During the patina - developing process, the Buddhist beads show unique changes:
-
First Week: The fluorescence gradually becomes transparent, initially revealing a 灵动 (agile) luster.
-
Second Week: The color quietly transitions, showing ancient - style hues like golden yellow, purple - yellow and even ebony black.
-
After About a Month: There is a slight sticky resistance on the surface, and the patina starts to form initially, with the texture upgraded.
-
After Three Months: The patina is stable, and the color becomes deeper and deeper, fully showing the spirituality accumulated over time.
To keep the Buddhist beads beautiful for a long time, proper maintenance is needed:
-
Prevent collisions and drops to avoid physical damage.
-
Store in a jewelry box/bag when not in use to isolate dust and moisture.
-
Keep away from heat sources (such as 暴晒 (exposure to the sun), stoves, etc.), perfume and chemical agents to prevent material deterioration.
-
Clean and maintain regularly to keep the surface clean.
