East China Sea Crystal City panning crystals

Donghai Crystal City is the largest and most functional crystal professional market in China and the world, with a construction area of 450,000 square meters and more than 7,000 merchants. The types of crystals here are very complete, whether it is the style and category, many foreign crystal operators are from here to take the goods to purchase, and the crystals here are mainly high-quality products.

One is the rough stone area, if you want to buy high-quality rough ore, you can go to the rough stone area on the first floor of Hall 1, where there are crystal gem ores from all over the world and amethyst geodes that everyone likes. There is also a counter area on the third floor. The counter area is a number of small counters connected together, and each merchant operates one or two small counters, like a farmer's market. Originally, it was an area for some small businesses to operate, but now it is the best place in the venue, just like a pedestrian street with shops on both sides, but the stalls in the middle are the most popular for everyone to visit, and many locals take their goods from the counter area. There are counter areas on the third floor of Hall 1 and Hall 2, which is a must-visit place for visiting Crystal City.

East China Sea Characteristic Crystal Bazaar

As a special market in the East China Sea, this is a must-visit place for every crystal enthusiast. Donghai is the crystal capital, and there are hundreds of thousands of local crystal-related practitioners, and this crystal market is a gathering for crystal practitioners to communicate. If the East China Sea Crystal City is the most exposed and high-profile industry tree in the crystal industry, then the crystal market is the root of the tree that is rarely seen under this big tree. Let's give you a detailed introduction to the East China Sea Crystal Market.

The East China Sea Crystal Bazaar is not only available for one or two days, nor is it a fixed place, but it is held in a different place every day. To sum up, five places take turns to meet this big set, and the time is set according to the lunar calendar.

We will summarize the location and time of these five places and the characteristics of each large set

Such a crystal market is the same as our local farmers' market and seafood market, and the crystal merchants in the East China Sea bring their crystals to the market, directly in the form of the most direct and simple stalls. The stall owner looks at the asking price and the buyer bargains on the spot. Such a large market is not only popular with foreign crystal diggers, but also local crystal processing merchants will also come to the market to buy goods. Among the five crystal markets, the crystal square next to the crystal city is the largest, and it is also a crystal market that must be visited by people who come to the East China Sea.

According to the type of booth, the crystal market of Taojing Plaza can be roughly divided into five areas, namely:

In the rough stone area, the booth number starts with Y

In the basin area, the booth number starts with P

In the crystal pillar area, the booth number starts with Z

Carving, pendant area, booth number starts with D

Bracelet area, stalls start with S

The rough stone area that starts with Y is located on the upper square of Taojing Sunken Plaza. This stall area is the most lively area every time, because the crystal raw ore is the basic material necessary for all kinds of crystal products, just like no matter how many styles of flatbread and pastries sold on the street are, but flour is a must, so many local crystal processing practitioners in this area will also come to buy goods. This area brings together high-quality crystals from all over the world, all of which are shipped back by our local crystal Taoers in the East China Sea from all over the world. In this area, you can see a lot of crystal gems in their most primitive state, and many crystal ores are packed in snakeskin pockets and sold directly on the ground stalls. Although many crystal ores look rough on the surface, they have great potential, and this potential is the appreciation potential after being processed into productive products. In particular, the inclusions in it are crystals and raw ore with ore skins. Many of these raw ores are muddy and rough on the surface, but after cutting and polishing off the original skin, you can see a different scenery inside. If you are interested, you can take a look at one or two pieces, and there are workshops and markets for cutting and polishing processing, and you may be able to have surprises. There are also many stalls in this area that sell crystal balls and crystal cross-border products, which are also processed in local factories. Cross-border products are the rise of crystal cross-border trade in recent years, and foreign crystal lovers mostly like raw ore or simple carvings of raw ore.

The water basin area where the stall starts with P is located at the entrance of the sunken square of Taojing Square, the name of this area is a bit strange, why is it called the water basin area? Because the crystals in this area are soaked in a basin filled with water, the crystals like water, and soaking in water will make the crystals more transparent. So why aren't the crystals in other areas soaked in time? Because the crystals in this area are some simple processing of small pendants, it is a pear-shaped, bead-shaped, square-shaped simple polished small pendant. Small and large, the price is also cheap, usually the volume is the main, put in the basin is more attractive, but also can cover the surface because of the fine polishing with scratches with the latter mineral shortage. These small pendants are usually very good to find some punching holes with pendant ropes for themselves or to send to friends, and there will usually be punching with pendant rope services next to this area.

The booth starts with the crystal pillar area of Z, which is dominated by rough stone processing and polishing columns, and there are also many cross-border crystal gemstone products. Most of the crystal pillars are placed in baskets on the stalls, usually the stall owners are willing to sell the whole basket, saving trouble and worry, and the price is cheap, if you choose it separately, the price is slightly expensive, which is also normal, because the individual selection must be good.

The booth starts with a crystal carved pendant area starting with D, and this area is mainly dominated by crystal pendants and carved ornaments. In this area, you can usually pick up some fine crystal pendants and ornaments, and most of the stall owners are local crystal carving and processing workers, there are carving masters and small workshop craftsmen, the price is tens of hundreds to thousands of more than 100,000 or even more than 100,000, you can choose the right one according to your budget, and you can be thrifty by people.

The booth starts with the bracelet area of S, and this area is dominated by finished bracelets. There will be various styles of bracelets, and the price range is also very large, so you can choose the right bracelet according to your budget.

The above is the East China Sea crystal hunting strategy prepared for everyone, with more and more friends who like crystals, the crystal capital of the East China Sea is becoming more and more recognized, and everyone is welcome to come to the East China Sea to buy crystals, and you can find your favorite crystals in the crystal market of the East China Sea.
