Speaking of corals, everyone will not be unfamiliar. They were originally a strange creature in the depths of the ocean. But when it comes to coral gems, ordinary consumers may be a little surprised. How can corals become jewellery?
[Deep sea coral is extremely precious]
Liu Lin, general manager of Shenzhen Tianya Runshi Coral: There are two main types of coral, shallow sea coral and deep sea coral. The shallow sea coral is the Great Barrier Reef. This coral, which is easily visible to the naked eye, is called the shallow sea coral. This coral plays a role in environmental protection and seawater regulation. This coral is forbidden to be strictly prohibited. Red coral is a deep-sea coral or gem coral. The coral is 200-2000 meters under the sea. The growth pressure is very strong, so the deep-sea coral is very fine and even, and the coral with high hardness can be made into jewelry. Shallow sea corals cannot be made into jewelry.
Deep sea corals require a temperature of around 20 degrees Celsius and can only grow near the volcano. The main producing areas are in Taiwan, Japan and the Mediterranean Sea. Due to the extremely harsh requirements of the living environment, it grows very slowly and cannot be farmed. Deep-sea corals, 20 years old and 1 inch, grow 1 kilogram in 300 years, extremely rare, the saying "Millennium Coral Red."
Liu Lin: Things are rare, this is the best summary of corals. Corals are very rare. We say that the current exploitation of corals is limited. It is not allowed to mine corals. Japan, Taiwan and Italy are restricting mining. It is allowed to mine a certain amount, the stock is very small, the second coral culture is so deep, and the attributes are so strong. These factors are gathered together, which determines that the coral can not be precious.
In ancient China, red coral was regarded as a happy thing of auspiciousness, representing nobleness and power. According to the Qing Dynasty costumes, only two or more officials can use corals; when worshipping, they must wear coral beads. The ancient Romans used red coral for decoration, and the Japanese emperor also regarded red coral as its quintessence.
Zhang Yufeng, the guide of the exhibition hall: Many jewels have light, and the coral luster is rich and heavy, and there is a certain amount of experience to appreciate. I have accepted a customer before, want to buy a daughter to marry, his daughter is a professor, this profession is very special, his mother thinks that the general jewelry is not suitable, too radiant, and China is subtle, so choose to choose the most coral Suitable for teaching, the coral is unique, the beauty is subtle and low-key, so I chose a coral necklace and bracelet.
[Cao has gradually become an investment hot spot in recent years]
The color of the red coral is gratifying, the texture is radiant, and it is listed as one of the three organic gems together with pearls and amber. It is also listed as one of the seven treasures of Buddhism. In the past, coral gems may have been less popular. As cross-strait trade deepened, Taiwan promoted coral culture, and red coral gradually entered the domestic market. Liu Lin, who entered the coral market three years ago, said that the promotion of coral in the mainland has been nearly two or three years. Although the time is short, it has quickly become popular among people, and coral has gradually become a hot spot for investment collection.
Liu Lin: The first is that the Buddhist series is more popular. Many people with faith like to bring artifacts. In addition, many people have other related artifacts that will be accompanied by coral beads and will be accompanied by corals. There are also collections, carved pieces, coral trees, which are very popular for people with investment needs. Buying a coral back is very different from other collectibles because corals are alive and alive. The second is that corals are very expensive, and some consumers value his value. The Yangtze River Delta is popular with coral beads, very pure and very beautiful, very distinguished. There are also entry-level ones, many people like corals, but at a high price, he buys some entry-level products. Entry-level is not expensive, no more than 5,000, is one or two thousand, four or five thousand, such products sell very well.
[coral level]
Coral grades can be divided into six categories, namely Aka grade, Sardine grade, touch grade, etc. Aka grade corals range from a few thousand yuan to tens of thousands of yuan per gram.
Liu Lin: The market price is different according to the type. The quality is slightly worse than tens of dollars, one gram, the more expensive two or three thousand one gram, the best tens of thousands of one gram.
Zhang Yufeng: This is a peacock brooch. This is a ring. It is made of Aka coral. It is red coral. In Japanese, red is Aka, so it is Aka coral. This is mainly in the vicinity of Kaohsiung in the Taiwan Strait. It grows in the deep sea 110. Between -360 meters, the texture is particularly tight, almost no texture of the coral surface, the luster is glassy, ​​and the other corals are waxy. The color is dark red. Look at this is a very deep color. It is bovine blood red. The cow blood red is the highest grade and the price is the most expensive. Submarines are required to salvage the entire coral and are costly. 70% of salvage is waste, only 30% can be used for jewelry processing, and 70% of this 30% is only general, only 25% as first class, 5% is the best, special. It grows slowly, the cost of salvage is high, and the quality is precious, so it is very expensive. This price is 1.44 million yuan, so the price is particularly high, this is the essence of coral.
There are many types of corals, including red corals, pink corals, white corals, black corals, etc. Among them, red blood coral is the most precious, and it is the highest grade gem coral on the market. In addition to color, size and engraving are important criteria for purchasing corals.
The exhibition guide Chen Culin: These two beads are different in size, which is one of the basis for identifying value, as well as the uniformity of the entire color, which affects his value from the differences in color gradation at each stage. Men's beading should be 8-10 or more, 10 is a little more. Look at this carefully, the color of the beads and the enamel, the beads are relatively large, the light is stronger, and the uniformity of color is higher. Look closely, the micropores are second, the density is fine, the second is the size, the beads are better, and the beads are less valuable. There are also weights, beading is calculated by grams.
[How to identify the authenticity of corals]
There are more and more people who like corals. In the hot market, some fake corals are quietly appearing. For example, using dyed plastics, sea bamboo, etc., to fake the real; with white coral dyed as a red coral, shoddy and so on. So how should ordinary consumers identify the authenticity of corals?
The supervision department supervises Chen Si: The daily selection can be identified as follows: The first is to look at the color, this is the Aka red coral, the color is the kind of big red, blood red, commonly known as cow blood red, the color is very uniform and natural, looking comfortable. If the color is dyed, it is more dull and not natural. On the cross-cut surface, the natural red coral is evenly red from the inside to the outside. The stained surface is different, the surface is relatively dark, and the inside is white and has a gradual change. There is a white heart inside, which is the characteristic of Aka, which is different from the characteristics of fakes. Aka red corals have white hearts and white spots, as well as wormholes, which are the footprints of coral growth, which is one of the basis for identification.
Lord: Is the wormhole really seeing the wormhole?
Supervisor: No, some fakes can be made into insect eyes. If dyed, there will be dye accumulation in the insect eyes. The color will be very dark. The color is lighter and the color is uneven. The natural red coral color is uniform.
In the daily wearing process of red coral, people often encounter the situation that the color and luster of the coral become dim, and thus the coral is considered to be fake. In fact, this is to remind us to pay attention to maintenance, try to avoid contact with cosmetics, perfume, etc., wear it with a soft cloth after each use, and always soak in the water, the only way to ensure that the coral jewelry is always bright and beautiful.
