Chapter 119: It's better to come early than to come at a good time
As soon as the two necklaces were in her hands, Gu Ming carefully held the necklaces in her palm.
The necklace that happened to be placed on her left hand did not have the slightest heat at first, but when Gu Ming's fingers touched the surface of the ruby, there was a certain amount of heat, but this heat was very limited, and it did not make her feel hot.
Gu Ming felt a little strange, so she touched the ruby carefully and found that in addition to the heat on the crown and bottom of the ruby, the middle part was not hot at all. Not only that, but the gemstones are not set with real gold, but with gold plating, so the necklace is obviously a fake.
This method of counterfeiting is a common method of counterfeiting gemstones, commonly known as semi-true double-layered stones, the crown of semi-true double-layered stones is composed of real natural rubies, and the pavilions are often synthesized rubies by flame melting method, or there are also red off-duty substitutes.
If you want to be firm about this kind of fake gemstone, generally speaking, you need to be assisted by instruments, if it weren't for Gu Ming's left hand being able to feel the heat emitted by the antique, it might not be able to really distinguish it.
Gu Ming made a judgment in his heart, so he pretended to look at the necklace carefully, and put the other one in his left hand.
This time, it was no surprise that the heat of the left hand was clearly transmitted, and the hottest place was the surface of the ruby.
Similarly, when she touched the real "Queen of Roses", Gu Ming's heart was full of joy, probably because of the ruby in her hand, which represented enthusiasm, after these joys, Gu Ming also seemed to sense the enthusiasm emitted by the ruby, and the singing of the European court faintly came from the bottom of her heart.
Gu Ming guessed that this "Queen of Roses" was mostly worn by European court ladies before, and over time it was integrated. In that atmosphere. It's just that the gem that will make her faintly hear the singing voice is really the first time she has met it.
In order to be afraid that there would be any mistakes, Gu Ming carefully stroked the necklace on her left hand according to the method of observing the previous necklace, and found that this gemstone was absolutely no problem, no matter where she touched it, there was a hot heat in her hands.
Gu Ming remembered that the "Queen of Roses" had been repaired by Uncle Huang, and there must be a difference in the place where it was inlaid or the chain, so she carefully stroked the base of the necklace and the chain, trying to find something different.
Sure enough, at the base of the inlaid gemstones, Gu Ming touched a different place. There is heat all around, and there is a small place in it that has not come to any place, it seems that this is the place that has been repaired by Uncle Huang.
Although she already has the answer in her heart, it can't help but make others think that her identification is too hasty, and Gu Ming can't stop her movements now.
Besides. She didn't know how many of these best rubies she could see in her life, let alone touch them so closely. She couldn't change it to take a good look, otherwise she would have wasted this God-given opportunity.
She is a professional in appraising antiques, although antique jewelry is also a kind of antique, but it pays more attention to the value of the gemstone itself in addition to the style. Gu Ming is not very clear about the identification of rubies.
An ordinary gemstone necklace that has been preserved for 300 years is definitely not as good as a finest gemstone necklace that has just been cut. Unless that necklace that has been preserved with 300 ordinary gemstones has special historical and cultural significance.
Generally speaking, natural gemstones are "ten red and nine cracked", and natural rubies without a single flaw or crack are extremely rare. Artificial rubies, on the other hand, have the same color, have few internal defects or crystalline inclusions, are clean, and have large blocks.
If you want to make a more delicate identification, you will undoubtedly need the help of sophisticated instruments in order to observe the internal structure of the gem more carefully, but now that time is pressing, and there are no instruments around that Gu Ming can use, she can only identify it from some simple methods that she knows.
Of all the red rubies, the most valuable is the most intense color. It is known as the "pigeon's blood" gemstone and is very valuable. This vivid and intense color, which can almost be called a deep red, reveals the true face of the ruby.
It's just a pity that most rubies are pale in color. And with a pink feel and therefore rubies with a pigeon's blood hue. More valuable.
And because of the strong vitality and intense color of the ruby, it was previously believed to be the embodiment of a dead bird, and a fervent fantasy was developed about it. Natural rubies are scarce in non-producing areas, and high-quality rubies are only found in Myanmar, and the production is gradually decreasing, and now it can be said that it is almost in decline, and the large stones no longer appear.
The "Queen of Roses" in Gu Ming's hands is not only large, with good transparency, exquisite and perfect cutting technology, but also its color, which is the most valuable "pigeon's blood" ruby among rubies.
Holding the real "Queen of Roses" in your hand and observing it at a certain angle, you can clearly see with the naked eye that there are many filaments on the surface of the ruby, which is an important sign of a real gemstone.
On the contrary, inclusions can also appear in artificial red and sapphire, and its inclusions are not various minerals, but bubbles, and the appearance of bubbles is usually irregular, dense and grouped, and can also appear in arcs.
"Sir, Mr. Al has forced his way in." Just when Gu Ming was still observing the 'Queen of Roses', the bodyguard who had been sent by Robert to stop her ran back again.
As soon as he finished saying this, a foreign man who was also very tall rushed outside, and he was followed by several other people.
Seeing this, Gu Ming dared to delay more, so without saying a word, he stuffed the real "Queen of Roses" into Robert's hand, and stuffed the fake necklace into Tang Ming's hand next to him.
Tang Ming was also obedient, and after receiving the necklace, he didn't say anything, but just carefully put it away.
Robert glanced at Gu Ming, and also held the "Queen of Roses" tightly in his hand.
That Mr. Al moved quickly, and after a while, he walked in front of Robert, didn't look at the person next to him, and said directly to Robert with a slightly arrogant face: "Robert, I heard the news here on the way here, didn't you let people check it carefully before, how could there be a bomb?" These explosion-proof experts behind me are the explosion-proof experts that I immediately invited, how is the 'Queen of Roses' now? ”
Robert glanced at the so-called explosion-proof experts and said unhurriedly: "The 'Rose Queen' is good. ”
"There was so much chaos just now, and the 'Rose Queen' really didn't suffer any damage?" Al looked at Robert in disbelief, and continued: "You know, I came this time to be responsible for bringing the 'Rose Queen' back intact, and it just so happens that I have a friend who is proficient in gem identification, so let him check the 'Rose Queen' first." ”
Sure enough, it was not good that even the person who identified the gems brought it.
Robert heard the other party's almost rude questioning, and a trace of anger appeared on his face, "Mr. Al, please pay attention to the way you speak, don't you think you appear too coincidentally?" Explosion protection expert, friend of gem identification. ”
"Robert, do you know what you mean by that?" Al said with an unkind face.
Robert snorted coldly and did not answer.
"The 'Queen of Roses' is a family treasure, and I have the right to do so for the sake of its safety." Al looked at Robert reluctantly, looking like he had to check it immediately.
Robert seemed to inadvertently sweep the corner of his eyes over Gu Ming, and found that Gu Ming was nodding slightly at him.
"Robert......" Alla said in a long voice, "you are so reluctant to take out the 'Queen of Roses', is there something wrong with this?" ”
"Since you want to check, let's go out and say that it's not safe here. I don't think you have forgotten that there are bombs here! Moreover, even if you want to check the 'Rose Queen', it's not a little bit of time, you are in such a hurry......" Robert smiled coldly and looked directly at Al.
Alye sneered at Robert, then turned sideways slightly, motioned for Robert to go out with him, and agreed with Robert's statement.
The bodyguards who happened to pack up the exhibits also packed up the exhibits, and the group prepared to leave the exhibition hall.
Gu Ming and Qin Sheng naturally left together, and when they were about to walk out of the exhibition hall, Gu Ming found that several people hurriedly ran in from outside, and then went straight towards the display cabinet where the golden jade clothes were placed, apparently preparing to transfer the golden jade clothes.
This surprised Gu Ming, just now her attention was on the Queen of Roses, and she couldn't have imagined that the priceless golden jade clothes had not been transferred out at this time, and the other exhibits had already been transferred.
With this doubt, Gu Ming finally followed everyone out of the exhibition hall smoothly.
After a while, the police/inspector of the relevant parties came, and the efficiency of the people's public servants was quite good, and after they came, they immediately sealed off the scene, and expressed a little dissatisfaction with the explosion-proof experts invited by Mr. Al without authorization, but they did not pursue too much consideration when they saw that the other party was a foreigner, and they were in the consideration of international relations.
When the police/inspector sealed off the scene, the set of golden jade clothes was also smoothly transferred.
The weight of the golden jade robe is not light, in order to ensure safety, it is carefully carried out by at least 10 strong men, and as soon as it is lifted out, it is tightly surrounded in the middle to protect it from anyone accidentally touching.
And Mr. Shi Youcai, the owner of the golden jade clothes that Gu Ming briefly glanced at the venue, was also standing next to the golden jade clothes at this time, frowning tightly, obviously in a very bad mood.
