Talking about the jewelry knowledge you don't know in the jewelry world

With the growth of social economy and the development of human civilization, jewellery has become a kind of popularized product with value-added and artistic. At present, the jewellery industry is developing rapidly, and its penetration into other industries is also expanding. The consumption of jewellery has become diversified and the market competition is becoming increasingly fierce. As a major distribution center for jewelry in the world, China's jewelry has a history of confusing, and China Jewelry City (cnzbc.com) gives you a detailed knowledge of jewelry.

The development and application of gem materials can be traced back to the Paleolithic Age in ancient times. The ancients used the gravel as a decoration, which became a way for China to decorate life and survive. In the Warring States Period, it was the prosperous era of China's gem industry development. According to historical data, the book Shan Hai Jing was the earliest study of gem minerals.

In the narrow sense, gemstones refer to mineral single crystals with brilliant color, good transparency, high hardness, chemical stability and low yield, such as diamonds, emeralds, sapphires and gold emeralds, and also have a high reputation in the international jewelry market. , known as the "five emperors." Gemstones in a broad sense are materials that can be honed and carved into fine ornaments or crafts. In terms of characteristics, jade is characterized by toughness, fineness, beautiful color, strong luster and suitable for carving jade articles, which are commonly used in making jewelry and crafts. Most of the gemstones are natural inorganic gemstones, while some gemstones are derived from some animals or plants, such as the common amber, pearl, ivory, coral, etc., also known as organic gemstones. Nowadays, there are hundreds of gems in the world, and there are only 50 kinds of gems that can be beautiful, rare, durable and processed, and only 15 kinds of medium and high-grade gems.

In the past 10 years, due to the reference to foreign countries in terms of technology and methods, the gemological research in China has also achieved rapid development. From the previous traditional, macroscopic and qualitative descriptions, the development of micro-regions, micro-scales and micro-levels has gradually been realized, and the integration with the international gemological research field has been realized.

The development of modern high-paying technology has promoted the continuous introduction of new synthetic and artificial gemstones and optimized processing of gemstones. The difference between some synthetic gemstones and natural gemstones is shrinking, and the characteristics of some optimized irradiation gemstones are similar to those of natural gemstones. Therefore, the identification of gemstones has brought great difficulties. The traditional gem identification does not adapt to the development of the current era. Now people have begun to carry out comprehensive, systematic and in-depth research on gemstones, and finally led to gem identification technology. The level begins to develop vertically.
