Crystal jewelry investment approach
In the just-concluded NY Christie's auction of Chinese porcelain crafts Session on, "Dinger Zhong material for crystal snuff bottle painted inside eight break plans" to 44.5824 million price. In recent years the market since 2004 Crystal rose, the price doubled over 2001 years ago, nearly 10 fold, so many people interested.
However, just practicing Tan, general manager, said the auction house, crystal jewelry stones in jewelry supplier are low price and diamonds, jade can not compare, but also the most expensive 100 to 200 yuan / tablets Moreover, the market is too big, as the great significance of consumer goods in the collection, collection of crystal jewelry from an investment perspective there is not much sense. But the craft and it is different, because the craft of quality, design features of both, the added value of its process design to bring greater value in the material.
Late products with high volume
Sun Yat-sen, director of Gem Identification Research Professor Qiu Zhi force, like crystal collectors can focus on a specific historical antique crystal and fine processing technology of modern crystal.
Crystal observed in recent years, auction auction market transactions can be found in the top 10, closing auction more crystal products for the late Qing period, only three articles for the Qianlong period, a modern craft. Before 5 auction bid of 100 million yuan are modern crafts "Crystal Treasures of China gemstone wholesalerwithin 12 famous officials cum painting snuff (12)" No. 6, sold for 935,000 yuan. Thus, in addition to the historical, the process is also crucial determinants of the price.
Crystal VS Glass: Professor Qiu Zhi force "4 Tips"
Observation of appearance: natural crystal Crystal Clear, moisture, surface seems to be a thin layer of oil color, white crystal white hair was blue; and man-made crystal is dry and white look.
Yong Shounie touch: cool high natural crystal, with greasy feeling; and man-made crystal is no such feeling.
Determine the hardness: the hardness of natural than man-made crystal glass, crystal and higher, two each program, will find the problem.
View color: natural crystal is not uniform in color, while the man-made crystal or glass color consistency and purity
Crystal VS Synthetic Crystal: Guangdong Institute of Geology, Gems Xiang Yin Biao "three secrets"
Natural crystal in the little blue or bright yellow-green varieties. Therefore, to see such a variety essentially synthetic.
For other colors of the color crystal identification can be a layer of white mat on the desktop, so to see if the color is uneven samples (ribbon), there may be a natural crystal. The color is not particularly uniform can be concluded that the natural crystal.
If you find crystal china jewelry wholesalers in the "seed" (six-cylinder of small crystals, but not necessarily fully see all the sections) can determine the synthetic crystal. These kinds of crystal are only 1mm ~ 2mm, but not the same as the color on both sides, very hard to tell.
Collection Tips
Watered with ordinary cleaning fluid after the hand-washing with a soft brush or crystal, then rinse with water.
Within half an hour after cleaning with a soft cloth to dry, or dry water will stay on the waterlines in the crystal.
If you want to make crystal lighter can be placed in the sun after washing drying 2 to 3 hours after the crystal will absorb sunlight brighter.

The Healing Energy of Crystals and Stones
Our universe is one of vibrations. Absolutely everything (including us) vibrates at a molecular level! In some objects, these vibrations tend to cancel one another due to the chaotic structure of their atoms. But other things, like crystals, have structures that allow these vibrations to add together.
This addition of vibrations due to the structure of objects like crystals cause them to amplify and radiate this energy of vibration. These vibrations are subtle, but they can be used to help you handle many of life's everyday problems.
Stones and crystals each have a unique structure and composition. This gives each one a unique vibration rate and quality.
At the heart of a crystal is the atom and its component parts. An atom is dynamic, consisting of particles rotating around a centre in constant motion. So, although a crystal may look outwardly serene, it is actually a seething molecular mass vibrating at a certain frequency. This is what gives a crystal its energy.
Your body is made of the same elements found in stones and crystals. Your body and its internal organs is a collection of parts, each with a specific structure (on a chemical level), each made up of different combinations of carbon, hydrogen and other elements. Because of its structure and composition, each part of your body vibrates and emits energy into the space around it. If you could see these vibrations which are very high frequency you would see them as an energy body that extended well beyond your physical one. Impurities within your body alter these vibrations, adding chaotic elements that distort your energy body. These distortions can starve some areas of your physical body, preventing them from getting the correct vibrational energy that keeps them operating in harmony with the rest of the parts that make up your physical self.
Since stones and crystals vibrate and emit pure, strong vibrations at constant rates, they can be used to help eliminate distortions and restore proper balance, leading to better overall physical, mental and spiritual well being. Each stone and crystal emits subtle vibrations that influence a specific area of your body. Matching the stone or crystal to its specific use allows you to get the most benefit from these natural gifts of harmony.
Scientific evidence about the potential health benefits and risks associated with stones and crystals is hard to come by, but crystals and stones have been used for thousands and thousands of years. This would seem to indicate not only their safety, but also their effectiveness. However, always seek medical attention from a qualified medical or mental health worker, or a Natural Health Practitioner, if you suspect you have a serious problem. The energies radiated from crystals and gems are subtle, and work over time.
Why and how to choose a stone or crystal
Crystals and stones have been used since the dawn of civilization. They can be used to influence our moods, our health, our personal development, our wealth, our environment and our relationships. If you are trying to choose a crystal for a specific reason, then focus on that reason and allow your intuition to choose the right crystals. If it's for someone else, focus on that person.
The one you need will let you know, you will sense it – it might "catch your eye", be a "must have", "feel right" when you hold it, or you could even hear, taste or smell something that'll let you know. There may also be strong pulsing in your hand when you hold it.
Choosing crystals is mainly about using your intuition and using your six senses as an extension of that intuition. Remember that crystals will choose you as much as you choose them! Enjoy them and remember to thank them too!
Dedicating and Programming Your Crystals
Crystals need to be dedicated to the purpose for which you use them. Dedicate a new crystal as soon as you have cleansed it. This focuses the energy.
Hold the crystal in your hands. Picture light surrounding it. If you find this difficult, hold your hands in front of a light source. Say out loud: "I dedicate this crystal to the highest good of all. May it be used in light and love". Reiki practitioners can Reiki their crystals in order to cleanse them.
To program your crystal, hold it. Let yourself be open to higher guidance. Consider the purpose for which you wish to use it. Be specific. If you want to attract love, describe exactly what kind of love you are looking for. If you are seeking healing, say precisely for which condition and what you want to happen. When you have formulated your program, attune to the crystal. Ensure that this is exactly the right crystal for the purpose. When you are totally in tune, say out loud: "I program this crystal for {your purpose}".
Then put the crystal in a place where you will see it frequently or keep it in your pocket. It can be helpful to hold it two or three times a day, or more. You may need to repeat the programming several times.
When not in use, wrap your crystals in a silk/velvet scarf, store in a pouch or keep on a bed of salt.
Using stones and crystals
Your commitment to the crystal is part of the healing process. Let the crystal do the work for you. It is best not to wear more than two stones at any one time if you are new to crystal healing, as many people find the effects too distracting. The length of time to obtain the effects desired will depend on the quality of the crystal (size, colour, energy charge), location of wear, duration, and the crystal's appropriateness to your healing. Some crystals are better suited to healing the overall problem which underlies the symptoms, than to just treating superficial symptoms. Select your crystal with an honest outlook on the real problem.
Wearing crystals or simply having one in close proximity (carrying one in your pocket or placing one on your night table or under your pillow) can boost your energy and allow them to impart their healing vibrations to your environment. You can also grid crystals around your home or bed, do crystal layouts or make gem elixirs and essences. Remember to program your crystals before use.
Rotating a crystal wand on the skin, or simply placing an appropriate stone on the affected area causes compression which releases a focused beam of vibrations to the affected organ beneath.
Also, meditating with a crystal is one of the easiest ways to attune to its energy.
Cleaning and caring for stones
Crystals and stones can pick up or absorb vibrations not in harmony with their natural rate or quality. They can also retain memories of the thoughts and feelings of those that come in contact with them. Because of this, it is recommended that all stones and crystals be cleansed on a regular basis. You'll know it's time when the stone's energy seems to have diminished or its energy feels "tired".
There are many ways you can do this. The easiest for most people is to simply place the stone or crystal in direct sunlight for a few hours. Sunlight is the colors of light, each color having a different vibration rate. This bombardment of energy will strip away the lingering energies that don't belong there, washing them away to leave only those energies produced by the structure of the crystal or stone itself. Sunlight can fade some stones, however, such as Amethyst, Aventurine, Citrine, Fluorite, Rose Quartz and Smokey Quartz.
Another way is to bury them in the earth. The earth produces vibrational energies in large amounts due to the abundance of moving electrons in its component parts. This energy covers a range of frequencies beyond what the eye can see, with each of the elements producing its own "tone" or vibration rate. Remember to mark where you bury them so you can find them again! Using a bag would help too. This vibration washes away the negative energies and leaves only the energies of the stone or crystal itself. Keep your stones and crystals buried for at least 2 or 3 days.
Another alternative is to put coarse sea salt in a small container and bury the stone for between 7-24 hours. Don't use salt water as prolonged use can damage softer stones. You can also keep your stones on a bed of salt when not in use. Sprinkling in a bit of tobacco will help energize the salt.
Placing your crystals and stones in a running stream can cleanse them too. You can also blow with force on your stone or crystal to release negative energy.
Citrine and Kyanite can also be used to clean your stones and crystals. They are the only two self-cleaning crystals and stones. You can place your stones on them, as well as Selenite, or Apophylite or Amethyst clusters for approx. two hours and they will emerge completely energized.
Other methods include using the light of a full moon, a bell, gong or tuning fork, running water (except stones like Selenite and Desert Rose which will melt) a candle, incense or smudge.
Take care of your stones and crystals - and they'll take care of you!
