How to distinguish the authenticity of cinnabar beads

There are three methods to identify the authenticity of cinnabar bracelets: soaking in water, burning and looking at the lines.

1, soaking method

You can identify the authenticity of cinnabar bracelets by soaking in water. After the cinnabar bracelet is soaked in water for a period of time, the real cinnabar bracelet will not fade, while the fake cinnabar bracelet will fade.

2. Combustion method

Put the cinnabar bracelet on the fire for barbecue, and the color of the real cinnabar bracelet will gradually turn black, and then change back to its original appearance after cooling. The color of the fake cinnabar bracelet will not change back to its original appearance after blackening, and it will still be black after cooling and will not recover. Generally, ornaments made of burning plastic will burn fully, and will melt and burn when lit with a lighter. The real cinnabar will not burn completely after it is ignited.

3. Look at these lines

Cinnabar bracelets can also be identified by looking at the lines. The grain on the surface of real cinnabar bracelets is thick and uneven, while the grain on the surface of fake cinnabar bracelets will be more uniform and regular.

Characteristics and precautions of cinnabar bracelet

1, cinnabar beads are absolutely not bright red and enchanting, and even worn on the wrist, they have no obvious decorative effect. Therefore, all real cinnabar rosary bracelets are not suitable for decoration.

2. The production of cinnabar beads is generally not standardized. Each bead is like a small clay ball, which is obviously hand-made without standard rounding.
