transparent as aspic, which is called "crane top red"; There are three colors on the stone: red, black, white (or yellow), which are called "Liu, Guan Yu, Zhang" or "Taoyuan Sanjieyi" because they match the faces of Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. In addition, there are Zhou Dynasty Red, Full Point Red and Colorful Red. , are all good for viewing and collecting. Bloodstone is mainly produced in Changhua area of Zhejiang and Bahrain Right Banner of Inner Mongolia. Bahrain Right Banner is rich in Bahrain stone. Balin stone is moist in texture and rich in color, which is suitable for seal cutting. This is a very good Yin Zhangshi, and it is also the best among the ornamental stones. Bahrain stone is divided into bloodstone, frozen stone and colored stone. The mineral composition is mainly dickite, kaolinite and cinnabar. A good bloodstone, with bright blood and essence, can echo each other. Bloodstone is divided into bright red, bright red and dark red according to the color of blood. According to the shape, it can be divided into flake red, stripe red and dot red. Generally speaking, the higher the degree of coagulation, the more concentrated the distribution, and the higher the quality of bloodstone.
Changhua bloodstone
Composition and characteristics
Bloodstone Seal "Wandering in Art" Dou Zhongliang
Changhua bloodstone is a rare stone species unique to China. Bright red as chicken blood and shiny as jade. Known as the "national treasure", it is one of the four famous stones in China. The "Zhejiang Tongzhi" edited by Qing Ganlong once recorded: "Changhua County produces Yin Zhangshi, the red dot is cinnabar, and there are also blue and purple turtle shells, which are cute to play with, but rare." Bloodstone was formed in rhyolite tuff in the Late Jurassic (about 1 100 million years ago), and was formed by Cinnabar (mercury sulfide HgS) continuously infiltrating between kaolinite (Ko) and dickite (Di). Its Mohs hardness is 2~3, its specific gravity is 2.66~2.9, and its component is AI2(Si4O 10)(OH)2. In the selection of China national stone, Changhua bloodstone has four characteristics: uniqueness-according to the investigation of China geological department and the records of geological documents of various countries, this mineral has not been found in other countries in the world at present; Strange-the shape and color are very strange and very rare; Ornamental-the shape, color, texture and texture are so beautiful that people can't give up and benefit from it; Culture-occupies a place in traditional culture, which is loved by emperors and cherished by cloth.
Geography and legend
Changhua bloodstone is produced in Yuyan Mountain, the source of the West Zhejiang Grand Canyon, 50 kilometers west of Changhua Town, Lin 'an City, Zhejiang Province, with an altitude of 1.300 meters. It belongs to Tianmu Mountain system and is the northern branch of Xianxialing. The mountains and valleys are surrounded by mountains, forming unique climatic conditions. The local folk song is: Banqiao is straight and long, and the wind and rain continue. Cover the quilt in summer, and ten In the snow floats. In the origin of bloodstone, there are many legends about bloodstone, one of which is that the phoenix killed locusts and spilled blood on Yuyan Mountain. Legend has it that in ancient times, when a pair of beautiful phoenixes were soaring in the sky, they heard sad voices from time to time. They looked down and saw locusts, plagues, crop failures and desolation everywhere, and the people were very sad. Seeing this, the kind and just Phoenix decided to eliminate the locust plague, dispel the plague and help all beings with its own strength. Through hard work, good wishes have come true. The grateful people asked Phoenix to stay and bathe in the morning songs and evening songs. Phoenix was moved by the sincerity of the people. On the top of a mountain-Kangshanling, the Phoenix Ridge was built. Soon, the rocks around Fenghuangling became white and transparent, like white jade, hence the name Yuyan Mountain. Hundreds of birds are singing in Yuyan Mountain, and people under Yuyan Mountain live and work in peace and contentment. But just then, a pair of native birds and lions came to the mountain. When they saw the phoenix nesting on such a beautiful hill and creating such brilliant achievements, they were jealous because of the kindness of the people, and they were determined to drive the phoenix away and occupy the phoenix swamp. One day, just as the mother phoenix entered the incubation period, when the male phoenix went out for food, he sneaked into the phoenix nest and attacked the mother phoenix. The mother phoenix bravely fought with it, and the battle between the phoenix and the lion made Yuyan Mountain jittery and the sun and the moon dim. When the male phoenix returned to the nest, the female phoenix was pecked off by a bird and a lion, and her blood splashed on the Yuyan Mountain. Finally, Phoenix defeated the birds and lions with its own wisdom and strength, buried the innocent trampled chicken eggs with tears and flew away. The people are deeply sorry that Phoenix has gone. They prayed to heaven and asked the gods to bless this just phoenix. The sincerity of the people and the tears of the phoenix touched the world. The Jade Emperor sent the Crown Prince down to inspect the truth, so that the Tibetan Bodhisattva turned the blood and eggs of the Phoenix into beautiful Dan stones, and endowed them with the power to attract wealth, exorcise evil spirits, promote good and punish evil. Since then, the chicken blood and eggs on Yuyan Mountain have been buried for thousands of years, and they have become today's rare treasures-bloodstone, which should have been called bloodstone. This is because later generations found that its color is similar to that of chicken blood drops just slaughtered on jade, and they used to call it "bloodstone".
Maintenance of Changhua Chicken Blood Stone
1. Bloodstone should not be exposed to the sun or placed in strong light for a long time. Because the blood color of bloodstone will darken and fade in the sun exposure and high temperature environment. Changhua soft-bottomed bloodstone
2. Waxing maintenance. Waxing can isolate the stone from the air and prevent the air from eroding the stone. The easiest way to wax is to blow the bloodstone hot with a hair dryer first, and then it will melt when the wax is scraped. Then you can wax it around the bloodstone (white candle is also acceptable), and then polish it with a soft cotton cloth or a soft towel after cooling. This can also increase the brightness of bloodstone and make it more beautiful. If you use an electric furnace for heating, you should use a smooth iron frame and keep turning to make it evenly heated; It is also necessary to control the temperature so that the wax can be removed quickly when scraped. 3. Refueling and maintenance. Refueling maintenance is the most convenient and practical, with good effect. And it will make the bloodstone look brighter and brighter. The oil can be white tea oil, rapeseed oil, etc. And baby skin care oil can be placed on the pendant, which does not affect the wearing. Oiling maintenance, one is to soak the whole bloodstone in oil, and the effect is the best. The other is to coat a layer of oil on the bloodstone, and then wrap it with plastic wrap for collection. 4. When playing, appreciating and wearing (pendants), remember: be careful and be extremely careful! Don't touch hard objects or slide down. When holding the right chapter, avoid colliding with each other to avoid damage.
The largest bloodstone in the world
A boulder in Suzhou Mingqinyuan International Emerald Jewelry City has attracted the attention of many media. The boulder is red and looks like a dragon turtle, hence the name "Dragon turtle is a relic". The owner of the boulder said that this stone comes from Longsheng County, Guilin and weighs more than 50 tons, belonging to "chicken blood jade". "Such a big bloodstone is unique not only in China, but also in the world." On 1 1, the reporter saw this interesting boulder, about 3 meters long and 1.5 meters high. From the front, it looks like a turtle with its head stretched out to greet guests, while from the side, it looks like a dinosaur and a dragon. The whole jade is mainly chicken blood red, with gold and white as foil. The whole stone is colorful and dazzling. Lu Wenzhen, the person in charge of Mingqin Garden International Jade Jewelry City, said that the unit is going to build an exhibition hall of geological museum, jewelry and jade culture in Mingqin Garden in Jiangsu. The bloodstone bought from MiuMiu Ridge, Longsheng County, Guilin City is undoubtedly the treasure of the town hall. According to its disclosure, it took more than 50 tons of chicken blood-red jasper a year and a half to reveal its true meaning. Because the overall situation is like a dragon turtle, it is named "Dragon turtle presents ruins". "We spent tens of millions on it." Lu Wenzhen said that the "Dragon Turtle Sacrifice Site" is the largest and heaviest piece of bloodstone in the world. It just arrived from Guilin and cost more than 200 thousand. It took three whole days on the road. This "Dragon and Turtle Sacrifice Site" contains auspicious meaning, so the museum will not "move" it easily. "Someone once offered 654.38 billion +0 billion and didn't sell it. If it is less than 200 million, it will not change hands. "
