Zhao Hanyan smiled evilly and said: "You are a small leaf of red sandalwood, so you don't have to be afraid of being embarrassed, although there are no characteristics, and there are more dense brown eyes, but if you remove the Buddha's head, it is not a Buddha bead." ”

"Of course, I know that there is a specific number of Buddha beads, and I don't believe in Buddhism, so I removed one so that it can be used as a pure ornament." Han Xing said.

Han Peacock looked at it, the bead material is not very good, it can only belong to the ordinary level, and there are black tendons on it, which is probably the main reason why Han Xing is reluctant to take it out.

Just now, he laughed at Zhao Hanyan because of this, so he himself was eye-catching, so he naturally didn't want to be exposed in front of Han Peacock's eyes.

Han Peacock didn't say anything, but just said about this string of Buddhist beads: "It's not a big problem with red sandalwood, haven't you found anything?" Look at the beads I just carved? Isn't it a bit similar to this string of Buddhist beads? ”

Seeing them nodding, Han Peacock continued: "This is because their materials are almost the same, they are all materials close to the roots and close to the periphery of the growth rings, this is the so-called root material sapwood, which belongs to the general material, the advantage is that the density is okay, and the disadvantage is that the brown eyes are more obvious, the oiliness is lower, and the black tendons are slightly more."

This is not the main problem, even if this string of Buddhist beads is compared with my beads, it is also inferior, as long as you are careful, you can see that this Buddha beads are oval, not too round, what is the reason for this? Certainly not because of the engraver. ”

Han Peacock looked at the two of them and shook his head, and could only say helplessly: "These things must be recorded in the book." As long as you put your mind to it, you can know the common sense of the way, the reason why this bead will become oval is because this material has not gone through a natural drying or drying process before making it.

The wood is not dry in the shade, and it is still wet when making beads, so after the beads come out, due to internal tension, they are drawn into an oval shape. This one is irreversible. There's no way to change it, of course, it doesn't matter if it's not round, anyway, you don't use it as a Buddhist bead.

Also, if you buy Buddhist beads. It is not necessary to be entangled in the rules of Buddhism. Although the Buddhist scriptures require that the beads used for recitation need to be regulated. For example, 13+1, or 18+1, 108+1, etc.

But it's not too important, if not for this regulation. Isn't it convenient to recite? Isn't that a rosary or a Buddhist bead?

Buddhism is a very tolerant religion, as long as there is a heart to the Buddha, casually use weeds and flowers to weave a small wreath, it can also be held to chant the Buddha, and, the bracelet does not have to be the Buddha beads, modern society, the bracelet is more of a pure ornament, there is no need to follow the Buddhist regulations. ”

Han Xing was a little frustrated: "I have long known that there is a problem with Lu Dao, but I didn't expect the problem to be so big and so much." ”

Just now I only thought about the black tendons, but I didn't find that this string of Buddhist beads is actually made of root wood or sapwood, and what is even more speechless is that the wood has not been dried in the shade when it is made.

Zhao Hanyan is more deeply insightd: "It's really taught, and now I understand what our professor said, no matter how much you learn from books, it's better to go out and take a look at it yourself, it's the same string of beads, but each string is different." ”

Han Peacock said: "Books still need to be read more, but after reading books, you have to learn and use them lively, and you have to work hard, don't you see these characteristics that I see?"

Han Xing's previous string of beads, he also said that the color is very good-looking, why is it good-looking, as long as you think about it carefully, you will know that it is because it is a new product.

There are also black tendons, the new small leaf red sandalwood bracelet, the color is red, it is unlikely to appear dark purple, the color of the old red sandalwood, so when you see the black tendon, don't think that you have missed it, you have met the old small leaf red sandalwood bracelet, if you really think so, it is even more embarrassing. ”

As soon as Han Peacock said this, Han Xing and Zhao Hanyan's faces immediately flushed, and they seemed to think so.

You must know that the old material of the small leaf red sandalwood bracelet, and the current new material small leaf red sandalwood bracelet, but it is completely two prices, and they have never heard of any black tendons, of course, they have never seen it.

They only know more than ordinary people some information about the small-leaved red sandalwood, and they can identify what material is the small-leaved red sandalwood, but if they really let them analyze and identify what kind of small-leaved red sandalwood is a good material, they will be blind.

Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Han Peacock knew that he had guessed correctly, so he said: "Pay attention everywhere and learn, as long as you are serious, you will not make such a mistake, make bold assumptions, and be careful to verify."

This point is not only useful in the identification of small leaf red sandalwood, such an attitude towards the world, in the entire identification industry, is a golden gem, and also, to hold a skeptical heart, look at every work of art.

If you want to go further in the appraisal industry, you have to change your mentality, you can't be like ordinary people, holding Taobao to pick up leaks, encounter something, only see its advantages.

But all fakes, naturally, the more similar they are, the better, the more real the better, so you can always find advantages in those fakes, because people are imitating these advantages.

The more high-imitation things, the more advantages they have, but no matter how many advantages you find, it is not the essence of identification, identification, is to let us find shortcomings.

Even if there are ninety-nine advantages in this thing, as long as there is one thing wrong with it, even if it is not a mistake, as long as there is such a trace of uncertainty, you have to be careful to verify it.

You can ignore all its merits, just find a mistake in it, no matter how good it is, as long as there is one thing that is definitely wrong, it is a fake, as long as you understand it, you can do it, you are unlikely to be eye-catching. ”

Han Xing sighed and said: "I know the Dao, ordinary people just learned some identification knowledge, and they will go to the street to pick up the leaks, because they know what kind of characteristics of the Dao are in line with the characteristics of the real thing."

All they see is what the book says the real thing is, so they all go for the real thing, so when they see an item that matches the record of the real thing in the book, they think it might be a real thing.

If they can find a few more advantages, they may think that this is the real thing, and if they find that the price is not too high, they will only have one mind to pick up the leaks. ”

"Yes, that's why there are so many fakes in the antique shop, and they can still be sold non-stop." Han Peacock smiled.

Han Xing's face was already sweating: "I have been shopping in the antique street recently, and I really have this idea, I have seen a lot of high imitations, all of them seem to be real, fortunately, my eldest brother once told me that those are high imitations, otherwise, I would probably buy them." ”

"Rather buy fake like the real thing, don't buy the real like the fake, this is not only saying that the fake is cheap, but also a mentality, from the fake to choose the real thing, and from the real product to choose the fake, the result will be completely different, everything as a fake to buy how not to suffer."

Zhao Hanyan said: "What the boss means is that when we do appraisal, we must have the mentality of doubting everything, no matter what it is, we only look for shortcomings, and don't care about the advantages, as long as we can't find a shortcoming, the probability that this thing is real is very high?" ”

"Yes, that's what it means, but you have to be confident that as long as there are shortcomings, you can find them, and if you don't have a little skill, anything, you can't find the shortcomings.

Therefore, it is still very beneficial to read more books, just like Han Xing, he does not read a lot of books and writes down a lot of things, but his mentality is not right.

If you use the mentality I just said to re-evaluate the bracelets you bought, you may find the shortcomings I just mentioned, and in this way, you will still spend a high price to buy these bracelets that look like shortcomings? Han Peacock continued to educate the two of them.

"Big brother, how much is this string of Buddhist beads worth?" Han Xing asked wryly.

Han Peacock said: "As for the price, due to the large size, it is okay to pay around 500 yuan." ”

Han Xing was speechless, and Zhao Hanyan almost laughed, it was bought by Han Xing for 20,000 rupees, converted into RMB, it was almost 2,000, and now it is only worth 500, and Han Xing lost a lot more than himself.

Seeing Zhao Hanyan's appearance, Han Xing's face was almost green, but since he was already embarrassed, it was better to learn a little more: "Big brother, how can I buy a good Xiaoye red sandalwood bracelet?" What is the best way to play when you buy it? ”

"Let's just say that your string of new goods, the color is bright, it means that the beads have just been made for a short time, and they have not been oxidized, and the color will be dark after a period of natural oxidation, and this plate is very good.

It doesn't matter if there is a star or not, the important thing is the density, the diameter of 2.0, about 60 grams is considered a general product, about 65 grams is considered a fine product, and about 70 grams is considered a superb.

But it also depends on how the workmanship is, whether it is the same material, along the lines, small holes, whether it has been repaired, whether there are cracks, and then it depends on the texture, how the fluorescence is, and the place with the most problems in the bracelet is generally the Buddha's head tee, which should be paid special attention to.

In addition, if you want to talk about playing, when you just play, don't rush to get started, it is best to bring cotton gloves for about a month, and plate for 1-2 hours a day.

Then let the beads oxidize naturally for one to two weeks, and then play with gloves for a week, you can basically get started, and then it depends on what you like, you can also go directly to the hand plate, or you can wear gloves.

It is worth noting that not only the surface of the plate, but also the perforation must be disced, otherwise the slurry is inconsistent, it is ugly, the purpose of this is to make the surface of the beads have a shallow layer of slurry, even if it is stained with oil and sweat and the like, as long as you wipe it with a cotton cloth to restore the original state. ”

"Khan, I didn't expect to buy a small leaf red sandalwood bracelet, it was so troublesome, not to mention the density and workmanship, but also to be firm whether it was made of the same piece of material, but also to see if the small holes along the grain, but also to pay attention to whether it has been repaired, whether there are cracks, whether the lines and fluorescence are normal, these original we don't know the way, this is not to be pitted, it is strange." Han Xing is almost sweating to death. (To be continued......)
