Nā ʻano turquoise

ʻO ka manawa pinepine, i ke koho ʻana i nā mea nani me ka turquoise, ke kū nei ka mea kūʻai aku i ka nīnau: "No ke aha, me nā hōʻailona like, ʻokoʻa loa ke kumukūʻai o ka pōhaku?". ʻO ka mea he nui nā ʻano mineral i ʻokoʻa loa ke kumu. Ma ke ʻano he lula, pono e hōʻike ka tag i ke ʻano o kahi gem. I kēia hihia, pono ka mea kūʻai aku i nā palapala hōʻoia a me nā palapala kūpono. I mea e hoʻomaopopo ai i ka liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi i hiki iā ʻoe ke hana, manaʻo mākou e noʻonoʻo ʻoe i ke ʻano o ka turquoise a me nā ʻano ʻokoʻa o kēlā me kēia ʻano.

He aha ka turquoise?

I kēia lā, i loko o nā hale kūʻai nani, hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i nā turquoise ʻē aʻe. No ke aha kēia hana? ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ua ʻike mau ʻia ka turquoise e ka maʻalahi o ka hana ʻana, ʻoiai e noʻonoʻo ana i ka hana ʻana me ka pōhaku ʻaʻole maʻalahi loa. Hana ʻia kahi hana maʻemaʻe a paʻakikī i ka gem, kahi e manaʻo ai e mālama i ke ʻano kumu o ka mineral. I kekahi manawa, pono e "hoʻokalakupua" nā mea nani i mea e ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi. ʻO ia ke kumu i loaʻa ai nā ʻano ʻano pōhaku like ʻole ma nā papa.

kūlohelohe a hana ʻia

Loaʻa kēia i nā kristal kūlohelohe āpau i ke ʻano i hana ʻia e ke ʻano. ʻAʻole i hoʻokomo ʻia kēlā mau minerala i kahi kala hou a i ʻole impregnation. No nā mea nani, koho wale ʻia nā hiʻohiʻona kiʻekiʻe loa, nona ka paʻakikī kiʻekiʻe a me ka ikaika. ʻO nā mea a pau i hana ʻia e ka poʻe jewelers me ka pōhaku, ʻoki liʻiliʻi wale nō. E like me ke kānāwai, he cabochon.

ʻO nā ʻano turquoise a pau, ʻo kēia ka mea kūʻai nui loa. No laila, inā makemake ʻoe e kūʻai i kahi pōhaku kūlohelohe i loaʻa i ke ʻano, a laila pono ʻoe e ʻimi wale i nā mea nani me ke kumukūʻai kiʻekiʻe.

Hoʻoikaika ʻia (cemented) kūlohelohe

ʻO kēia turquoise i manaʻo ʻia he pōhaku maikaʻi. No ia e koho i nā pōhaku palupalu a porous. I mea e mālama ai i nā ʻano o ka mineral no ka manawa lōʻihi, ua hoʻopili ʻia me nā huila kūikawā e hoʻoikaika ai i ka pōhaku a hoʻonui i ka lole. Ma kahi o ka ikaika, kōkua pū ka impregnations i ka mālama ʻana i ka malu o ka gem. Inā hiki i ka turquoise kūlohelohe ke nalowale i kona kala i ka manawa a i ʻole ma muli o kekahi ʻano, a laila ʻaʻole e hoʻololi ka turquoise paʻa i kona malu, e paʻa ana i kona kala uliuli no ka manawa lōʻihi.

ʻAʻole hiki ke kapa ʻia kēia ʻano he hoʻopunipuni, no ka mea, ua hana ʻia mai ka pōhaku maoli, ʻoiai he kanaka i hoʻomaikaʻi iki ʻia. Aia kekahi mau pōʻino o ia ʻano? Manaʻo wau ʻaʻole. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻaʻole e nalowale ka mineral i kona kala, ʻaʻole like me ka mea maoli, hiki ʻole ke hoʻokomo i nā minus.

Kūlohelohe maoli

Ua like kēia ʻano turquoise me ka pōhaku paʻakikī. ʻO ka ʻokoʻa wale nō, ʻo ia ka mea i hoʻopili pinepine ʻia i mea e loaʻa ai kahi malu a ʻoi aku ka saturated. I ka manawa like, mālama ka gem i kona mau waiwai a me kona ʻano. ʻAʻole paha e hiki ke hoʻokaʻawale i kēlā mau hiʻohiʻona mai nā mea kūlohelohe "ma ka maka". No ka hana ʻana i kēia, pono ʻoe e hoʻopili i nā kikowaena kūikawā kahi e hana ai nā loea me ka mineral a hoʻoholo i kā lākou hoʻoholo.

ʻO ka ʻokoʻa wale nō e hiki ke "paʻi" ʻo ia ka ʻulaʻula uliuli ʻole. ʻO ia mau pōhaku e "puhi" maoli, mahalo i nā kala kūikawā. Eia hou, ʻaʻole hiki ke kapa ʻia kēlā mau pōhaku he hoʻopunipuni, no ka mea, ua hoʻohana ʻia ka turquoise maoli e hana ai. Eia kekahi, ua hana ʻia lākou mai nā minerala kiʻekiʻe a ua hoʻāʻo pono ʻia no ka ikaika a me ka maikaʻi.

Hana hou ʻia (paʻi ʻia)

I ka hana ʻana i nā pōhaku maoli, e mau ana kekahi ʻano ʻōpala. He ʻōpala liʻiliʻi a i ʻole ka lepo i hana ʻia i ka wā o ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana i kahi pōhaku maoli. ʻO kēia placer ka mea e hana ai i kahi mineral paʻi. Ua hōʻiliʻiliʻia, hui pū me nā pūhui kūikawā, paʻiʻia a hanaʻia. Eia kekahi, hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ka turquoise haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa, ʻaʻole kūpono no ka ʻoki ʻana a i ʻole ka liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi. Hoʻopili ʻia lākou i ka pauka, hui pū ʻia me nā mea hoʻohui, paʻi ʻia a loaʻa nā ʻāpana āpau o ka mineral.

Loaʻa pinepine ʻia ka pōhaku paʻi ʻia ma nā papa o nā hale kūʻai nani. Akā ʻaʻole hiki ke kapa ʻia kēlā mau hiʻohiʻona he artificial a hoʻopunipuni paha. ʻO kēia ka turquoise kūlohelohe like, i hoʻomaikaʻi wale ʻia ma ke ʻano o ka hana a me ke ʻano.

ʻO ke ʻano hana

ʻO kahi hōʻailona synthetic he mineral i ulu ʻia ma ka hale hana. ʻO ke kanaka wale nō ke hoʻomalu i ke kaʻina hana a ʻaʻohe mea pili i ke ʻano. Loaʻa i kahi pōhaku i hana ʻia i nā hiʻohiʻona a pau o kahi mea maoli, ʻo ka ʻokoʻa wale nō ma ke kumu. Hoʻomalu ʻia ka ulu ʻana o ka kristal e nā limahana limahana a nānā pono ʻia kēlā me kēia pae. I ka manawa like, ʻaʻole kala ʻia ka turquoise synthetic. Mahalo i ka ʻenehana kiʻekiʻe, ua hiki ke loaʻa i kahi analogue piha o ka turquoise, mai ke kala i nā haumia, inclusions a me ka hoʻolālā.

He aha nā kala turquoise

ʻO ka waihoʻoluʻu e hilinaʻi nui ana i ka waihona. Kūlike ʻole i ka manaʻo kaulana ʻo ka turquoise kūlohelohe he ʻulaʻula uliuli ʻulaʻula, pono e hoʻomaopopo ʻia ʻaʻole kēia wale ke kala e hiki ai ke kala ʻia ka mineral. Aia kekahi mau pōhaku keʻokeʻo, ʻōmaʻomaʻo, ʻeleʻele, melemele a ʻeleʻele hoʻi.

ʻO ke kala pōhaku maʻamau, ʻoiaʻiʻo, uliuli a i ʻole turquoise wale nō. Eia kekahi, hiki ke ʻokoʻa nā ʻano hiʻona ma ka turquoise i ka saturation a me ke kala. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ma waho aʻe o nā kaha ʻeleʻele ma luna o ka pōhaku, hiki i kekahi ke hoʻokaʻawale i ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo, uliuli, ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo.
