Coiling method of lobular rosewood bracelets;
1, rosewood beads should be oil-free and wax-free before they are put on the plate. Many manufacturers put a layer of transparent wax on the beads in order to make them look good when polishing them for the last time before leaving the factory. Adding this layer of wax is not conducive to the play of beads. Therefore, if you want lobular rosewood beads to produce good results in the future, you should ask the merchant to give you lobular rosewood beads without waxing and oiling at the beginning of the purchase. If the lobular rosewood beads have been waxed, you should remove the oil wax before you offer them.
2. The lobular rosewood bead bracelet should be coiled with soft cotton gloves for one week. When you get the new beads, don't rush to put on the lobular rosewood bead bracelet, but use soft cotton gloves for a week, about an hour a day, in order to get rid of the dirt on the surface of the beads, which is also equivalent to polishing the beads again by hand. At first, lobular rosewood beads will dye gloves red, which is a normal phenomenon. One of the characteristics of lobular rosewood is that it can be dyed, and it was also one of the dyes in India in ancient times. Not in a few days.
3, get started for a week. After a week of putting gloves on the lobular rosewood beads bracelet, the transition stage is over and you can get started. Make sure that your hands are clean and dry, but not wet, before each use. By the way, at any time, the lobular rosewood beads should not be damp or wet. If they get wet, wipe them off with absorbent paper as soon as possible.
4. Leave it for a week. After the first few steps of setting beads, the patina is initially formed. It should be left for about a week, so as to let the patina naturally harden and dry, and then cultivate the patina in this way.
5. Cycle the third and fourth steps. Repeat the third and fourth steps for about five times each, so that it will take about three months. At this time, your lobular rosewood beads must have obvious patina, flashing fluorescent light, moist tentacles and full of spirituality.
How can lobular rosewood keep its original color?
Generally speaking, if the bracelets are often played, the color will become darker in a month or two. At the beginning, the ruddy color will become purple. After a year, the rosewood bracelets will basically appear purple-black, and they will not change color. If the playing effect is good, they will look very beautiful and purple-bright, especially the rosewood bracelets with Venus, which is even more dazzling in the contrast of purple and black. This is also why people play. However, turnips and greens have their own tastes. Some people like the original color of rosewood and think it is bright and ruddy. Although we can't prevent the rosewood bracelets from turning purple and black, we can try to slow down the time when the rosewood beads change color, such as playing with the hands less, sealing them when not wearing them and so on.
