What is the hottest wenwan on the market now? Perhaps most people will answer that it is Nanhong, but how many people really understand Nanhong? Today, we invited Mr. You Changming, the famous Southern Red Carving Master, to tell us about the past and present of Nanhong Agate.
Nowadays, Nanhong is getting more and more popular in the wenwan market. Many people have heard of "South Red". In fact, Nanhong is the abbreviation of South Red Agate, which is a convention. Nowadays, Nanhong refers to the red agate produced in Baoshan, Yunnan and Liangshan, Sichuan. The South Red Agate was very popular in the Qing Dynasty. When the Qing Dynasty, all the people with heads and faces should wear the beads. The most important thing about the beads is the beads and the back clouds. At the time, the first choice for the beads and the back clouds was the South Red Agate.

However, the statement of Nanhong is a bit general, so in order to make a difference, the merchant will add a supplementary explanation of the origin in front of Nanhong, which is used to accurately describe the differences, such as Liangshan Nanhong and Baoshan Nanhong. In the red agate family, in addition to Nanhong, there are three other common red agates, which are called Xihong, Donghong, and Warring States Red.
Chinese wenwan, pay attention to details, details determine the value of the collection. Donghong, Nanhong, Xihong, and Warring States Red are all red agates, but there are differences in details, which directly leads to huge differences in their prices. So to play agate, first of all, you must clearly understand this red one, otherwise Donghong will buy Nanhong, and Hebei will fight for the national red. When the wallet is drummed again, it will only be tossed after repeated tossing. Two layers of cowhide.

Nanhong is particularly hot now. When you are hanging out in the antique market, the anxious players look at the red tablets in the counter. They are all South Red Beads. Zhangkou asks the price. The store quoted the 300 yuan, the 200 yuan. So you choose 2 each, and you want to buy a single person when you pick up 1000 oceans, but you find that there is some contempt in the eyes of the store. You can explain that this is Liangshan Nanhong, 300 yuan; that is Baoshan Nanhong, 200 Yuan Yike. You suddenly got sweaty, knowing that Baoshan South Red Beads were originally sold by grams, not by one.
Then, between Baoshan Nanhong and Liangshan and Nanhong, why is the price gap so large? There are two reasons.
The first is the difference in perception. Generally speaking, the red color of Baoshan South is more delicate and oily, with a translucent jelly feeling and a warm surface like jade. Although Liangshan Nanhong is also translucent, it looks very dry. The luster of the surface is the kind of glass that squints the eyes. It is not as oily and restrained as Baoshan Nanhong. This is the difference in appearance.
The second reason is that Baoshan South Red is scarce in raw materials, and it has been recorded in the old mine mouth of the Qing Dynasty. It has hundreds of years of historical inheritance and cultural precipitation, while Liangshan Nanhong is a new material discovered in recent years. It’s a long way to go. In addition, there is a more important reason, that is, Baoshan Nanhong's high-quality raw materials are scarce. Nowadays, Baoshan South Red New Materials on the market are mostly from new mines developed later. Due to geographical and mining techniques, there are many cracks. The fine material discharge rate that can be processed and utilized is particularly low. There are often a lot of Baoshan South Red raw materials, and there are very few fine materials that can be processed and utilized. Therefore, the wenwan circle has a jargon of “no cracks and no mountainsâ€, and that’s it.
Everyone to the wenwan market, Taonan Red Agate, will find a problem: the merchants selling Liangshan Nanhong will generally emphasize the origin, such as joint materials, nine-mouth materials, and wattage materials, but Baoshan Nanhong is often called Baoshan material, not very good. Subdivision. This is easy to misunderstand, thinking that there is only one kind of Baoshan Nanhong. In fact, Baoshan Nanhong and Liangshan Nanhong, the raw materials are also divided into different pits, and the appearance of each other is also quite different. This is what we need to know when purchasing Baoshan Nanhong.
The famous sea dam of Yangliu Township
Baoshan Nanhong is produced in a mountainous area on the outskirts of Baoshan City, Yunnan Province. The locals call it Agate Mountain. This mountain is hundreds of miles long and covers many towns and villages around. From the current excavation situation, there are agate mines in the entire Agate Mountain area. Baoshan Nanhong has recorded the earliest developed mine mouth, and the locals called the drip hole, which is said to have a history of 500 years of mining. During the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty, when the pit was excavated to a depth of 80 meters, the yield of the south red produced by the mine was inferior and it was difficult to form a device. The literary circle rumors that Baoshan South Red raw materials are exhausted, and this is also the result. However, this is not the case. In the past few years, the locals tried to dig deep into the depth of 100 meters in the drip hole and found a lot of high quality agate. However, the drip hole has indeed been sealed, but the real reason is not that there is no agate inside, but because the drip hole mine is close to the dam foundation of a local reservoir. The local government is worried that mining agate will affect the stability of the dam foundation, so it decided to stop mining completely. The mine was sealed with cement several years ago.
After the drip hole was sealed, people also discovered the new Baoshan South Red Mine in the surrounding areas of Yangliu, Dongshan, Manglan and Xiaba. The quality and quality of Baoshan Nanhong produced by these different pits vary greatly. Therefore, in terms of accuracy, Baoshan Nanhong's raw materials are divided into three or six, etc. due to their different pits, which should be different.
Then, the raw materials of different mine pits in Baoshan Nanhong are better and worse? Here is a secret, the sorting is roughly the same: the best is the dripping hole material, the color is full, the splitting is less, and the oiliness is high. However, because the drip hole pit has been sealed for many years, the current South China Red red drip hole material is very rare. After the drip hole, the good quality of Baoshan Nanhong is Yangliu material, Dongshan material, lower dam material and Mangwan material. At present, the persimmons that we can see on the market are Hongbaoshan Nanhong, mainly from the pits of Yangliu and Dongshan. In contrast, Baoshan Nanhong, produced by the Lower Dam and Mangkuan, has a farther color and luster than the willow and Dongshan materials.
