What is South Red Agate?
The South Red Agate is called "Red Jade" in ancient times, and its texture is delicate and oily. It is a unique species in China, and its output is scarce. It has been exhausted during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, so the price of Laonan Red Onyx has risen sharply. The ancient red agate used medicines to nourish the mind and nourish the blood. Buddhists believe that it has special effects. The red pearl (the true pearl) in the seven treasures of Buddhism refers to the southern red agate. Today's South Red Agate has formed a three-legged position with Hetian jade and jadeite.
South Red Agate - a gem that has almost faded out of the public's sight. Since 2009, with the discovery of the high-quality South Red Agate Mine in Liangshan, Sichuan, it has regained its brilliance and returned to the collection. In the short period of three or four years, starting from big cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, South Red Agate quickly swept the north and south of China with its unstoppable momentum, not only for professional collectors, but also for ordinary collectors. An important choice for jewellery and jade players, professional investors and the general public to collect, invest and wear.
According to the latest statistics of CCTV Finance in 2014, Nanhong Agate has been popular and skyrocketing at a jaw-dropping speed. In just three or four years, the price has nearly doubled. Many early-interested collectors, players, or visionary raw material hoarders have become rich overnight. And until now, the prices of raw materials and finished products have continued to rise. In many cities, some high-end South Red agate raw materials and finished products have become "treasures" that are hard to find, even the ordinary red South agate is also very popular. The South Red Agate merchants, which have sprung up like mushrooms, have also proved the hotness of this market.
Today's South Red Agate has formed a three-legged position with Hetian jade and jadeite. So, what is South Red Agate? What kind of origins are these red gems that are loved by Chinese people? Why is the South Red Agate instead of other varieties of agate standing at an unimaginable speed?
The reporter interviewed the relevant person in charge of Guangxi Guangfei Jewelry Trading Co., Ltd. with questions. She introduced: "Because of the scarcity of the resources of South Red Agate, it has a very high collection value and appreciation space. At present, the domestic South Red Agate vein is only in Baoshan, Yunnan and Liangshan, Sichuan. Because the veins of Baoshan, Yunnan are affected by its geography. Due to the location, the Yunnan provincial government has clearly forbidden mining; the property rights of many veins in Liangshan, Sichuan have not been effectively disposed of. The current mining of mineral materials is very difficult, the output is extremely low, and the high-quality rough is rare."
The Chinese people's admiration and love for red also promoted the popularity of Nanhong. Since ancient times, the red color in China has been celebrated and auspicious, while the South Red Agate from Jinhong to Persimmon Red to Cherry Red has precisely met the Chinese people's preferences. Furthermore, South Red Agate is the warmest of all agates. The South Red Agate reflects a thick and moist beauty, "modest and gentleman, gentle as jade", this gentle, fully in line with the Chinese literati's requirements for jade. It is precisely because these three points are concentrated in the South Red Agate that it has created the legend of South Red Agate.
