What is the meaning of "old type"?

Wenzhuang old type means a small change in the curvature between barrel beads and round beads.

Many people like the old type, but they can't tell why. In fact, it is also because the change is really too subtle, do not look closely, simply do not notice, it changes is actually the curvature.

Unlike the hard straight lines of barrel beads, old type beads require every intersecting surface to be smooth and perfectly articulated. No matter which angle you look at it, you can clearly see the smooth curved lines outlining the entire bead pattern view is very full and smooth.

Cultural circle in the first few years of time, strings, beads go more round beads and barrel beads, and the old type of beads in the past few years appeared and hot, although the old type of just round beads and barrel beads in the body type of the slight change, but from this we can see the whole circle of the cultural circle of the great innovation.

Nowadays more and more players begin to like the old type beads, but the reason why they like it, the people really can't answer out, in fact, the main reason why the old type beads are popular is because of the curvature is a small change.

Compared with the straight lines of barrel beads and the absolute lines of round beads, the old-type beads have a hard temperament in the middle of the barrel beads under the perfect excess of the just surface, which makes the whole old-type look full, dexterous and rich in aesthetics.

The shape of the old beads mainly comes from the production of coconut palm, coconut palm itself is the raw material of the barrel column shape, in the processing of the old above has this inherent advantage, as long as the transition of a few surfaces for a little polishing can be.

While round beads have always been an enduring form, with the progress of the times, people are demanding more and more aesthetics and regularity, and with the expansion of the market, the production of all kinds of rare stones is also declining.

The old type can save the loss of raw materials than round beads. Originally, it may take three to four times the gram weight of the bead to make a raw stone, but to make the old type of bead, it may be possible to make the raw stone with twice the gram weight.

With the continuous development of craft technology in the past few years, the old type of beads has also become a traditional bead form, straight cut, no phase, a dull and other shapes have become the most popular trend, people for the pursuit of trends is also more and more emphasis on personalization and freshness.

It is not difficult to find that these new shapes are in the subtraction rather than addition, round beads and barrel beads are still the most material-consuming shapes, the old type and straight cut is mainly for the package material, no phase and the A Dull is in the flawed raw materials on the new processing and creation, so as to ensure that the processor's interests will not be lost because of the limitations of the shape.

Taking turquoise as an example, a piece of turquoise raw stone after peeling off the outer skin, the first consideration is to be able to do round beads, if the weight of the raw stone is too much down is not worth doing round beads, the old type and straight cut is to protect the weight of the finished product is a good choice.

If the turquoise processing appears after the white, can be made into a non-phase bead or the type of passion seed, if in the case of both white and iron line, made into the A Dull, dragon beads are a good way to preserve the capital not only will be able to remove the white, iron line, but also ensure that turquoise weight of the finished product, the purchase of their own raw stone and processing fees can guarantee recovery.

In the field of literature, a piece of literature to do more work on behalf of the raw material quality is more general, and really good material is directly used to do the simplest modeling, because only this can highlight the quality of raw material advantages.
