It's hard to tell whether it's true or not. It's a bit boastful. Here I will tell you how to buy real sea yellow beads as an ordinary sea yellow lover. In fact, everyone can find the relevant knowledge of sea yellow on the Internet, and also can find many articles about the difference between sea yellow and yellow, and other wood by experienced people. But the premise of identification in these articles is that you must have a lot of knowledge about all kinds of wood, and you must know what the smell of Dalbergia odorifera is, what kind of delicate wood grain is, what kind of clear pattern is, and so on. I stayed in Hainan for four years. Because of my personal preference, whenever I have time, I go to the Yellow Sea market to see beads, handicrafts and furniture, go to some processing plants to smell the Yellow Sea, go to the East Lake market in Haikou to watch others trade wood, and follow some old masters to the East and the Yangtze River to collect wood. I just want to say here that the only people who can really tell sea yellow from other wood at a glance are the old masters who make beads and carve all day. These people will not go to the market to sell sea yellow, nor will they write any appreciation articles. Masters judge sea yellow mainly by wood grain and smell, but for beads, the smell will be smelled after a long time.

How can we ordinary fans buy authentic sea yellow beads? I think we should mainly grasp the following points:

1 First of all, I want to clarify two concepts, wood grain and pattern. Wood grain refers to the texture of wood fibers, and the pattern is the pattern formed by wood fibers of different colors. Most people like to judge the authenticity of sea yellow by patterns. I want to tell you here that for beads, patterns don't mean anything. The more wood at the end of the branch, the finer the pattern, especially where there are many forks. The more beautiful the so-called grimaces and ghost eyes are, the clearer the patterns are. Whether it is sea yellow or other pears, it is the same. I've seen many ghost eyes. Therefore, judging the authenticity of sea yellow beads mainly depends on the wood grain, and the pattern is a reference. The wood grain of sea yellow is much finer than other wood (except rosewood willow, the difference between sea yellow and rosewood willow is mainly discussed later). Brown eyes of wood are thinner and longer than yellow eyes, and the size of brown eyes varies with the thickness of wood grain, and the distribution is uneven. This is only relative. Some sea yellow pores have big brown eyes, and some are like the texture of lobular rosewood, but the pattern is obviously different from lobular rosewood. In short, the sea yellow wood grain is delicate and the pattern is clear, but the following characteristics should be integrated.

2. The second important criterion for judging the authenticity of sea yellow beads is color and density. The color of sea yellow varies greatly from bran to oil, including yellow, red, brown, purple and black. For chaff, the general background color is yellow, the pattern is brown or light brown, and the pattern texture is clear, but the texture thickness changes, and generally it will not be distributed in parallel. For oilseeds, the background color is red and the background color is purple. It is mainly different from rosewood willow, whose color is close to sea yellow, but its background color is gray and its surface color is purple, and its brightness is not as soft as sea yellow. The biggest difference is its high density. 2.0 size beads, the weight of sea yellow is generally 40-55g, but some sea butter beads are above 55g. Be careful if a string of 2.0 beads weighs more than 55 grams. Most of the sea yellow 2.0 beads are below 48 grams. In short, density and color must be judged together!

3, to choose the right seller, this is the key factor to buy real sea yellow, the color and smell of beads can be faked, although the wood grain can not be faked, but for the average player, sea yellow, Dalbergia odorifera, sour branches and even other grass pears, how to distinguish between delicate and not delicate, if you don't see thousands of beads, you can't see it at all. Therefore, to buy authentic sea yellow beads, we must first investigate a reliable seller. A reliable seller must have three conditions: first, reliable personality, second, reliable supply, and third, return goods at any time.

4, you have to learn all kinds of wood knowledge, and practice in the carpentry room for a period of time, only in this way can you really identify, otherwise the identification knowledge taught by anyone is useless, and can only be guaranteed by the third point above!

Maybe everyone is still confused after reading it. It doesn't matter. In recent years, as a beginner, I have been visiting many so-called experts. They are actually more confused than you, only those who make beads know! In the words of an old master, fake sea yellow can't fool the sawing machine. So the source of the sea yellow you bought is the most important!
