Instead, it is placed in an airtight vacuum packaging bag, and it will turn yellow-brown over time. The old Chen that has been placed for a long time, the water evaporates, which makes the stars and moons more stable. It is naturally oxidized, and it is not easy to get flowers and porcelain hanging due to improper maintenance.

Many people will sell weathered seeds as old seeds, or some people in the market will "fry" Xingyue Bodhi as Chen seeds, how should Chen Zi Xingyue Bodhi distinguish between true and false? It can be observed from the following two directions. First, after unpacking and before starting to play, do you feel oily? If there is oily, it may be fried seeds.

Because the old seeds are slowly oxidized and discolored in the sealed bag, but they have not been played, so there will be no patina phenomenon. Second, you can observe whether the brightness of the old seeds is gray. If it is gray, it is probably the weathered seeds that have not been sealed in the bag and are directly exposed to the air.

Yinpi Xingyue Bodhizi is more oily than Shunbai Xingyue and Chenzi Xingyue in pantou. Generally, the original ecology has the fastest discoloration and patina, but there is one thing to pay attention to, because the original ecology itself is relatively oily and the oil type of each seed is different, so it is easier to check the color difference. It can be seen from the original ecology in the picture that the color change is relatively heavy, which is the place where the oily area is relatively large.
