產地[编辑]

寿山石主要出產於中国福建省福州市市郊北部約30多公里的寿山乡，日溪乡,闽侯县等地。

歷史[编辑]

1954年在褔州倉山區发掘南朝的墓葬群中發現用寿山石雕刻的石猪。距今已有一千五百餘年。歷經唐宋朝雕刻艺術漸漸成形，但作品仍以人物及动物石俑為主。現褔州市博物館藏有以上這些雕刻作品。元明朝開始與起用叶腊石制印，寿山石成為印石材料的一個重要品種，同時寿山石的雕刻艺術也随着產生并逐步发展。直至清朝初年楊玉璇、周彬等雕刻名家出現，促使東门、西门两個流派逐漸形成。

品种[编辑]

寿山石有田坑，水坑，山坑之分。石坑寿山，角山，九茶山，月尾溪，都灵坑，坑头洞，水晶洞等处。

田坑[编辑]

主条目：田黄

田坑產自寿山鄉一帶溪旁水田底所埋藏的零散獨石。田黄石是田坑的簡稱。在地質学上稱為“冲積型砂礦”外觀特征：質地溫潤可愛，微透明或半透明，石肌里隱隱可現蘿蔔狀細紋，顏色外濃而向內逐漸变淡，石表有時裹黄色、白色、灰黑色或黑色的（鳥雅皮）石皮。間有紅色格紋。其品種主要按色澤區分。通常分為：田黃石、白田石、銀裹金石、紅田石、綠田石、黑田石、田黃凍、硬田、擱溜田和溪管獨石等。

寿山石与其它产地印章石比较[编辑]

寿山石与青田石的产地特征比较（依据朱选民2011年珠宝研究表明）

• 主要矿物方面:青田石的主要矿物为叶蜡石，以叶蜡石为主的青田石约占青田石品种总数的70%以上，而寿山石的主要矿物为地开石(高岭石族矿物)。
• 次要矿物方面:蓝线石、红柱石、刚玉，特别是近宝石级的单晶体蓝刚玉为青田石的特征次要矿物。青田石中的叶蜡石较少伴生有硬水铝石，寿山石中的叶蜡石常伴生有大量的硬水铝石次要矿物。
• 新品种方面:青田石和寿山石中均发现有绢云母型新品种。
• 珍贵品种的矿物组成:寿山石中的珍贵品种田黄石的矿物组成为珍珠陶石和地开石，而青田石中的珍贵品种灯光冻的矿物组成为叶蜡石。
• 结构有序度方面:青田石的内部结构有序度普遍高于寿山石。
• 透明度方面:青田石的透明度普遍低于寿山石。因为青田石以叶蜡石为主，矿物组成复杂，次要矿物丰富，结构相对疏松，含铁量较多。而寿山石以地开石为主。一般来讲，叶蜡石型印章石的透明度低于地开石型印章石。
• 分类方面:青田石目前分为叶蜡石型、地开石型、伊利石型和绢云母型。寿山石分为田坑、山坑、水坑、原生矿、次生矿。
• 青田石、寿山石的产地特征存在差异与它们的母源岩性、成矿环境和蚀变作用差异有关。

Origin [edit]
Shoushan stone mainly produced in Fuzhou, Fujian Province, China's northern suburbs about 30 kilometers of Shoushan Township, on the river Township, Minhou County and other places.
History [edit]
In 1954 in the Cangshan District of Fuzhou to explore the southern tombs found in Shou Shan stone carved stone pig. Has been more than 1,500 years ago. After the Tang and Song Dynasties carving art gradually forming, but the works are still characters and animal stone figurines. Fuzhou City Museum is now possession of these carving works. Yuan and Ming dynasty began with the use of pyrophyllite printing, Shoushan stone as an important species of Indian stone material, while Shou Shan stone carving art also with the gradual development and development. Until the early Qing Dynasty Yang Yuxuan, Zhou Bin and other carving masters, to promote the East Gate, Simon two schools gradually formed.

Shoushan stone and other origin seal stone comparison [edit]
Comparison of the Origin of Shoushan Stone and Qingtian Stone (According to Zhu Xuanmin's 2011 Jewelery Study)Main mineral aspects: Qingtian stone is the main mineral pyrophyllite, pyrophyllite-based Qingtian stone accounted for more than 70% of the total number of Qingtian stone varieties, and Shoushan stone is the main mineral for the ground stone (kaolinite minerals).• Secondary mineral aspects: Blue line stone, andalusite, corundum, especially near-gem-level single crystal blue corundum is a characteristic secondary mineral for Qingtian stone. Qingtian stone in the pyrophyllite less associated with hard boehmite, Shoushan stone in the pyrophyllite is often associated with a large number of secondary minerals.• New varieties: Serratite new varieties are found in Qingtian stone and Shoushan stone.• Precious species of mineral composition: Shoushan stone in the precious species of Yellowstone mineral composition of pearl stone and ground stone, and Qingtian stone in the precious varieties of frozen mineral composition of pyrophyllite.• Order of order: Qingtian stone internal structure order degree is generally higher than Shou Shan stone.• Transparency: The transparency of the Qingtian stone is generally lower than that of Shoushan Stone. Because Qingtian stone to pyrophyllite-based, complex mineral composition, secondary mineral rich, relatively loose structure, more iron content. And Shoushan stone to ground-based stone. In general, the transparency of the pyrophyllite seal stone is lower than that of the ground stone type.• Classification: Qingtian stone is currently divided into pyrophyllite type, ground stone type, illite type and sericite type. Shoushan stone is divided into Tiankeng, mountain pit, puddle, primary ore, secondary mine.• The differences in the origin characteristics of the Qingtian stone and Shoushan stone are related to their maternal lithology, metallogenic environment and alteration.

田黄是叶腊石的一种，是制作印章的珍品石材，與其他產至寿山的石材，統稱為“壽山石”。从颜色上分，田黄主要分黄、白、紅、黑四色；黄的称“田黄”，白的称“白田”，紅的稱“紅田”，黑的稱“黑田”，黄白兼有者称“金裹银”。其中以田黄为贵，而黃色又分有黃金黃色、枇杷黃、桂花黃及熟栗黃等。
田黄石质较软，溫潤膩凝。田黄石一般都含有石花，这种石花近似糠萝卜状，以遍体有糠萝卜纹者尤其珍贵，除此之外，一般亦有石根石格以及帶有石皮。
田黄石主要产自中国福建省莆田市、福州市晋安区的寿山等地，而壽山集中在壽山溪和溪邊田地出產，在溪上游出產的稱“上板田”，中游產的稱“中板田”，下游產的稱“下板田”，再下是“唯下板田”。當中以“中板田”色泽最黄，“下板田”的冻田黄石質最佳。而大块的田黄石材极难得，价值也极高，是以每克來計算。此地有俗话称“天生瑰宝出闽中”。


Tian Huang is a kind of pyrophyllite, is the production of seals of the treasures of stone, and other products to Shoushan stone, collectively referred to as "Shoushan stone." Yellow called "Tian Huang", white called "white field", red called "Hong Tian", black called "Kuroda", the black, Huang Bai both called "gold wrapped silver". Which is yellow and expensive, while the yellow is divided into golden yellow, loquat yellow, sweet-scented osmanthus yellow and cooked chestnut yellow and so on. Tianhuang stone is soft, warm and greasy condensate. Tian Huangshi generally contain stone flowers, this stone flower is similar to the bran radish-like, to the body with bran radish pattern is particularly precious, in addition, there are also stone and stone with stone skin. Tian Huangshi mainly produced in China's Putian City, Fujian Province, Fuzhou City, Shanxi Province, Shoushan and other places, and Shoushan concentrated in Shoushan Creek and Creek field production, produced in the upper reaches of the river called "on the plate" "In the plate field", the downstream production called "under the plate field", and then under the "only under the board field." Among them, "in the plate field" color of the most yellow, "under the plate field" frozen soil yellow stone quality best. And large pieces of Tianhuang stone is extremely rare, the value is also very high, is calculated per gram. Here is the saying goes, "born treasure out of Fujian."

雞血石產於浙江臨安市昌化鎮、內蒙古赤峰市巴林右旗、陝西旬陽縣等地，作為中國四大國石之一，與壽山石、青田石、巴林石齊名。而其中以昌化雞血石和巴林雞血石最為著名。
昌化雞血石，又名鳳血石，產於浙江省杭州臨安市昌化鎮西北面的玉岩山。該石是含辰砂礦物的緻密塊狀葉蠟石，具有鮮活艷麗如同雞血的色彩和亮麗剔透似美玉般的光澤，因其石色彩艷紅如雞血而得名。可用於製作印章、雕刻工藝品和原石欣賞。亦是我國最著名的四大系印章石之一。
關於昌化雞血石的形成有許多傳說，多與鳳凰有關。相傳，古代有一種鳥，叫「鳥獅」，生性好鬥。一天，覓食飛過玉岩山，見一凰正在孵蛋，頓生惡念，向其發起攻擊。毫無準備的凰被咬斷了腿。鳳聞訊趕到，同仇敵愾，戰勝了「鳥獅」。鳳凰雖然勝利了，但凰鮮血直流，染紅了整個玉岩山，遂成了光澤瑩透如美玉的雞血石。

中國人對於雞血石的認識始於明代初年，據史書記載，最早發現昌化雞血石的是上溪鄉玉山村一位農民，他在村莊對面康山嶺西側砍樵小憩時，見腳下露出地表的岩石晶瑩如玉，紅似雞血，艷麗非凡。出於好奇，他用鐵杵鑿下一塊帶回家中，村民們爭相觀賞，愛不釋手。由於昌化石軟硬適中，適宜鐫刻，特別是鮮紅的「血色」，不僅艷麗，而且象徵著吉祥，因此迅速傳揚開來，得到宮廷和工藝美術界的喜愛，迅速被列為中國圖章石之珍貴品種。相傳在一段時間內，獻玉石者可得官，稱之「玉石官」。
民間傳說，收藏雞血石會帶來好運，百姓藏之，可興家辟邪；帝王藏之，可鎮國安邦。清代官吏帽飾中，以花翎紅頂代表最高官位品級。雞血石紅曾代替珊瑚紅、瑪瑙紅為最高頂花品飾，可見雞血石當時身價之高。數百年來，昌化雞血石石一直受到文人雅士、商賈富豪、達官貴人，甚至帝王將相珍愛與收藏。
清代歷代皇帝與后妃多選昌化雞血石作為玉璽。乾隆49年，乾隆帝南巡到天目時，禪源寺主持獻給一方雞血石，乾隆帶去京刻了「乾隆之寶」玉璽一方。如今這方玉璽仍藏在故宮博物館的珍寶館「列代帝王印章六十八顆」之中，並註明有「用昌化雞血石雕刻」字樣。


昌化石石質相對多砂，一般都較壽山石和青田石稍堅，且硬度變化較大。質地也不如二者細膩。但也有質地細嫩者及各種顏色凍石。昌化石的顏色有白、黑、紅、黃、灰等各種顏色，品種也細分成很多種，多以顏色劃分。如白色者稱「白昌化」，黑色或灰色雜黑色者稱「黑昌化」，多色相間者則稱「花昌化」。而昌化石中，自古至今，自國內海外，最負盛名的便是「印石三寶」之一的「昌化雞血石」了。

Chicken blood stone produced in Lin'an City, Zhejiang Province Changhua Town, Inner Mongolia Chifeng City Bahrain Youqi, Shaanxi Xunyang County, as one of China's four major national stone, and Shoushan stone, Qingtian stone, Balin stone par. The Changhua chicken blood stone and Bahrain chicken bloodstone is the most famous.
Changhua chicken blood stone, also known as Fung blood stone, produced in Lin'an City, Zhejiang Province, Changhua Town, northwest of the jade rock. The stone is a dense block containing pyrophyllite mineral pyrophyllite, with fresh bright as chicken blood color and brightly carved like jade-like luster, because of its stone color red as chicken blood named. Can be used to make seals, carving crafts and enjoy the original stone. Is also one of the most famous four seal stone.
Changhua chicken blood on the formation of many legends, and more about the Phoenix. According to legend, there is a bird in ancient times, called "bird lion", nature of aggressive. One day, foraging fly over Yuyan Hill, see a phoenix is ​​hatching eggs, Dayton evil thoughts, to attack. Unprepared Phoenix was bitten off the leg. Feng heard the news arrived, a common enemy, defeated the "bird lion." Although the victory of the Phoenix, but the Phoenix blood DC, the red jade mountain, then became shiny Yingying, such as jade jade bloodstone.

Chinese people for the understanding of bloodstone began in the early Ming Dynasty, according to historical records, the earliest discovery of Changhua Chicken Bloodstone is a farmer in the village of Yushan Village, Kang mountain opposite his village in the west side of woodcutting rest, see the foot of the rock exposed Crystal jade, red like chicken blood, gorgeous extraordinary. Out of curiosity, he chiseled down with a Tiechu home, the villagers competing to watch, put it down. As the Chang fossil soft and hard moderate, suitable for engraving, especially the bright red "blood", not only beautiful, but also a symbol of good fortune, so quickly spread to get the court and the arts and crafts industry favorite, quickly classified as China Stones precious Variety. According to legend, in a period of time, offer jade who can get official, called "jade official".
Folklore, the collection of bloodstone will bring good luck, the people of possession, can Xingjia evil spirits; possession of the emperor, the country can peace. Qing Dynasty official hat decorated to the top of the highest grade of flowers Ling red top grade. Bloodstone red instead of coral, agate red for the highest top flower ornaments, visible chicken bloodstone was worth high. For centuries, Changhua chicken blood stone has been literati, merchants Regal, dignitaries, and even the emperor will cherish and collectors.
Qing dynasty emperors and emperors choose Changhua chicken bloodstone as jade seal. Qianlong 49 years, the Qianlong Emperor Tour to the head of the South, the Chanyuan Temple presided over a party dedicated to bloodstone, Qianlong brought to Beijing carved "Qianlong treasure" jade seal party. Today, the party is still hidden in the Palace Museum of the Treasure Museum, "Lie on behalf of the emperor 's seal of 68", and marked with "Changhua chicken blood carving" message.


Changhua stone relatively more sand, generally more than Shoushan stone and Qingtian stone a little firm, and the hardness changes. Texture is not as delicate as the two. But there are also fine texture and a variety of colors frozen stone. Chang fossil colors are white, black, red, yellow, gray and other colors, the variety is also broken down into many species, mostly color division. Such as white, said "white Changhua", black or gray miscellaneous black called "black Changhua", multi-color and white, said "Hua Changhua." Changhua Stone, since ancient times, since the domestic and overseas, the most prestigious is the "Indian Stone Sambo" one of the "Changhua Chicken Bloodstone."

 

 

雞血石是辰砂條帶的地開石，其顏色比朱砂還鮮紅。因為它的顏色像雞血一樣鮮紅，所以人們俗稱雞血石。 中國最早發現的雞血石是浙江昌化玉巖山雞血石。後來又發現瞭內蒙古赤峰市巴林右旗的巴林雞血石。20世紀90年代又在陜西、甘肅、四川、湖南、雲南等地發現瞭雞血石。

雞血石 -由來

雞血石印章雞血石是辰砂條帶的地開石，其顏色比朱砂還鮮紅。因為它的顏色像雞血一樣鮮紅，所以人們俗稱雞血石。 中國最早發現的雞血石是浙江昌化玉巖山雞血石。後來又發現瞭內蒙古赤峰市巴林右旗的巴林雞血石。20世紀90年代又在陜西、甘肅、四川、湖南、雲南等地發現瞭雞血石。由於現在的昌化朱砂(汞礦)已近尾聲，所以出產的雞血石產量相當有限，市場價格日增不衰。
相傳，古代有一種鳥，叫“鳥獅”，又稱鳳鳥，生性好鬥。一天，覓食飛過玉巖山，見一凰正在孵蛋，頓生惡念，向其發起攻擊。毫無準備的凰被咬斷瞭腿。鳳聞訊趕到，同仇敵愾，戰勝瞭“鳥獅”。鳳凰雖然勝利瞭，但凰鮮血直流，染紅瞭整個玉巖山，遂成瞭光澤瑩透如美玉的雞血石。據考證，雞血石的開采始於明代，而盛名於清代，康熙、乾隆、嘉慶等皇帝十分賞識昌化雞血石，將其作為寶璽的章料。國傢郵政局日前發行的一套《雞血石印》特種郵票印的就是兩方寶璽。
上世紀70年代初，日本前首相田中角榮、前外相大平正芳來我國訪問，周恩來總理將昌化雞血石對章，作為國禮饋贈兩位貴賓。操刀奏石者是集雲閣篆刻傢沈受覺、劉友石先生。於是，雞血石在日本名聲大噪，掀起瞭一股收藏雞血石熱潮。大批日本遊客來華時，必將雞血石作為首選禮品帶回國內。在我國，國人對雞血石的收藏投資熱情也逐年上升。

雞血石 -主要成份

昌化雞血石雞血石含有辰砂、(朱砂)、石英、方解石、輝銻礦、地開石、高嶺石、白雲石等礦物，且大部分含硫化汞等多種成份的矽酸鹽礦物。產地不同，質地成分也不同，但都離不開硫化汞成分。
雞血石由“地”和“血”兩部組成。一般認為“血”的礦物成分主要是辰矽。“地“的成分，如昌化雞血石，其“地”的礦物成分以粘土礦物中的地開石為主，也含有相當量的高嶺石，明礬石、埃洛石、石英、黃鐵礦等。
巴林雞血石主要是高嶺石和硬水鋁石；而質地較為細膩的黑凍雞血石和芙蓉凍雞血石的主要礦物成分為地開石和辰砂；前些年在吉林某金礦之頂部發現有近似“金頂紅”的脈石英致密塊體，其中辰砂非常細小，質地堅硬細膩，也是硬地含辰砂石料，當地稱朱砂玉。

雞血石 -形狀

各種形狀的雞血石雞血石沒有固定的形狀，叫塊石狀，它的色狀有塊血、條血、梅花血、浮雲血。
塊血：分佈沒有規律，東生—塊、西生一塊，有的塊石表面有一大塊紅色，而裏面面一點紅的都沒有；有的恰拾相反，所以購買雞血石毛科風險很大。
條血：分佈有規律。
梅花血：象梅被開放一樣，整個石頭都是星星點。
浮雲血：它生在寬帶或條帶的間接處，即象條血又象梅花血。所以它的血形象天上的浮雲一樣。
【顏色】
雞血石的顏色有鮮紅、淡紅、紫紅、暗紅等，最可貴的是帶有活性的鮮紅血形。

雞血石 -傳說

雞血石工業品
昌化雞血石出產於浙江省臨安市昌化鎮西50 公裏的浙西大峽谷源頭—海拔1300 餘米的玉巖山、屬天目山系，為仙霞嶺山脈的北支，周圍群山環抱，峻嶺綿延，高山峽谷形成瞭獨特的氣候條件，當地民謠為：板橋直壟通，風雨不斷蹤。夏天蓋棉被，十月雪花飄。在雞血石產地，有許多有關雞血石的傳說，這其中之一便是鳳凰滅蝗蟲，血灑玉巖山。
傳說，遠古時，一對美麗的鳳凰在天庭翱翔時，不時聽到哀怨之聲，俯首一看，見蝗蟲成災，瘟疫流行，作物不長，滿目荒涼，百姓愁苦。善良正義的鳳凰見此情景，決意以自己的力量去消滅蝗害，驅散瘟疫，匡扶生靈。通過努力，美好的願望實現瞭，感恩的百姓，請求鳳凰留下，共同沐浴晨歌與暮曲。鳳凰被百姓的精誠所感動，在一座山巔——康山嶺，築起瞭鳳凰沼棲居，不久鳳凰沼周圍，所有山巖，變得潔白透明，如同白玉一般，玉巖山由此得名。玉巖山上百鳥齊鳴，玉巖山下百姓安居樂業。但就在這時，山上來瞭一對強橫的鳥獅，它們見到鳳凰巢居在如此美麗的山頭，創造如此輝煌的業績，受到百姓的恩戴產生瞭忌妒之心，從而決心將鳳凰趕走，占據鳳凰沼。一天，正當雌鳳凰進入孵育期，雄鳳外出覓食之際，偷襲鳳巢，攻擊雌鳳凰，雌鳳凰勇敢地與之博鬥，鳳獅之戰使得玉巖山上風聲鶴唳，日月無光。雄鳳回巢時，雌鳳凰被鳥獅啄斷瞭一條腿，血灑玉巖山，最後，鳳凰含著悲憤仍由自己的智慧和力量擊敗瞭鳥獅，含淚掩埋瞭被無辜踐踏的鳳凰蛋後騰空而去。
鳳凰離去，百姓痛惜萬分，他們對天祈禱，請求神靈保佑正義的鳳凰。百姓的誠意，鳳凰的啼血，感動瞭天地。玉皇大帝派皇太子下凡視察實情，令地藏菩薩將鳳凰血和鳳凰蛋點化成美麗的丹石，並賦予瞭塊塊丹石逢兇化吉，驅邪揚善，懲惡佈愛的力量。從此，玉巖山上鳳凰血和鳳凰蛋經過千萬年的埋藏，而成瞭今天的稀世珍貴——雞血石，雞血石本應叫鳳血石，這是後人在開采礦時發現它的色彩與剛宰殺的雞血滴在玉石上相似，才習慣稱作“雞血石”。

雞血石 -所處位置

雞血石產自低溫熱液礦床、火山巖或熱泉沉積礦的朱砂條帶的頭尾及邊緣地帶，產量相當有限。

雞血石 -用途

雞血石主要用作印章及工藝雕刻品材料。

雞血石 -形成和開采

雞血石產地巴林1、形成
雞血石為朱砂（硫化汞） 滲透到高嶺石，地開石之中而形成，這樣兩者交融，共生一體的天然寶石，在國內外是極為罕見的。
2、性狀
雞血的成份是硫化汞，石質則為地開石或高嶺石，硬度為2—3度。石中時常帶有水銀斑及少量的石英顆粒突起於石表面。雞血中除主要成份為硫化汞外，還含有少量的致色元素鐵、鈦，它們是深色染劑，它的含量多少是雞血呈現不同紅色的主要原因，含量多則血色呈暗紅色。另外，雞血石也含有不同的感光元素硒、碲，這也是雞血在光照和熱烤下退色或變色（呈現暗紅）的主要原因。
3、分佈
昌化雞血石產地在浙江省臨安縣上溪鄉玉巖山，礦洞分佈在康山嶺一帶。
4、開采
雞血石開采於明初，當時雞血石露出巖石表層，古人根據熱漲冷縮的原理開采，在露出巖石表面的雞血石上燒柴，巖石全部燒熱後，用冰冷的溪水澆潑，使石頭分裂，再用鐵鏟很容易即把雞血石采下。這樣的采法少有裂紋，但雞血石在沒有開采出前很可能多已變黑或變暗，而采出量也非常小。這種采法一直延續到清末民初，基於表層露頭的雞血石都已采竭，改用炸藥爆眼，再用手掘或機掘深挖
5、如何鑒別真假雞血石
帶血色的石頭稱為雞血石，不帶血色的則稱為昌化石。
品評雞血石，首先是看“血”的紅色，以其鮮、凝、厚為佳。鮮者紅如淋漓之鮮血；凝者聚而不散；厚者指有厚度有層次深透於石層中者。另外雞血石的地張也是判斷雞血石的重要依據。地張就是紅色染在什麼樣的石頭上。雞血石的地張以純凈、半透明，無釘與血之鮮紅色彩交相輝映者為上品。雞血石的品樣可分為方形、長方形、橢圓形、圓形、畸形，尺寸大致以5——2公分的徑邊為宜。
雞血石的質地細膩，帶韌性，結構緊密，受刀不崩。
好的雞血石都不加雕琢，以做印章為最宜。可以這麼說，凡是加雕刻的雞血一般都為遮掩其疵，是不足為貴的。
由於雞血石質佳價高，作偽者很多。雞血石的作偽方法大體上有下面幾種：
（l）鑲嵌法，采一質地較好的昌化石章，選擇幾面醒目的地方，分別挖出一個個深淺不一的小坑，然後用紅色的流化汞塗料嵌入，待其自然陰幹後，再磨光上蠟。不過，這種嵌入的雞血（硫化汞）沒有層次，同時血與昌化石的交接處色澤生硬，沒有過渡。
（2）浸漬法，取一方昌化石，在需要的地方塗上硫化汞，陰幹再塗，再陰幹，使其血稍有層次，然後放在透明的樹脂裏浸漬，務使周身浸到，拾起晾幹，再用細水沙打光即成。用這種方法做成的假雞血石，因樹脂易老化，日久表皮會泛黃，與內部的石色不相協調；同時樹脂表皮的毛孔比較粗。用放大鏡仔細觀察，其表面有一點點細小的擦眼。
（3）切片貼皮法，用切割機把石章的六個平面分別切割出薄如紙的六面。於其內需要的地方塗上硫化汞。待晾幹後再用熱燙的辦法和以膠水把原來切割下來的六個薄片按原樣貼回去，然後把薄片與膠合處的線角磨光。這樣雞血的紅色看起來生在石章裏面，而且自然分佈。但血的層次畢竟隻能停留在一個平面上。此類石章，隻能局限於正方形或長方形的石章，其他的都不行。因為圓形和畸形的石章無法割斷和刻邊款，這樣薄片燙貼的痕跡就顯露出來瞭。
（4）添補法，這是在真雞血石上，再添加硫化汞，並在添加的部分表面罩上一層極薄的樹脂，磨光後即成。這類方法是在血上加血，無疑是錦上添花，價值大增。同時真中有假、假假真真。所以對於特別好的雞血石，在觀察時必須注意和聯想到作偽者的手法，方可避免“大意失荊州”的後果。
目前，最著名的雞血石按產地命名分別是昌化雞血石和巴林雞血石。按質地一般分為4大類：凍地雞血石、軟地雞血石、軟鋼板地雞血石和硬鋼板地雞血石。它同壽山田黃並列，享有“印石皇後”的美稱，為中國印文化的發展作出瞭巨大貢獻。

雞血石 -品種與鑒賞

 
昌化雞血石可分為凍地、軟地、剛地和硬地四大類。凍地雞血石為玻璃凍、羊脂凍、牛角凍、桃花凍等，微透明或半透明，硬度在2—3級。軟地雞血石的硬度為2—4級，剛地雞血石是高嶺石、明礬石巖經後期矽化的產物，硬度在4—7級。硬地雞血石是成礦過程中矽化作用的產物，地質學名為辰砂矽化凝灰巖或含辰砂矽質巖，主要成份SiO2，其硬度大於7級。
昌化雞血石的品質是血和地。血色為鮮紅、正紅、深紅、紫紅等，雞血的形狀有塊紅、條紅、星紅、霞紅等，並能達到鮮、凝、厚為佳，深沉有厚度，深透石中，有集結或斑佈均衡為佳。血量少於 10%者為一般，少於30%為中檔，大於30%者為高檔，大於50%者為珍品，70%以上者珍貴難得。全紅或六面血為極品。紅而通靈的雞血石稱為“大紅袍”，??紅色“雞血”以外，底色尚有黑、白、黃、綠、藍、灰褐、紫、青等基本顏色，再加上濃淡深淺不一的各種色彩相互融合，天然渾成，不須人工雕鑿，已構成一幅幅自然美麗的圖案。黑白地與雞血三色的稱為“劉關張”，也是奇妙之品，色彩奇麗，變化萬千。除此之外，昌化雞血石石質中，還具有“細、紅、潤、膩、溫、凝”之六德。
根據雞血石的血色和質地可分為：大紅袍、玻璃凍、田黃凍、羊脂凍、牛角凍、朱砂凍、藕粉凍、五彩凍、桃紅凍、豆青凍、瑪瑙凍、木紋凍、魚腦凍、魚子凍、蛇皮凍、雪花凍等。

 

 

雞血石 -巴林雞血石

巴林雞血石王中國的雞血石按其產出地域區分為昌化雞血石與巴林雞血石。昌化雞血石產於浙江省昌化縣以西約４０公裏名為上溪的深山之中。巴林雞血石產於內蒙古巴林右旗，其地子細潤，透明度好，以凍地為主，不含＂砂釘＂雞血石上的紅色按形態可分為片紅、條紅、斑紅、點點、團紅等數種。紅色的凝結程度越高，分佈越集中，占據面積越大越好，石頭的身價也就越高。有的雞血石的質地與血色天然成趣，令人激動，惹人喜愛，於是人們便為它貫以漂亮的名字：比如，石頭或印章的外表全部被雞血所覆蓋的，被稱為＂大紅袍＂；印章的頂部有紅色，身體部分的石質通透似肉凍的，被稱為＂鶴頂紅＂；石頭上有紅、黑、白（或黃）三種顏色相伴而生的，因為與《三國演義》中的劉備、關羽、張飛的臉譜相契合，所以被稱為＂劉、關、張＂或＂桃園三結義＂。另外還有周帶紅、滿點紅、多彩紅等等，都是觀賞與收藏的佳品。
雞血石主要產於浙江省昌化地區和內蒙古的巴林右旗。巴林右旗盛產巴林 石。巴林石的質地溫潤，色澤豐富，適合篆刻雕刻，是很好的印章石，也是觀賞石中的佼佼者。巴林石分為雞血石類，凍石類和彩石類。礦物成分主要為：地開石、高嶺石、辰砂等。一塊好的雞血石，石質純凈，血色鮮艷奪目，地子與血能夠彼此地呼應。雞血石按照血色分，有鮮紅、大紅、暗紅等等。按照形態分有片紅、條紅、斑紅等數種。總的來說血色凝結程度越高，分佈越集中，占據面積較大的雞血石，質量也就越高。

雞血石 -昌化雞血石

（清）大紅袍昌化雞血石成份與特征
昌化雞血石是中國特有的名貴石種，具有艷麗鮮紅如雞血般的色彩和亮晶如美玉般的光澤，被譽為“國寶”而馳名中外，是中國四大名石之一。
清乾隆年所修《浙江通志》曾記載：“昌化縣產圖章石，紅點若朱砂，亦有青紫如玳瑁，良可愛玩，近則罕得矣。”雞血石形成於晚侏羅紀（約一億年前）流紋凝灰巖中，是朱砂（硫化汞HgS）在高嶺石（Ko）與地開石（Di）之間不斷滲染而成，摩氏硬度為 2~3 ，比重為 2.66~2.9 ，其成份為 AI2（Si4O10）(OH)2。
在評選中國國石中，昌化雞血石具備瞭“四性”：獨有性——據我國地質部門的調查和各國地質文獻的記載，目前世界其他國傢均無此類礦產發現；奇特性——形、色即奇異，又特別，十分罕見；觀賞性——形、色、紋理及質地美麗無比，百玩難舍，從中獲益；文化性——在傳統文化中有一席之地，皇帝寵愛，佈衣珍惜。
地理與傳說
昌化雞血石出產於浙江省臨安市昌化鎮西 50 公裏的浙西大峽谷源頭—海拔 1300 餘米的玉巖山、屬天目山系，為仙霞嶺山脈的北支，周圍群山環抱，峻嶺綿延，高山峽谷形成瞭獨特的氣候條件，當地民謠為：板橋直壟通，風雨不斷蹤。夏天蓋棉被，十月雪花飄。在雞血石產地，有許多有關雞血石的傳說，這其中之一便是鳳凰滅蝗蟲，血灑玉巖山。
傳說，遠古時，一對美麗的鳳凰在天庭翱翔時，不時聽到哀怨之聲，俯首一看，見蝗蟲成災，瘟疫流行，作物不長，滿目荒涼，百姓愁苦。善良正義的鳳凰見此情景，決意以自己的力量去消滅蝗害，驅散瘟疫，匡扶生靈。通過努力，美好的願望實現瞭，感恩的百姓，請求鳳凰留下，共同沐浴晨歌與暮曲。鳳凰被百姓的精誠所感動，在一座山巔——康山嶺，築起瞭鳳凰沼棲居，不久鳳凰沼周圍，所有山巖，變得潔白透明，如同白玉一般，玉巖山由此得名。玉巖山上百鳥齊鳴，玉巖山下百姓安居樂業。但就在這時，山上來瞭一對強橫的鳥獅，它們見到鳳凰巢居在如此美麗的山頭，創造如此輝煌的業績，受到百姓的恩戴產生瞭忌妒之心，從而決心將鳳凰趕走，占據鳳凰沼。一天，正當雌鳳凰進入孵育期，雄鳳外出覓食之際，偷襲鳳巢，攻擊雌鳳凰，雌鳳凰勇敢地與之博鬥，鳳獅之戰使得玉巖山上風聲鶴唳，日月無光。雄鳳回巢時，雌鳳凰被鳥獅啄斷瞭一條腿，血灑玉巖山，最後，鳳凰含著悲憤仍由自己的智慧和力量擊敗瞭鳥獅，含淚掩埋瞭被無辜踐踏的鳳凰蛋後騰空而去。
鳳凰離去，百姓痛惜萬分，他們對天祈禱，請求神靈保佑正義的鳳凰。百姓的誠意，鳳凰的啼血，感動瞭天地。玉皇大帝派皇太子下凡視察實情，令地藏菩薩將鳳凰血和鳳凰蛋點化成美麗的丹石，並賦予瞭塊塊丹石逢兇化吉，驅邪揚善，懲惡佈愛的力量。從此，玉巖山上鳳凰血和鳳凰蛋經過千萬年的埋藏，而成瞭今天的稀世珍貴——雞血石，雞血石本應叫鳳血石，這是後人在開采礦時發現它的色彩與剛宰殺的雞血滴在玉石上相似，才習慣稱作“雞血石”。

雞血石 -欣賞

雞血石因石頭中具有鮮紅色似雞血的辰砂（朱砂）而得名。浙江昌化玉巖山的雞血石開發始於明代早期，盛於清代乾隆時期，至今已有600多年的歷史。雞血石美麗、晶瑩、稀少，歷來被譽為“石後”、“印石公主”、“章石皇後”。
1972年9月中日建交時，周恩來總理曾代表中國政府，把一對原藏故宮博物院的雞血石章贈與日本首相田中角榮。此事在日本、東南亞、中國港澳臺地區引起極大的反響、掀起求購、收藏、觀賞雞血石的熱潮。
雞血石是觀賞石中的奇葩。現代雞血石的欣賞和品評主要受直觀因素、心理因素、價值因素制約。過去以章石為主，而現代則以觀賞為主。見仁見智，有多種不同的欣賞角度和品評方法。一般依據雞血石的顏色、質地、花紋、大小（重量）、瑕疵等特征進行欣賞與品評。雞血石的顏色多種多樣。例如紅色就有鮮紅、大紅、淡紅、暗紅、深紅等，一般以鮮艷的紅色為上品。紅色的多少也是品評的因素之一，有人認為，全紅為上，即指印章六面含血而言，四面紅次之，對面紅又次之，單面紅、頂腳紅、局部紅為下。全紅的雞血石俗稱“大紅袍”。也有人認為，“全石通紅，沒有其它顏色去襯托，失去瞭對比，紅色反而顯得平淡而不特出，俗話說得好，‘牡丹雖好，還需要綠葉扶持’”。

雞血石 -保養方法

雞血石應避免長時間放在日光或燈下，以免雞血因紅色部分變暗而減低瞭價值性。平常則宜擦上或浸於好的潤石油中，如美玉一般，使石質與空氣隔絕，減少因溫差變化而造成石質龜裂的可能性，且可增加石質的溫潤性。另外避免碰撞、摔裂即可。
雞血石適當的把玩、磨擦，可使呈“老光”，亦稱為“寶光”，而成為“老石”質更可人。其道理和磐玉的道理完全一樣。但對刻有薄意之印石或雕刻品則應避免，以免破壞瞭雕工，使之面目全非。
對未刻的印石，或原石等，則不妨多磨擦；未刻的印石有較不易損傷的好處，玩石兼養石，其樂趣之無窮，非親身體驗，難入其境矣！

 

雞血石 -對人體的益處

雞血石因內含辰砂（朱砂），既硫化汞，所以有些人斷言它對人體是有害的。但個人認為有失偏頗。
首先：朱砂可以入藥，具有以下功效：
[臨床應用]
1．用於心神不寧，心悸，失眠。朱砂甘寒質重，專入心經，寒能清熱；重能鎮怯。所以朱砂既可重鎮安神，又能清心安神，最適心火亢盛之心神不寧、煩躁不眠，每與黃連、蓮子心等合用，以增強清心安神作用。亦可用治其它原因之心神不寧，若心血虛者，可與當歸、生地黃等配伍，如朱砂安神丸；陰血虛者，又常與酸棗仁、柏子仁、當歸等養心安神藥配伍；驚恐或心氣虛心神不寧者，將本品納入豬心中燉服即可。
2．用於驚風，癲癇。本品重鎮，有鎮驚安神之功。用治高熱神昏、驚厥，常與牛黃、麝香等開竅、息風藥物同用，如安宮牛黃丸；治小兒急驚風，多與牛黃、全蠍、鉤藤等配伍，如牛黃散；用治癲癇卒昏抽搐，每與磁石同用，如磁朱丸。
3．用於瘡瘍腫毒，咽喉腫痛，口舌生瘡。本品性寒，有較強的清熱解毒作用，內服、外用均效。治療瘡瘍腫毒，多與雄黃、大戟、山慈菇等配伍，如紫金錠；治療咽喉腫痛、口舌生瘡，多與冰片、硼砂等配伍，如冰硼散。
其次，用巴林石、雞血石做飾物自古有之，尤其是在國際市場上，雞血石首先是被作為珠寶首飾而被認同的。

雞血石 -鑒別真假雞血石

雞血石可分為雞血、質地、重量等三種方式區分：
1 、假雞血：沒有銀斑，色度深淺不勻，線條粗細不一，花紋不自然，排列不符合雞血賦存規律，肉眼細觀極易區別。
2 、質地：用塑膠化合物假造，完全沒有石感，用刀刻也沒有石屑粉。有人甚至將雞血石切片，再粘貼於粗石上，再用填縫膠及石粉粘合，狀極似真雞血石，仔細在強光下則可辨別真偽，或觀察血色及畫形是否一致或有無連貫，不難識破。再則，有人用石粉加化合物，塑模塗上“朱砂”或大紅水彩假造雞血而成。
3 、重量：真雞血石的重量較沉穩，假雞血的重量較輕浮，隻要細心用以下步驟測試：（ 1 ）用砂佈細磨，真雞血石材會呈石粉狀而有朱砂紅之現象，化石物則沒有；（ 2 ）用刀雕刻，假雞血石下刀後呈塑質之卷曲石屑，能感覺出來；（ 3 ）用火燒，假雞血石會有燒焦的膠臭味，真雞血石則不會；（ 4 ）用手量質重，假雞血石因質地不同而感覺較輕；

切片貼皮法

　　用切割機把石章的六個平面分別切割出薄如紙的六面。于其內需要的地方涂上硫化汞。待晾干后再用熱燙的辦法和以膠水把原來切割下來的六個薄片按原樣貼回去，然后把薄片與膠合處的線角磨光。這樣雞血的紅色看起來生在石章裡面，而且自然分布。但血的層次畢竟只能停留在一個平面上。此類石章，只能局限于正方形或長方形的石章，其他的都不行。因為圓形和畸形的石章無法割斷和刻邊款，這樣薄片燙貼的痕跡就顯露出來了。

添補法

　　這是在真雞血石上，再增加硫化汞，并在增加的部分表面罩上一層極薄的樹脂，磨光后即成。這類方法是在血上加血，無疑是錦上添花，價值大增。同時真中有假、假假真真。所以對于特別好的雞血石，在觀察時必須注意和聯想到作偽者的手法，方可避免“大意失荊州”的后果。

Chicken bloodstone is a sandstone to open the stone, the color is also bright red than cinnabar. Because of its color as bright red as chicken blood, so people commonly known as bloodstone. China's earliest discovery of chicken bloodstone is Zhejiang Changhua jade rocks rock. Later found the Inner Mongolia Chifeng Bahrain Youqi Bahrain bloodstone. 90 years in the 20th century and in Shaanxi, Gansu, Sichuan, Hunan, Yunnan and other places found bloodstone.
Bloodstone - origin
Chicken Bloodstone Seal Chicken Bloodstone is a kind of sandstone that is made of cinnabar, and its color is bright red than cinnabar. Because of its color as bright red as chicken blood, so people commonly known as bloodstone. China's earliest discovery of chicken bloodstone is Zhejiang Changhua jade rocks rock. Later found the Inner Mongolia Chifeng Bahrain Youqi Bahrain bloodstone. 90 years in the 20th century and in Shaanxi, Gansu, Sichuan, Hunan, Yunnan and other places found bloodstone. As the current Changhua cinnabar (mercury mine) is near the end, so the production of chicken blood stone production is quite limited, the market price is growing.
According to legend, there is a bird in ancient times, called "bird lion", also known as phoenix birds, aggressive nature. One day, foraging fly over Yuyan Hill, see a phoenix is ​​hatching eggs, Dayton evil thoughts, to attack. Unprepared Phoenix was bitten off the leg. Feng heard the news arrived, anger, defeated the "bird lion." Although the victory of the Phoenix, but the Phoenix blood DC, the red jade mountain, then became shiny Yingying, such as jade jade bloodstone. According to research, the development of chicken bloodstone began in the Ming Dynasty, and the famous in the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Kangxi, Qianlong, Jiaqing and other emperors appreciate Changhua chicken bloodstone, as the seal of the material. Recently, the State Post Bureau issued a set of "Bloodstone" special stamps printed on both sides of the Bao Xi.
In the early 70s of last century, former Japanese Prime Minister Tanaka Kakuei, former Foreign Minister Masayoshi Ohira came to visit China, Premier Chou En-lai Changhua chicken bloodstone chapter, as the country gift two honored guests. Who played the stone playing is set cloud house carving home Shen feel, Mr. Liu Youshi. Thus, bloodstone in Japan, fame, set off a wave of blood collection of chicken boom. A large number of Japanese tourists to China, will be the first choice as a gift to bring home bloodstone. In China, the people of the collection of bloodstone investment enthusiasm has increased year by year.
Bloodstone - the main ingredient
Quartz, calcite, stibnite, dickite, kaolinite, dolomite and other minerals, and most of the mercury sulfide and other ingredients of silicate minerals. Different origins, texture components are different, but are inseparable from mercury sulfide ingredients.
Bloodstone from the "ground" and "blood" two parts. Generally believed that "blood" mineral composition is mainly Chen silicon. "Earth" ingredients, such as Changhua Chicken Bloodstone, the "Earth" mineral composition to clay minerals in the open stone-based, but also contains a considerable amount of kaolinite, alunite, halloysite, quartz, pyrite .
Bahrain chicken bloodstone is mainly kaolinite and hard boehmite; and texture is more delicate black frozen bloodstone and hibiscus frozen chicken bloodstone of the main mineral composition for the open stone and cinnabar; a few years ago in Jilin gold at the top of the discovery of a similar "golden top red" Of the quartz-dense block, which Chen Sha very small, hard and delicate texture, but also hard to contain Chen stone material, locally called cinnabar.
Bloodstone - shape
A variety of shapes of chicken bloody stone Bloodstone does not have a fixed shape, called block stone, its color has block blood, blood, Plum blood, cloud blood.
Block blood: the distribution of no law, the East Health - block, West Health piece, and some stone surface of a large piece of red, and there is no red face; some just the opposite, so the risk of buying chicken blood stone Branch.
Article blood: a regular distribution.
Plum Blood: Like plum is open, the whole stone is a star point.
Cloud blood: it is born in the broadband or strip of the indirect place, that is, like a blood and plum blood. So its blood like the clouds in the sky.
【Colour】
Bloodstone colors are bright red, pink, purple, dark red, the most valuable is the activity of the bright red blood.
Bloodstone - Legend
Chicken bloodstone industrial products
Changhua chicken blood stone produced in Lin'an City, Zhejiang Province, Changhua Town, 50 km west of the Grand Canyon source - more than 1,300 meters above sea level Yuyan Hill, is a Tianmushan, Xianxialing mountains for the north branch, surrounded by mountains, Ridge stretches, alpine valleys formed a unique climatic conditions, the local folk as: Banqiao straight ridge, the wind and rain continue to track. Summer covered quilts, floating snow in October. In the origin of chicken blood, there are many legends about bloodstone, one of which is the Phoenix off locusts, blood jade jade mountain.
Legend, ancient times, a pair of beautiful phoenix in the sky soaring, from time to time to hear the voice of sorrow, bowed a look, see locusts disaster, plague epidemic, crop is not long, deserted, people sorrow. Phoenix of good and just see this scene, determined to their own power to eliminate locusts, to disperse the plague, Kuang Fu souls. Through hard work, a good desire to achieve, and thanks to the people, ask the Phoenix to stay, the common bath morning song and twilight song. Phoenix was the people of the sincere touched, in a mountain - Kang Shanling, built the phoenix marsh dwelling, and soon around the phoenix marsh, all the rocks, become white and transparent, as white jade, jade rock hence the name . Yuyan mountain birds on the Qiming, Yuyan down the mountain people live and work. But at this time, the mountains to a pair of tyrannical birds and lions, they see the Phoenix nest in such a beautiful hills, to create such a brilliant performance, by the people of Nandai had a jealous heart, and thus determined to remove the Phoenix , Occupy Phoenix marsh. One day, when the females into the incubation period, the male phoenix out foraging occasion, attack phoenix nest, attack female Phoenix, female phoenix bravely with the fight, the lion war makes Yuyan Hill jittery, sun and the moon without light. Xiongfeng back to the nest, the female phoenix was a bird lion pecked a leg, the blood spilled jade rock, and finally, the phoenix resentment by his wisdom and power still beat the birds lion, tears buried innocent trampled Phoenix Eggs after vacated away.
Phoenix to leave, the people deplored, they pray to heaven, request the gods bless the justice of the Phoenix. The sincerity of the people, Phoenix's blood, touched the world. Jade Emperor sent the Crown Prince to visit the truth, so that the possession of the Buddha and the Phoenix Phoenix blood into a beautiful Dan Dan Shi Dan, and give the block Dan Dan Fenghao Kyrgyzstan, exorcism, punish the power of cloth love. Since then, Yu-yan mountain Phoenix and Phoenix eggs after thousands of years of blood and buried, and became today's rare precious - bloodstone, bloodstone should call phoenix blood stone, which later found in the mining of its color and just Slaughtered chicken blood drops similar to the jade, only used to be called "bloodstone."
Bloodstone - Location
Chalcogenite is produced in the head and tail regions of the cinnabar strip of low-temperature hydrothermal deposits, volcanic rocks, or hot-spring deposits, and yield is rather limited.
Bloodstone - Uses
Chicken bloodstone is mainly used as seal and craft sculpture material.
Chalazite - formation and mining
The origin of chicken blood 1, the formation of Bahrain
Gallstone for the cinnabar (mercuric sulfide) to penetrate into kaolinite, to open the stone and the formation of such a blend of the two, one of the natural symbiotic gems, at home and abroad is extremely rare.
2, traits
The composition of chicken blood is mercuric sulfide, stone is kaolinite or kaolinite, hardness of 2-3 degrees. Stone often with mercury spots and a small amount of quartz particles protruding from the stone surface. Chicken blood in addition to the main component of mercuric sulfide, but also contains a small amount of coloring elements iron, titanium, which is a dark dye, its content is the number of chicken red blood showed the main reason for the content of the blood was dark red . In addition, the chicken blood stone also contains different photosensitive elements selenium, tellurium, which is blood in the light and heat baked fade or discoloration (showing dark red) the main reason.
3, the distribution
Changhua chicken origin in Lin'an County, Zhejiang Province on the town of jade rock, Kuangdonggou distribution in Kang Shanling area.
4, mining
Chicken bloodstone mining in the early Ming Dynasty, when the blood rock exposed rock surface, the ancients according to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction of mining, exposed rock rock on the surface of the firewood, rock all heat, pouring with cold water, splitting the stone, With a shovel it is easy to take under the bloodstone. This mining method has few cracks, but the chicken blood stone is not likely to have been mined before the black or dark, and the output is very small. This mining method has been extended to the end of the Qing Dynasty, the surface outcrops of bloodstone have been exhausted, switch to explosive eye, and then hand dig or dig deep excavation
5, how to identify true and false bloodstone
Bloody stone called bloodstone, without blood is called Chang fossils.
Tasting chicken bloodstone, the first is to see "blood" red, with its fresh, condensate, thick is better. Those who are thick as a layer of deep penetration in the stone layer were. In addition to the bloodstone to determine the bloodstone is also an important basis. Zhang is the red dye in what kind of stone. Chicken bloodstone to pure, translucent, no nails and blood of the red color of each other for the top grade. Chicken blood sample can be divided into square, rectangular, oval, round, deformed, the size of roughly 5 - 2 cm radius of the edge is appropriate.
Fine texture of chicken bloodstone, with toughness, structure, close by the knife does not collapse.
Good bloodstone are not carved, to seal as the most appropriate. It can be said, all carved chicken blood are generally to cover their defects, is not expensive.
Because the good price of chicken blood stone, a lot of fake. Chicken bloodstone of the pseudo-methods are generally the following:
(L) mosaic law, mining a good texture Changhua stone, choose a few eye-catching areas, were dug up a shade of a different pit, and then use the red fluidized mercury paint embedded, until its natural dry , And then polished wax. However, this embedded chicken blood (mercuric sulfide) there is no level, while the junction of blood and Chang fossils blunt, there is no transition.
(2) impregnation method, take a Fang fossils, where necessary, coated with mercuric sulfide, dry and then coated, and then dried, so that the blood a little level, and then placed in a transparent resin impregnated, so that the whole body soaked , Picked up to dry, and then light water sand Serve. Fake bloodstone made in this way, because the resin is easy to aging, the course of time the skin will be yellowed, and the internal stone color is not coordinated; at the same time the resin skin pores relatively rough. Carefully observed with a magnifying glass, the surface has a little bit of small rub eyes.
(3) Sliced ​​skin method, with the cutting machine to the stone of the six planes were cut out as thin as six sides of the paper. Where it is required to be coated with mercuric sulfide. To be dried and then use the method of blanching and glue to the original cut down the six slices of the original paste back, and then glue the line with the angle polished. This chicken red blood appears to be born inside the stone, and naturally distributed. But the level of blood, after all, can only stay in a plane. Such stone, can only be limited to a square or rectangular stone, the other will not work. Because the circular and deformed stone can not be cut and carved side section, so that the traces of thin paste posted on the exposed.
(4) fill method, which is true bloodstone, and then add mercury sulfide, and add some of the surface covered with a layer of very thin resin, polished Serve. This method is to increase blood in the blood, is undoubtedly the icing on the cake, the value greatly increased. At the same time there are false, false true. Therefore, for a particularly good bloodstone, in the observation must be noted that the fake and associate the way to avoid the "effect of lost Jingzhou" consequences.
At present, the most famous bloodstone named by the origin of Changhua chicken bloodstone and Bahrain bloodstone. According to the texture is generally divided into four categories: frozen ground bloodstone, soft bloodstone, soft steel plate of bloodstone and hard plate to chicken bloodstone. It is the same Shou Shan Tian Huang, enjoy the "Indian stone queen," the name for the development of China's Indian culture has made tremendous contributions.
Chicken Bloodstone - Variety and Appreciation


Changhua chicken blood stone can be divided into frozen, soft, just and hard to four categories. Frozen ground bloodstone for the glass cold, suet frozen, frozen horns, peach flowers, etc., micro-transparent or translucent, hardness 2-3. Soft bloodstone hardness of 2-4 grade, just to chicken stone is kaolinite, alum stone by the late silicification of the product, the hardness of 4-7. Hard rock bloodstone is the product of silicification in the process of mineralization. The geology is named as cinnabar silicified tuff or sandstone siliceous rock. The main component is SiO2, its hardness is greater than 7.
Changhua chicken blood quality is blood and land. Red, red, purple, etc., the shape of chicken blood block red, red, red, red, etc., and can reach fresh, condensate, thick as good, deep with thickness, deep through the stone, Aggregate or patch balance is better. Less than 10% of the general population, less than 30% of the mid-range, more than 30% were high, more than 50% were treasures, more than 70% were rare. All red or six blood for the best. Red and the psychic chicken blood called "Dahongpao", red "chicken blood", the background there are black, white, yellow, green, blue, gray, purple, green and other basic colors, Different shades of various colors of mutual integration, natural Huncheng, do not have artificial carving, has formed a site of natural beautiful pattern. Black and white and chicken blood called the three-color "Liu off", is also a wonderful product, color Qi Li, changing. In addition, Changhua chicken rock stone, but also has a "fine, red, moist, greasy, warm, condensate," the six German.
According to the color and texture of chicken bloodstone can be divided into: Dahongpao, glass cold, Tianhuang frozen, lamb frozen, frozen horns, cinnabar frozen, lotus root frozen, frozen, frozen peanuts, frozen bean, agate frozen, Brain frozen, roe frozen, snake skin frozen, snow and other frozen.




Bloodstone - Bahrain Bloodstone
Bahrain Chicken Bloodstone China Chicken Bloodstone is divided into Changhua Chicken Bloodstone and Bahrain Chicken Bloodstone according to its output region. Changhua chicken blood stone produced in Changhua County, Zhejiang Province, about 40 km west of the mountain named on the river. Bahrain Chicken Bloodstone produced in Inner Mongolia Balin Right Banner, its sub-fine run, transparency, and to freeze-based, excluding "sand nails" chicken bloodstone red according to the form can be divided into red, red, Group red and so on. Red the higher the degree of condensation, the more concentrated distribution, occupy the larger the better, the higher the value of the stone. Some bloodstone texture and bloody natural interest, exciting, lovable, so people will be consistent with its beautiful name: for example, the appearance of stone or seal all covered by chicken blood, known as the "Dahongpao Red, black, white (or yellow) three colors accompanied by, because with the red, black, white (or yellow) with the color of the red, the body part of the stone transparent like flesh, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei's facial fit, it is called "Liu, Guan, Zhang" or "Taoyuan three sworn". In addition to weeks with red, full of red, colorful red, etc., are viewing and collection of the best.
Bloodstone is mainly produced in Changhua area of ​​Zhejiang province and Bahrain right flag of Inner Mongolia. Balin Right Banner is rich in Balinese stone. Balin stone texture moist, rich color, suitable for carving, is a good seal stone, stone is also the leader in ornamental. Bahrain stone is divided into chicken bloodstone, frozen stone and stone class. Mineral composition is mainly: to open stone, kaolinite, cinnabar and so on. A good bloodstone, stone pure, bloody bright eye-catching, the earth and the blood can echo each other. Bloodstone in accordance with the color points, there are bright red, red, dark red and so on. In accordance with the form of a film red, red, spotted red and several other. In general the higher the degree of color condensation, the more concentrated distribution, occupy a larger area of ​​bloodstone, the higher the quality.
Bloodstone - Changhua chicken bloodstone

 (Qing) Dahongpao Changhua chicken blood stone composition and characteristics
Changhua Chicken Bloodstone is a precious stone species unique to China, with bright red as chicken-like color and shining like a jade-like luster, known as the "national treasure" and famous at home and abroad, is one of the four famous stone.
"The annals of Zhejiang" by Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty have recorded: "Changhua county produces the stone, red dot if the cinnabar, also has the blue purple as the hawksbill, good lovable play, near is rare

昌化雞血石

印石之雞血石全世界目前只有兩個產地昌化與巴林，且均被列為中國十大國石；比較好的雞血石價位與半寶石相近，如2.5＊2.5＊12 cm的頂級方章價值可能超過臺幣百萬，超越黃金若干倍，在印石中僅次於田黃。
　　高檔印石相繼絕產，讓老師父無石可以刻，這是讓高檔印石之原石上漲的第一個動力；第二個動力是絕產後，大家會問她們原來的樣子？第三個動力，是 大家發現原石很少，變成搶破頭。當然原石也是分等級的，上面這件原石也只是教學用，有部分是凍地、軟地，而較多為硬地〈硬度達到７且十分強靭〉，最多是母 岩。如果整塊是硬地就不能稱為雞血石，而也沒有多大價值了。

Bloodstone around the world are currently only two origin Changhua and Bahrain, and are listed as China's top ten national stone; good price and semi-precious stones Bloodstone similar value as the top party chapter 2.5 * 2.5 * 12 cm may exceed NT $ million gold beyond several times, second only to India in Tianhuang stone.
India never produced high-grade stone after another, so that the old master no stone can be engraved, this way, the first high-end power of the original stone seal stone rising; second power is absolutely postpartum, we would ask them to look like the original? The third power, is that we find very few original stone into a dogfight. Of course, the original stone is graded above this original stone was only teaching, some are frozen, the soft ground, and more hard to <hardness of 7 and very tough> up is the mother rock. If the block is hard can not be called Bloodstone, but there is not much value.

雞血石

雞血石是辰砂條帶的地開石，其顏色比朱砂還鮮紅。因爲它的顏色像雞血一樣鮮紅，所以人們俗稱雞血石。中國最早發現的雞血石是浙江昌化玉岩山雞血石。後來又發現了内蒙古赤峰市巴林右旗的巴林雞血石。20世紀90年代又在陝西、甘肅、四川、湖南、雲南等地發現了雞血石。由於現在的昌化朱砂(汞礦)已近尾聲，所以出產的雞血石產量相當有限，市場價格日增不衰。

 

 

簡介

 

　　相傳，古代有一種鳥，叫“鳥獅”，又稱鳳鳥， 生性好鬥。一天，覓食飛過玉岩山，見一凰正在孵蛋，頓生惡念，向其發起攻擊。毫無准備的凰被咬斷了腿。鳳聞訊趕到，同仇敵愾，戰勝了“鳥獅”。鳳凰雖然勝 利了，但凰鮮血直流，染紅了整個玉岩山，遂成了光澤瑩透如美玉的雞血石。據考證，雞血石的開采始於宋代，而盛名於清代，康熙、乾隆、嘉慶等皇帝十分賞識昌化雞血石，將其作爲寶璽的章料。國家郵政局日前發行的一套《雞血石印》特種郵票印的就是兩方寶璽。

雞血石印章

 

　　上世紀70年代初，日本前首相田中角榮、前外相大平正芳來我國訪問，周恩來總理將昌化雞血石對章，作爲國禮饋贈兩位貴賓。操刀奏石者是集雲閣篆刻家沈受覺、劉友石先生。於是，雞血石在日本名聲大噪，掀起了一股收藏雞血石熱潮。大批日本游客來華時，必將雞血石作爲首選禮品帶回國内。在我國，國人對雞血石的收藏投資熱情也逐年上升。

 

　　顏色：雞血石的顏色有鮮紅、淡紅、紫紅、暗紅等，最可貴的是帶有活性的鮮紅血形。

　　所處位置：雞血石產自低溫熱液礦床、火山岩或熱泉沉積礦的朱砂條帶的頭尾及邊緣地帶，產量相當有限。

 

　　用途：雞血石主要用作爲印章或是工藝雕刻品材料。“印石三寶”之一。

主要成份

　

雞血石原石

　雞血石含有辰砂、(朱砂)、石英、方解石、輝銻礦、地開石、高嶺石、白雲石等礦物，且大部分含硫化汞等多種成份的硅酸鹽礦物。產地不同，質地成分也不同，但都離不開硫化汞成分。

 

 　　雞血石由“地”和“血”兩部組成。一般認爲“血”的礦物成分主要是辰矽。“地“的成分，如昌化雞血石，其“地”的礦物成分以粘土礦物中的地開石爲主，也含有相當量的高嶺石，明礬石、埃洛石、石英、黄鐵礦等。

 

 　　巴林雞血石主要是高嶺石和硬水鋁石；而質地較爲細膩的黑凍雞血石和芙蓉凍雞血石的主要礦物成分爲地開石和辰砂；前些年在吉林某金礦之頂部發現有近似“金頂紅”的脈石英致密塊體，其中辰砂非常細小，質地堅硬細膩，也是硬地含辰砂石料，當地稱朱砂玉。

形狀

　

　　雞血石沒有固定的形狀，叫塊石狀，它的色狀有塊血、條血、梅花血、浮雲血。

 

 　　塊血：分布沒有規律，東生—塊、西生一塊，有的塊石表面有一大塊紅色，而里面一點紅的都沒有；有的恰拾相反，所以購買雞血石毛料風險很大。

 

　　條血：分布有規律。

 

　　梅花血：象梅被開放一樣，整個石頭都是星星點。

 

　　浮雲血：它生在寬帶或條帶的間接處，即象條血又象梅花血，血形象天上的浮雲一樣，故名。

Bloodstone is cinnabar strip dickite, which is also the color of red than vermilion. Because of its bright red color like blood, like, so people commonly known as soapstone. China first discovered soapstone jade rock Zhejiang Changhua soapstone. Later it was found in Inner Mongolia Chifeng City Balinyouqi Bahrain Bloodstone. In the 1990s and in Shaanxi, Gansu, Sichuan, Hunan, Yunnan and other places discovered soapstone. Now that the Changhua cinnabar (mercury) is almost complete, so Bloodstone yield produced is quite limited, increasing the market price is not bad.

According to legend, ancient times there is a bird called "bird lion", also known as Phoenix, pugnacious. One day, foraging flying jade rock, see a phoenix are hatching, sudden and devastating evil, its attack. Unprepared Phoenix was biting his leg. Phoenix heard the news arrived, against the common enemy, defeated the "bird lion." Although the victory of the Phoenix, but Phoenix bled red jade rock the whole, then became gloss Ying through as jade bloodstone. According to research, soapstone mining began in the Song Dynasty, and reputation in the Qing Dynasty Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong, Jiaqing and so very appreciated Bloodstone, as a Bao Xi chapter material. State Post Bureau recently issued a set of "Soapstone India" special stamps is printed both Bao Xi.Soapstone sealSoapstone seal

如何鉴定鸡血石原石

如何鉴定鸡血石原石，鸡血石因石头中具有鲜红色似鸡血的辰砂(朱砂)而得名。浙江昌化玉岩山的鸡血石开发始于明代早期，盛于清代乾隆时期，至今已有600多年的历史。鸡血石美丽、晶莹、稀少，历来被誉为“石后”、“印石公主”、“章石皇后”。那么如何鉴定鸡血石原石呢?
与相似石块的鉴别方法：朱砂玉、血玉髓、寿山石和染色岫玉与鸡血石在外型上具有相似之处。朱砂玉的主体是石英并且其中辰砂的分布主要呈星点状;血玉髓硬度明显大于鸡血石，其中血红色常呈斑点状，与鸡血石中的团块状、条带状形成明显差别;寿山石中的桃花冻因其为散布有如同米粒大小的鲜红血点似桃花瓣;染色岫玉有明显的染色特征。如何鉴定鸡血石原石。
与其他石块拼接的鉴别方法：一般有拼接鸡血石和镶嵌鸡血石两种，这种拼接石鉴别的时候就要仔细看了，会有明显的拼接痕迹。
假鸡血石的鉴别方法：假鸡血石是用无“血”或少“血”的夭然鸡血石并在其上绘上红色假“血”而成，鉴别时主要从其“血”的特征、硬度、血形、辰砂矿物存在与否并借助于化学试剂等方法进行。
人造鸡血石的鉴别方法：一般是以略色不透明的塑料为“地”，在其上用辰砂粉未或红色有机颜料当“血”，并在其外涂一层保护树脂，俗称“工艺鸡血石”。它的鉴别主要是基于其“地”的特征，并用热针探测及借助于化学试剂等进行。
