Chapter 358: Demantoid Garnet
In the end, Wang Chong and the two were taken away by the police, and the market owners spontaneously applauded.
Obviously, the more messages a player misses, the better the market will be for them. But after opening for so long, I haven't heard much about the leakage of information.
You can guess that maybe there is, but they were secretly eaten by those two guys.
In the outside world, what do antique lovers think? They will think that they can't sell goods here, there are no real goods, and the impact on business will be great.
And the shopkeeper who sold the box to Xu Qing hyped up that there was a Qing Dynasty container in his store, worth more than 200,000 yuan, and he had picked up a big leak.
Yes, they're all human spirits.
At this time, don't forget to advertise your store. Not to mention, it really attracted a lot of customers.
Hu Yang and his entourage have become the focus, especially Xu Qing, after all, he picked up the leak and sent the two experts to the police station. Let's not talk about this mother-in-law's luck and treasure appreciation ability, anyway, it's quite ruthless.
"Hmm, why didn't they keep up?" Zhang Qingliang suddenly found that the two girls beside him were gone.
When they looked back, they saw Fang Ru and Lin Shaofen picking in a shop behind them. Woman, sure enough, she has no immunity to shiny things.
I saw that they were picking out something similar to gemstones, mostly pale green.
Next to it, there is a card that reads: Fifty yuan to pick and choose.
Helplessly, they had no choice but to go back. Just now, he was only talking to Xu Qing and didn't pay attention to his surroundings, so Hu Yang didn't pay attention to the shops he passed by.
"It's kind of like an emerald of the ice species. Andy couldn't help but comment.
He has been in contact with Brother Hu a lot of jadeite, so his eyesight has gradually improved.
However, Xu Qing told him: "This is not jadeite, it is prehnite, but some people do use it to pass it off as ice jade." ”
Prehnite is named because there are raised color blocks on the stone surface, shaped like grapes. The color of prehnite is dark green, yellow-green to colorless, and even high-quality prehnite will produce a "fluorescence" similar to glass jadeite, which is very beautiful and very ornamental.
The color of prehnite is mainly green, while predominantly yellow prehnite is relatively rare, and yellow usually has a gray tone, like the bright golden yellow that people like is extremely rare and very collectible.
In recent years, there has been a whirlwind of investment in colored gemstones in the market, and the beauty and rarity of prehnite itself is one of the reasons why prehnite is the object of pursuit.
Prehnite is a kind of overseas semi-precious stone, not many people know it, but I believe that "ice jadeite" is more familiar to everyone. Because the color of prehnite is pale green and luminous, some merchants use it to pass off as ice jadeite.
However, the quality of these in front of me is not very good, and the particles are not large.
Otherwise, fifty yuan a piece is impossible.
Hu Yang pointed: "That yellow is good." ”
As soon as the words fell, Fang Ru took it into his hand, and looked at the light for a while, flashing with a beautiful light, and the particles of this one are quite large, it can be made into a pendant, she likes it very much.
Seeing the two girls picking, even Xu Qing couldn't help it, and she also picked one carefully, planning to make a ring face.
After settling the account and leaving the shop, Fang Ru was still looking at the prehnite that Hu Yang pointed out to her.
Xu Qing was surprised: "This one seems to be a little different." ”
"Of course it's different, yellow. ”
"I'm not talking about the color, prehnite is mostly green, yellow is rare, and golden is even more precious. However, this one doesn't seem to be prehnite. Xu Qing voiced her doubts.
Except for Populus euphratica, the others were slightly surprised, it's not prehnite? Fake? This is what Brother Hu pointed out!
Still, they were wrong.
Hu Yang said with a smile: "Sister Qing has a good eye, this is indeed not prehnite, but the demantoid garnet in garnet." ”
Xu Qing stared at her for a while, and finally said with a little envy: "I said, why doesn't it look like a prehnite." ”
Again, prehnite again, garnet again. How many kinds of gems are there? And it's named after the fruit. The audience in the live broadcast room is also speechless, a little messy!
"Are garnets precious?" Fang Ru couldn't help but ask.
Xu Qing told her: "Prehnite can only be said to be semi-precious stones, and garnet is included in the ranks of gemstones, especially the demantoid garnet in garnet."
Ordinary garnet, calculated by grams, hundreds of pieces of one gram, plus gold, even one or two times higher.
Demantoid garnet is different, it can keep up with the international gemstone calculation standards, calculated according to carats, thousands of pieces per carat. The one in your hand must be tens of thousands of yuan. ”
The evaluation and purchase of garnet is based on color, transparency, and particle size.
In general, the value of garnets decreases depending on the color from green, orange-yellow, red to dark red.
Standard requirements for gem-quality garnets: good transparency, bright color, and particle size greater than 5 mm. Emerald green demantoid garnets are very popular in the international gemstone market, and the pure, immaculate, colorful, and crystal clear demantoid garnet is highly valued.
Hearing this, Fang Ru was excited, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it.
Sure enough, I still have to be guided by Brother Hu.
Populus euphratica said to everyone: "Although prehnite is a semi-precious stone, the price of good quality prehnite is not low. For example, the golden-colored prehnite you mentioned, if it is not cracked, it can be sold for tens of thousands of yuan in one carat. ”
After speaking, he said to Fang Ru again: "Your demantoid garnet, the quality is not too good. Really good quality demantoid garnet, the price can even be compared with emerald. ”
The National Museum of Natural History is home to one of the world's finest brownish-yellow transparent demantoids, an intricately carved 61.5-carat head of Christ, which is a priceless treasure.
But even so, Fang Ru was still very happy.
The group walked around the market and found no treasures that were particularly worth buying.
Of course, it's not that there are no treasures, some antique shops, millions or tens of millions of treasures in town stores, but are you interested in buying?
Even if they are interested, except for Populus euphratica, no one else can afford to consume.
After coming out, everyone realized that more than two hours had passed, and they didn't feel the passage of time at all!
"What's your plan for what's next? I'm going back. Xu Qing asked.
Hu Yang looked at Zhang Qingliang, and when he went outside, Hu Yang had always been based on the advice of the locals.
Zhang Qingliang and Fang Ru didn't want to go back much, and before it got dark, they wanted to continue to wander around to see if they had any luck and make a little more.
"Let's take a look around the neighborhood again!"
Xu Qing gave Hu Yang her contact information: "Okay, write down my phone number! I'll invite everyone to dinner tomorrow." ”
