真假雞血石鑑定 How to identify the authenticity of Blood stone (Part 2)

真假雞血石鑑定
雞血石的仿製和處理工藝日漸復雜,在外觀上和常規測試數據幾乎與天然雞血石一樣,給鑑定帶來了一定的難度。寶石顯微鏡是鑑定市場上仿雞血石和染色處理雞血石最有效鑑定的手段之一,通過放大觀察可以看到天然雞血石的“血”在形態和分佈特點是人工手段難以模仿的,紅外光譜儀在使用時需要有效結合顯微鏡來選取合適的測試部位。
雞血石是珠寶市場上深受石友們爭相收藏的藏品,雞血石、田黃石與青田燈光凍石被譽為“印石三寶”。近年來受產量和需求的影響,市場上雞血石價格日增不衰。相應而來的還有各種雞血石仿製品(處理雞血石)的產生,市場上仿製和優化處理工藝主要有“刷漆”(又稱塗抹法)、粘補法、再造法等。
肉眼觀察特徵 “血”整體為分佈厚度均勻的層狀,且兩層 “血”層近平行分佈,在凹坑處層狀分佈於凹坑處的平面。“血”在平面分佈上呈明顯的流動狀。樣品整體為一塊狀隨形雕件,但底部已鋸開成平面,從底部可以看到明顯的浸染狀外觀,類似於浸蠟處理後造成的外觀。
顯微鏡下特徵 “血”部位可見明顯反光,局部呈金剛光澤,外形呈團塊狀分佈且無立體感。另外,在白色基質部位明顯可見單獨分佈的粗粒狀辰砂顆粒。用銅針在樣品隱蔽處刺探,雞血石表面“凍”地偏軟,如蠟感,而刺探“血”處,蠟感也比較明顯,沒有在真雞血石的“血”處刺探時的顆粒感。
作工藝 通過以上特徵,基本可以斷定該“雞血石”的製作工藝:在不含或含少量“血”的地開石材料上通過人工工藝打磨出磨圓外形及各種凹坑,以便在外觀上更像天然的“原石”;在製作好的“原石”上分兩道工序塗覆“血”到“原石”上,首先把粉碎的辰砂顆粒和蠟質的有機物塗敷在表面,隨後將“原石”放入石英和蠟質混合物中,結果導致該“原石”整體罩上了閉合的外殼,所以最初在觀察時,由於第一層“血”分佈於整體的基底中,而找不到明顯塗覆的痕跡。其次,在塗過“殼”的原石表面再塗敷一層與里層相似的“血”,與第一層“血”相比,該步驟“血”塗覆的比較隨意,不仔細觀察會給人以一種自然之感。

True and false identification Bloodstone Chicken blood stone generic and increasingly complex treatment process, in appearance and routine test data almost as natural soapstone, to bring a certain degree of difficulty to identify. Gem microscope is one of the most effective means to identify fake identification Bloodstone Bloodstone and dyed on the market, can be seen by observing the natural amplification Bloodstone "blood" in the morphology and distribution of artificial means is difficult to imitate, infrared spectroscopy requires the use of effective integration of the microscope to select suitable test site. Soapstone is a collection of popular rock faithful eager to collect on the jewelry market, soapstone, Yellowstone and Qingtian stone cold light known as "Indian stone treasures." In recent years affected the yield and demand, the market price of soapstone growing briskly. There comes a corresponding variety of soapstone imitation (handle soapstone) produce, and market generic optimization process are "painting" (also known as the smear method), sticky complement, recycling method.
 
Naked eye feature "blood" as a whole is distributed uniformly thick layered, and two "blood" layer nearly parallel distributed, layered distribution in the pits at the pits at the plane. "Blood" in the plane of the flow distribution was significantly shaped. Sample as a whole with the shape of a massive carved pieces, but the bottom has been sawn into a plane, you can see clearly from the bottom of the dip-like appearance, similar to the appearance of the dip caused by wax treatment.
 
Under the microscope features "blood" part can be seen clearly reflective, local was adamantine luster, shape lumps and no three-dimensional distribution. Further, in the white part of the matrix particles visible cinnabar separate coarse granular distribution. In samples with copper needles shelter spying, soapstone surface "freeze" to soft, feel like wax, and spying "blood" of the wax is also more obvious sense, grainy Bloodstone's not true "blood" at the time of spying. Through the above process for the features, which can be concluded that the "Bloodstone" production process: in free or low "blood" to the open process through artificial stone material grinding out a rounded shape and a variety of pits, so the appearance of more Like natural "rough"; points in the production of a good "rough" two coating processes "blood" to the "rough", first pulverized cinnabar particles and organic matter waxy coating on the surface, followed by the "original stone "into the quartz and wax mixture, resulting in the" rough "the whole cast a closed shell, so that when the initial observation, the first layer of" blood "distributed in the whole of the substrate, while no obvious smear follow signs. Next, the coated rough "shell" in the surface and then coated with a layer similar to the "blood", as compared with the first layer of "blood", this step is the "blood" relatively free coated, careful observation will not people with a sense of nature.
