the criteria for purchasing high-value seaweed stone suitable for collection
The indigenous Indians of the Caribbean islands have long discovered and utilized this gemstone called Larimar. As its name suggests, the stone has a deep blue like the ocean, and a beautiful form of blue and green and white sea foam light and shadow. The patchy seaweed stone will resemble the flowing sea water in the light, showing an attractive blue color and sparkling waves. Because of this unparalleled beauty, the Dominicans regard seaweed stone as their national stone. Because the Dominican government strictly controls the mining of seaweed, it is considered a valuable gemstone in the region and is used as a gift as a gift of respect.
Now let's learn about the sea vein stone with the crystal dance of the Bodha Crystal House family!
The unique, ocean-like blue and white texture of sea stria is mainly composed of its special crystal structure and the internal low-valence copper ions, copper hydroxide. Without these, then the tone of the sea strione itself is white. For sea striking, the grain is an important indicator of its value. The texture of sea grain stone can be roughly divided into six types: clear and regular small turtle back pattern, clear large grain turtle back pattern, full flocculent pattern, large pattern flocculent, small pattern flocculent, and messy and unregulated pattern. It's almost in order from best to second, and the first three textures are the more pleasing on the market.
In addition to this, there is a general standard reference on the market: the clearer the grain, the more like sea ripples, the higher the value.
1. Texture
For sea striking, the grain is an important indicator of its value. The texture of sea grain stone can be roughly divided into six types: clear and regular small turtle back pattern, clear large grain turtle back pattern, full flocculent pattern, large pattern flocculent, small pattern flocculent, and messy and unregulated pattern. It's almost in order from best to second, and the first three textures are the more pleasing on the market. In addition to this, there is a general standard reference on the market: the clearer the grain, the more like sea ripples, the higher the value.
2. Color
The luster should also be bright and soft, not dark. The bluer the color, the better, and the more it resembles the sea veins in the sea, the higher the value. Color and value order: dark cobalt (volcanic blue> turquoise blue (turquoise>-like blue), sky blue> light blue> white.
3. Ice penetration and jadeization
Sea striated is a translucent to opaque gemstone, and the higher its light transmission, the higher its value. However, it should be noted that the blue part should be transparent and the white part should be opaque. In fact, jade and ice are two completely different concepts. Literally, jade is the feeling of being like jade, and that feeling is very moist, and ice penetration, which is the feeling of being like ice, and the feeling of ice is not moist at all. In terms of touch, the jade seaweed stone is very smooth, even if the hand is relatively dry, there will be no friction to the touch. And the ice-through sea vein, because it is not smooth, will have a lot of friction to the touch.
4. Cut
It is mainly curved and bead-shaped, and has recently been carved and formed. Engraving can perfect the deficiencies of a gemstone, making it more perfect, more ornate and more valuable. The quality of the carving's ornamentation and its symbolic significance have an impact on the price.
5. Clarity
The clarity of sea stripes is different from the clarity of diamonds. Clarity here refers to the degree of internal blemishes and impurities. Sea striae is a kind of aldacite containing copper, which is opaque in various shades of blue or blue-green, often with reddish-brown impurities. Cracks, spots, impurities, and other imperfections can affect the clarity and value of sea veinstone. In addition, red seamlites with iron content are relatively rare, and in Dominica, their prices are higher than those of ordinary textured seaweeds.
The highest price of a stone with a beautiful texture like a wave is only about 1,000 yuan a gram, and the average person only needs to spend about 300 to 400 a gram of the price, and you can already buy a very good-looking and high-quality seaweed stone.
Therefore, when judging the price range of a seaweed stone, we should first pay attention to finding a reliable business, so that the general price is matched with the product, and secondly, do not be confused by good-looking pictures, look at the stone comprehensively, and every detail can not be missed.
I believe that you will fall in love with this pure sea blue when you see it, as if listening to the sound of waves hitting the reef, feeling the footsteps of the wind running freely in the blue sky, and being immersed in it, as if you see the waves playing, the sea breeze singing, sparkling in the sun, the world is so beautiful, this is the national stone of Dominica - sea vein stone!
