These three kinds of "non-mainstream" Nanhong have occupied the market, and their value has soared dozens of times a year. Don’t you know?
China is a country of jade, and jade culture runs through almost the whole history of civilization in China, among which Hetian jade is the most concerned. “One red, two yellow and three sheep fat"It is a description of the color of Hetian jade. Topaz and suet jade are rare, but they can also be seen. Only ruby is hard to find.

△ Redjade Works
The appearance of Nanhong satisfies people’s pursuit of natural red jade, which is eye-catching but not losing its calm and heavy color and delicate and moist texture, which makes many jade lovers intoxicated.

Over time, Nanhong also had "Take red as your priority.But recently, three kinds of "not red" Nanhong have begun to emerge in the jewelry industry, and they are more and more loved by everyone, and even form a tripartite confrontation with Jinhong and Persimmon Red. Do treasure fans know which three kinds?
1. Red and white materials

Red and white materials, as the name implies, areOn the same piece of material, there are two contrasting colors: red and white.. High-quality red and white materials, red should be pure and bright persimmon red, and white should be milky white with strong glue texture (giving people a feeling like milk).Red and white intersect but don’t merge, and the boundaries are clear., with a unique sense of hierarchy.

Of course, the beauty of red and white materials is beautiful, but it makes it popular. Sister Bao thinks it is the result of being favored by sculptors. The two contrasting colors will inspire the sculptor, and often create stunning works with pretty colors (suitable for carving flowers, birds or figures), thus enhancing its artistic value, becoming the first choice for collection, and gradually bringing red and white materials into public view.

△ Also suitable for making seals, exquisite and lovely.
Of course, at the current price, red and white materials are still not as good as red and south red, but its market popularity is increasing day by day, and it is possible to keep pace with it in the future ~ but it should be noted that all the materials with room for appreciation are high-quality red and white materials! Those materials that are not bright enough in color, have blurred layers, have no sharp contrast between red and white, and have many impurities … are not included here.

If treasure fans are interested, when they go shopping, they may encounter red and white materials whose white parts are light pink and pink. They are slightly lower in value, but they are very beautiful and can be bought:

△ white powdery
In addition, you will encounter a material with a flame pattern in the red part. What is a "flame pattern"? In fact, there are all kinds of red interwoven and flame-like textures on the south red.It is unique to Sichuan materials, but not to Baoshan materials.~ remember this! The flame pattern will make Nanhong have a dynamic aesthetic feeling, which is very unique.

△ flame pattern, feel it.
Finally, in a broad sense, there is a kind of "silk-wrapped south red" which also belongs to red and white materials. It’s just that the red and white layers are dense, and from the side, it can form a silk thread with white and red intertwined (a bit like pork belly). At present, the market’s recognition of silk-wrapped Nanhong is average, but as long as the quality is excellent, there will always be a time to shine, such as a 3.8 million silk-wrapped Nanhong Suzaku Niu Baoxi:

2. The ice is floating in the south.

If red and white materials are popular because of the promotion of sculptors, thenThe popularity of ice floating south red depends entirely on its own face value.Yes! Three or four years ago, it was estimated that few people had heard of it, which was the lowest grade. You could buy a palm-sized material for twenty or thirty dollars … But now, its price has doubled! I can’t help but let Bao Jie sigh: this world of looking at faces ~

△ Master’s work "The Wind and Cloud" has the feeling of planting jade in ice.
Ice floating south red is not as red and festive as pure color south red. It is mainly white, with red as an ornament. White is like crystal and red is like chicken blood (also known as "ice floating chicken blood", but the name is really ugly), and red and white intersect and set each other off, which makes it unique and delicate, making people forget the customs.

High-quality ice floats south and red,The white part must be pure.It is as transparent as thin ice, but it has a strong glue texture and looks indistinct to the naked eye;The red part must be bright.In sharp contrast to the white part:

The low-grade ice floats south red, and the purity and permeability of the white part are poor, which makes it look fuzzy to the naked eye, but also faintly gray and not transparent; The red part is scattered irregularly on the whole piece of jewelry, without a sense of picture and beauty;

△ Low purity, too little red and too messy.
Although the white part of the ice floats in the south red, strictly speaking, the little red floating is the key factor that affects the value. Everyone uses this reddish form to price the ice floating in the south red.

In addition, there is a special species in the ice floating south red-grass flower south red! It is a natural pattern, which is not only pleasing to the eye, but also unique and unique. It combines the characteristics of jade and strange stones, which is very magical and rare, and attracts a lot of attention for the ice floating south.

Although there are varieties of grass flowers in other jade, such as Huang Longyu, Brazil agate, etc., their "grass flowers" are generally black, which is not as beautiful as the red grass flowers floating in the south with ice ~
3. Lychee jelly

Sister Bao has been crazy about litchi jelly recently, because it is so beautiful and lovely ~ The quality of texture is an important indicator to evaluate the value of Nanhong. The description of beautiful jade in Yu Ji is: the body is as coagulated as fat, the clothes are restrained, the quality is thick and moist, and the pulse is firm and dense … Sister Bao thinks these words are just to describe litchi jelly!

Litchi jelly grows like a litchi, moist and crystal clear. It is produced in Liangshan, Sichuan, and Baoshan, Yunnan, and as a Baoshan material, it has a fluorescent effect, and there are few cracks, which can be said to be very rare. More importantly, in the Nanhong market, where the baking color is optimized and rampant,Litchi jelly is basically without glue and optimization.Beautiful and jade-like, the future value is still worth looking forward to ~

Now Nanhong minerals are scarce. In the market, good goods are rare, and the prices of fine products are soaring, even to the point where the price is determined by grams. Instead of spending all your money to buy materials full of color and meat, it is better to pay attention to the "non-mainstream" south reds such as litchi jelly, red and white materials and ice floating south reds. Perhaps they are the swift horses waiting for Bole.
Bao Jie si Yu
It is estimated that some treasure fans can’t tell the difference between ice floating south red and litchi frozen. In fact, at first glance, it is a bit like it, but it can be distinguished by careful observation.
Observing the white parts of the two, the permeability of ice floating south red is very good, as crystal clear as crystal; Litchi jelly, on the other hand, is foggy, has a rubbery luster and is not permeable to water.
