What is the material of the Dragon Chair in the Palace Museum? Many people are curious about this. After all, that chair was once used by the most prestigious person in the world. In addition, the chair itself looks like Jin Shanshan's, so many people think that its own value is high, not just what it symbolizes. Many people think that this chair is made of pure gold, but this statement is wrong. This is just the appearance of it. In fact, this dragon chair in the golden throne hall looks like Jin Shanshan's, but its gold is only a superficial layer. Adopt gold plating process. However, although this chair is not made of pure gold, its value is not low, because even if it is actually made of wood, the wood it can use is very expensive, and it is made of golden nanmu and golden nanmu. Although its own value is not as valuable as gold, it is also very expensive. In this way, even if people are not made of pure gold, their prices are actually not much lower than those made of pure gold. There is actually another saying about why this chair is not made of pure gold. First of all, if the whole chair is made of pure gold, it needs a lot of gold, and at this time in ancient times, the state treasury was limited. It would be a bit extravagant to build directly with gold, and the emperor would naturally not leave such a bad image in the hearts of the people, so he chose to use gold nanmu as the main body and then plated a layer of gold on the surface. In addition to gold, there are many carvings on this chair, such as the most obvious dragon carving pattern. Every dragon on this chair is inlaid with precious stones, which adds some value. So even if this chair is not pure, it is expensive. And it is a national treasure in itself, priceless.
