It sits at the pink-red end of the Nanhong range with a matte-leaning finish, rather than the saturated persimmon red with a polished face. Both are Nanhong; this is the rarer presentation. Is the color natural? Nanhong takes its red from iron content within the stone rather than a surface treatment. How to spot dyed material is covered in Nanhong agate vs carnelian.
