Those predecessors about lapis lazuli

青金石

The position of lapis lazuli in China has always been in a relatively embarrassing state. In ancient times, the emperor was very important to the lapis lazuli. He thought that this is the color of the sky. When the sacrifice of the heavens, the green gold will be worn. However, it is a well-known thing that the Chinese people have the most respect for jade since ancient times. The civilians have invented a porcelain like jade because they can’t afford jade. I have never heard of anyone who invented a substitute for the worship of Qingjin. Modern people's eyes are much wider than the ancients. The diamonds that Westerners love are the heart of Chinese women. Everyone is proud of being affordable and able to afford large diamonds. At the same time, some people with "old style" insist on the right. The love of white jade and jade. In the process of the times, crystal, agate, tourmaline and other small gems gradually surfaced, and the situation has risen and fallen. Qingjin has fluctuated with the wind in the popular wave, and now it is also famous. In the Panjiayuan flea market, there are many booths for buying green gold. There are also many people watching Qingjin and Dai Qingjin. However, how many of these people really understand the green gold, it is difficult to say. It is observed that many people are because "Qing Jin is "still pretty, very cheap", so "with play."

It is said that Qingjin is a kind of gem that is favored by the emperor. People have a profound cultural heritage. Mr. Zhang Hongjun, the founder of modern archaeological geological history in China, mentioned in the book Shiya in 1921 that China had applied lapis lazuli as early as 4,000 years ago. The oldest lapis lazuli product excavated in China was unearthed from the tomb of Zenghou Yi in the Spring and Autumn Period. In addition, China’s Yuejun Sword was also unearthed in the Spring and Autumn Period, which was inlaid with green gold and green pine. 4000 years! Are you still embarrassed to say that it is a jewel that has "raised in recent years"?

The ancients once called Qingjin "glazed", and the Eastern Jin Dynasty Wang Jia's "Record of the Five Volumes" contained: The First Emperor was the home, and the glass and the treasure were the turtles. This record shows that the lapis lazuli of the heavens is more important to the Emperor. In the Han Dynasty, the carving process of lapis lazuli has reached a fairly high level. In 1969, Xuzhou Donghan Pengcheng Jing Wang Liu Gong’s tomb unearthed a gold-plated treasure-shaped animal-shaped box, 10 cm high and 25 cm long. The box is made of a monster, and it is made of red coral, turquoise and lapis lazuli. There are records of true images. From these records and cultural relics, it can be seen that although Qingjin is not expensive and extremely valuable, it can be regarded as a gem with a face that can enter and exit the royal and noble families.

During the Southern and Northern Dynasties and the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the utilization rate of Qingjin continued to rise. The accessories and handicrafts with the accessories of Qingjin were more and more in the Qing Dynasty, and the Qingjin was reused again. There are records in the Palace Museum: the emperor used the Pearl to the East Pearl for one hundred and eight, the Buddha head, the memory, the back cloud, the size of the treasures and miscellaneous ornaments are appropriate, the ceremony ceremony. However, Haotian is decorated with lapis lazuli, and the beads are used for honey, the corals for the Asahi, and the turquoise for the moon. When the emperor is really not easy, when he worships the heavens, he is afraid that he will not lose his rituals. He will hang a large string of stones on his neck, and he will not lift it. In any case, there will be no possibility of blasphemy.

Compared with China, lapis lazuli may have a higher status in ancient Egypt and Babylon. In the pre-Egypt era of Egypt before 3100 BC, lapis lazuli products have appeared. The famous "cursed" Tutankhamun pharaoh's tomb has many lapis lazuli and rubies. The crowns, earrings, ornaments, chest ornaments, bracelets, rings and other jewels are decorated with gems such as lapis lazuli; A large number of lapis lazuli is also set on beetle ornaments, pendants and household items. And the Egyptian generation of Cleopatra likes lapis lazuli to make up the eyelashes. The lapis lazuli is often an important item on the tribute to Egypt and one of the important gifts that the Babylonian king gave to the Egyptian king. In reporting gold and silver treasures plundered from defeated countries, lapis lazuli is often listed in front of gold and other valuables.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to the aesthetic value, people have also developed the medicinal value of green gold. The ancient Egyptians believed that lapis lazuli was a cure for depression and a good medicine called "three-day malaria." Although I don't know what kind of disease the latter is, the lapis lazuli lets the ancients live a life where you have a disease and I have a medicine. It really should be taken a high look.

Xiaobian speaks two sentences:

Sometimes think about it, such a gem, you wear it, maybe no one can see how much he wears than others. A rhinestone and a drill can be fooled by tens of thousands of people with a fine grinding technique. A high imitation plastic and amber are similar. The insider must also reach into the scalp and apply some oil. Grab it up and see if it sticks. When people wear gems, what are they pursuing in addition to pursuing an aesthetically pleasing effect? In addition to the so-called "energy buried in the gem" can attract a group of buyers who love to pass the heart, why do people bring real goods? In fact, I don't know, probably still in the words of "cultural heritage". These four words are very important. It makes the chestnut face and the cichlids far away from the sky stand and sell for a good price. It locks the diamonds and love, and guards the illusory vows forever; he makes the cheap big mountain into a candied fruit with a "yearly taste", and the children hold it on the stage of the Spring Festival Evening, year after year. In the year, it made many people believe that the lapis lazuli is really in the sky, so that I can only read the article by people who can only rely on the pen to eat.
