In the past, gold was not only a trading currency, but also a material for jewelry collections, but those who can afford gold jewelry are not rich and expensive.
Why do Chinese people like gold so much? There are roughly three reasons for this -
1. The nature of gold is stable and it is difficult to change color.
2, the price of gold is relatively stable, although it will not rise, but it will not fall, compare value.
3. The color of gold is rich and rich, and it is a symbol of wealth.
However, because the nature of gold itself is too stable, the gold that existed decades ago or even hundreds of years ago still exists well. This kind of gold is the old gold we are looking for.
First, the new gold vs old gold, are you clear?
1. Old gold toughness, strong new gold, high hardness
The hardness of gold is only 2~3, which is very soft, so it is often deformed by wearing it.
Foreign gold gold coins, look at the map will know very soft
Ancient goldsmiths often used the soil method of biting the teeth to identify the true and false of gold - because of the low hardness, the real gold bite can see the tooth print. If there is no tooth print, it means that it is mixed with impurities. However, they all say that it is a soil method and cannot be 100% believed.
In this case... teeth biting is not acceptable. After all, today's gold medals are not real gold.
Because the old gold is completed after the processing, there is one more process, called "tempering." Tempering is to reduce the hardness of gold, enhance the toughness and ductility, which is more conducive to the production of rich and varied gold jewelry in the past when the technological level is not developed.
Modern jewelry processing technology is getting higher and higher, completely free from the constraints of toughness, but more inclined to increase the hardness of gold, which is conducive to wearing.
Therefore, there is now a new technology called 3D Hard Gold, which is an emerging variety produced by a special process. Simply put, the ionic structure of gold is destroyed during the production process, making the hardness extremely high and not easily deformed. And damage, the hardness can reach 4 times of ordinary gold.
Because 3D hard gold is generally hollow, so the weight is light, it looks large, and the style is rich; the disadvantage is that it is expensive, and does not have the function of maintaining value, the merchant is not willing to recycle 3D hard gold, can only be worn as jewelry.
2, the old gold color is yellow, the new gold is strong
In the past, in order to make the color of gold look better, the gold shop will use some turmeric powder to color the processed gold jewelry. Therefore, comparing the old gold with the new gold, the old gold will be more yellow.
Old gold is very yellow in color
In the aesthetics of modern people, the glittering visual effect of the new gold is more deeply rooted than the yellow of the old gold. Therefore, after the new gold is processed, polishing becomes an indispensable process.
New gold pays more attention to gloss
In addition, after years of wearing the old gold, which has been yellowed, the surface will be oxidized to form a layer of patina, which is worse than the new gold. However, some people think that such old gold is as valuable as antiques. What do you think?
3 old gold is not adulterated, new gold is high purity
To be honest, the purification technology of gold is now much higher than before. The new gold on the market, as long as it meets the "foot gold" standard, is of high purity.
However, the purification technology is high, and the adulteration technology is also high. Now many businesses will do other things into the gold, so it is often found that the sampling is unqualified. At this point, the old gold can not be easily adulterated, it is real gold.
Second, is gold the older and more valuable?
In China, as long as a certain thing exceeds a certain "age", it becomes an antique. Even if it is not worth the money, it will become valuable after a hundred years. Will old gold be like this?
Although old gold does not have the bright luster of new gold, it may not have such high purity, but its real value lies in its craft and history. After the precipitation and polishing of time, the old gold shows a different beauty in front of the world. The value given by this history is unmatched by the new gold. If the process of an old gold is very good, its value is much higher than its own material.
If you finally decide to trade in the old, then you have to deal with the problem of gold recycling, remember the following three points, to avoid being deceived:
1, clever words wear and wear, it is a "eight two scales" scam
The profiteer first uses the high price as a bait to attract you to hook, and then will do the hands and feet on the scale, commonly known as "eight two scales", that is, the weight of the merchant is lighter than the actual weight, if the consumer is not clear about the gold of his gold It is very easy to be deceived. If you raise a question, he will continue to deceive on the grounds of wear and tear.
In fact, the good ductility and stability of gold, even after thousands of years can still be intact, and the degree of wear caused by wearing is minimal, generally not more than 0.1 grams. In addition, some unscrupulous merchants will not be able to deduct the corresponding fees on the grounds that there is no invoice for the gold ornaments.
2, "washing gold" is an upgraded version of the scam
The use of chemical reagents to clean gold is the most common way for profiteers to steal gold. Even if they operate in front of consumers, they will steal gold without knowing it.
3, try to choose the formal channel, Mo greedy and small profits are deceived
At present, the “golden acquisition†shops on the street are mostly unlicensed, and they will use high prices to attract you to pick up the hooks. Therefore, choosing a regular recycling channel can avoid being deceived to the greatest extent.
So, how to buy gold jewelry?
If you are a person who pursues the old-fashioned sense of history, then it is recommended that you can collect old gold, and there will be a lot of room for appreciation in the future;
If you are a person who loves new things, then you still buy new gold, the style is rich and varied, and the choice is wide;
If you think gold is too tacky, then you can choose platinum or K gold, the color is beautiful and stylish, and it is pleasing to the eye.
