Natural Nanhong Agate: Nanhong agate is a mineral formed during volcanic eruptions. Due to the impact of high temperature and pressure, Nanhong agate inevitably develops cracks during its formation. Hence, some say, "No cracks, no Nanhong." As the old saying goes, "Nine out of ten Nanhong have cracks," so linear marks, layers, small dots, and minor cracks formed by the inherent patterns are not flaws. Natural Nanhong agate is one of the Seven Treasures of Buddhism, possessing the efficacy of warding off evil and protecting the wearer. It is also one of the most health-beneficial gemstones. Agate contains natural minerals, and prolonged wear of Nanhong jewelry is believed to nourish the five internal organs, calm the spirit, beautify the skin, and offer significant health benefits. **Li Fu** Scales shedding starlight onto the pond I leap over the ripples in your eyes Each flick of the tail A gentle knock on the door of destiny May this touch of vermilion Swim into your dreams Carrying blessings of the entire spring **About the Product** The piece features natural ice-veined Nanhong with distinct cinnabar dots and floral patterns in varying shades of persimmon red.

Avoid Collisions: Nanhong, being a type of agate, has high density and hardness but low brittleness and wear resistance. Therefore, avoid storing it with metal items and prevent collisions. 2. Avoid Perfume and Oils: Try to avoid contact with perfumes, oily substances, and chemicals to prevent erosion and maintain color vibrancy. 3. Temperature Sensitivity: Avoid heat sources and environments with significant temperature fluctuations. High temperatures, prolonged exposure to sunlight, and rapid temperature changes can lead to cracking. 4. Cleaning: Jewelry worn or displayed for extended periods may accumulate oil, dust, and dirt. For simple dust, gently wipe with a soft cloth or a small soft brush. For light soiling, rinsing with clean water is usually sufficient. For heavier oil stains, gently scrub with warm, diluted soapy water or soak in a prepared saltwater solution. After cleaning, allow to air dry in a cool place or wipe with a soft cloth. 5. Storage: When not wearing jewelry for a long time, store it in a sealed bag. A small amount of maintenance oil or olive oil can be applied.
