In life, we often misunderstand certain people or things. The causes of these misunderstandings are nothing more than two: one is the lack of necessary communication between each other; the other is that you lack the necessary knowledge reserves for something.
In fact, many people in life have misunderstandings about jewelry. Below, Xiao Bian is for everyone to count the eight knowledge in the jewelry industry, the most easily misunderstood, it is said that many people have been fooled!
Common sense
Misunderstanding 1: Only the ruby ​​produced in Myanmar can be called "pigeon blood red"
Many people think of "pigeon blood red" when they mention Myanmar. Similarly, when they mention "pigeon blood red", they must think of Myanmar. Indeed, the pigeon blood ruby ​​produced in the Mugu mine in Myanmar is indeed an old name, regardless of quality or market value. However, after long-term mining, its output and average quality have declined.
Say "Blood Blood Red" as a top-quality ruby ​​variety, it has a set of special identification standards. Simply put, as long as it has a certain fluorescence intensity and ruby ​​in the standard color gamut, no matter where it is produced, it can be issued a "pigeon blood red" certificate. For example, people have selected many high-quality rubies in the mining area of ​​Mozambique in modern times.
Misunderstanding 2: Jewelry has radiation that can cause cancer
In fact, there are two main reasons for the radioactivity of jewelry: one is that the gemstone grows together with the radioactive substance next to it in the long formation process; the other reason is that people irradiate a certain gemstone in order to get a beautiful color. deal with.
However, the gemstones we have now extracted have undergone hundreds of millions of years of crustal changes, so its radioactivity has long since decayed without any harm, so it can be worn with confidence. As for the case of artificial radiation, it is normal manufacturers who can perform such operations. They usually leave the gemstones for a period of time after irradiation, and then go on sale, and at this time, these weak radiations are no longer available. What harm to the human body?
Misunderstanding 3: Silver is black because the body has a problem.
In the film and television drama, we can often see such a bridge: someone puts a silver scorpion into the wine, and the silver scorpion turns black, then this shows that the wine is poisonous. In reality, when someone finds that the silverware they wear is black, they wonder if their body is out of order.
In fact, Xiao Bian wants to say that this is purely nonsense, because the material that makes the silver ornaments black on TV is the sulfur in the "ç ’éœœ". The silver that we usually see is black, but it is just a normal "oxidation reaction", and it has nothing to do with whether it is healthy or not. There is also a more funny saying on the Internet, that is, "the degree of blackening of silverware is likely to be related to the frequency of your bathing."

Misunderstanding 4: The hardness of the gemstone is very high, not afraid of bumping
Many people think that gems are very hard, not afraid of bumps. In fact, this sentence is only the first half, because most of the gemstones are indeed very hard, such as diamonds are the hardest substance in nature. However, in the case of diamonds, although it is hard but it is very brittle, it is easy to be broken if it falls accidentally. For example: glass is harder than wood, but it is easy to smash glass with a small piece of wood, because hardness and brittleness are two completely different concepts.
Misunderstanding 5: Pearl jewelry needs water maintenance
Many people in life think that pearls come from the water, so they are not afraid of water. Some people even think that the maintenance of pearls is inseparable from water. In fact, this view is wrong, because the pearl is no longer suitable for long-term contact after it is peeled off from the mother shell. This is mainly because the pearl has water absorption. If it is washed or soaked with water, the water will enter the pores of the pearl. In this way, the water in the pearl empty is not only difficult to dry, but also may ferment the inside, the bead line may also turn green, and eventually the pearl will crack.

Misunderstanding 6: Buying gold jewelry is equal to investing in gold
In jewelry stores, I often hear shopping guides and consumers say that buying gold jewelry is good, and value preservation is equal to saving money. In fact, gold jewelry is not the same as gold, which contains many aspects such as raw materials, process, labor costs, etc., much higher than the price of gold itself. When the price of gold rises, the price of jewellery will immediately rise; when the price of gold falls, jewelers will not slash the price of jewellery for profit, but will lag much. Therefore, the gold jewelry category is only suitable for wearing or collecting, and can not be used as an investment.
Misunderstanding 7: It is cheapest to go to the jewelry origin to buy jewelry.
Today's society is very "floating". In the hearts of many people, "the moon of foreign countries is always the most round." So they think that buying jewelry from a foreign jewelry source will definitely save a lot of money. But the reality is that many people are stunned by foreign jewelers. In the end, they don’t care whether the treasures are true or not, or whether they are expensive or not. Anyway, they are “rich and willfulâ€.
But you know? Whether you are going to Brazil to buy tourmaline, go to Myanmar, buy rubies in Sri Lanka, or go to South Africa to buy diamonds, in fact, the jewelry sold by these popular countries to foreigners is not necessarily cheap, but it will be much higher, because you buy it. gone. In addition, the most important thing is that many people buy high-priced foreign countries, and all of them are fake or inferior gems.
Misunderstanding 8: Big brand is a guarantee of high quality
Chinese people like to look at brands when they buy things, shoes for Nike, bags for LV, perfume for Dior, etc. It seems that as long as it is a big brand, it is equal to high quality. It is undeniable that the big brand does have its advantages, but nothing can be generalized. For a jeweler, it is not easy to build a brand, but it is easy to destroy a brand. For consumers, sometimes choosing a brand is worse than choosing a trusted jeweler.
Xiaobian whispers:
Although these jewellery knowledge seems to be simple, if you don't know it at all, it is really easy to be deceived. So if you have jewelers around you, let them see too!
