The traditional granulation technology cannot meet the concise aesthetic needs of modern people and is facing extinction in the development of society because of its obvious shape of historical symbols and the complicated production process. This paper introduced the principle of traditional granulation technology, analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of powder welding and liquid diffusion method in welding, and obtained the differences between plane modeling and three-dimensional modeling in welding. After continuous experiments, it was found that modern industrial auxiliary materials could improve the production efficiency and simplify the traditional granulation process. This study made new use of the ancient method, tried the non-carcass body modeling, blurred the religious history decorative pattern, implication and other patterns and symbols, and the natural forms and colours in the modern social environment are integrated into the creation.

In conventional gem identification methods, whether the emeralds turn red under the Chelsea filter can be used as an auxiliary evidence for emerald identification, but this identification standard has limitations. In order to more accurately describe the colour changes of emeralds under the Chelsea filter, this article applied the colorimetry method to convert the transmittance spectra that passed through the Charles filter into chromaticity coordinates. Thus, the colour changes of emeralds under Chelsea filter can be presented in the form of data. This article first studied the influence of testing angle of spectra, contact way between emerald and Chelsea filter, and model difference of Chelsea filters and other factors on the emerald's chromaticity under Chelsea filter. Then, the optical loss was analyzed during the process of passing through the Chelsea filter. Based on the optical loss, the modulation algorithm of the Chelsea filter for emeralds' spectra was established. The distribution of colour coordinates on the CIE 1931 chromaticity diagram corresponding to the natural emerald and synthetic emerald spectra modulated by Chelsea filter is identifiable. The location distribution of chromaticity coordinates can be used as a basis to distinguish natural emeralds from synthetic emeralds to a certain extent.

The gemmological characteristics of a kind of sapphire that is associated with purple spinel were studied by EDXRF, Raman spectrometer, and fluorescence spectrometer. The sapphire sample contains 99.56% of Al2O3 and a certain amount of SiO2, CaO, TiO2, Fe2O3, Ga2O3, etc.Raman spectra showed that the colourless region is sapphire and the purple region is spinel; the inclusions are irregular and regular hexagonal solid graphite inclusion, gas inclusion that contains CO2, liquid inclusion that contains CH4, healing crack, etc. Fluorescence spectra showed no fluorescence in the colourless and purple substrate, and the peak positions of the fluorescence center of the luminescent part were near 440 nm and 460 nm. With the change of excitation wavelength from 365 nm to 390 nm, the red shift of the fluorescence center occurs. The relative intensity of the fluorescence center at 440 nm and 460 nm changed from strong to weak.

The oxygen content and colour change characteristics of blood amber from Myanmar in different colours were nondestructively tested by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer.The infrared spectroscopy testing results showed that the relative oxygen content of blood amber from Myanmar increases with its colour deepening, which suggests that the colour saturation was basically positively correlated with the oxygen content.With comparasion study of ultraviolet-visible spectra, the darker the colour of the samples, the closer its reflection curve inflection point is to the red end of the spectrum, i.e. the wavelength corresponding to the inflection point of the reflection curve appears "red shift" phenomenon; with the yellow tone deepening, the lightness increases, while the lightness decreases when the samples' colour transition from orange-ish red to brownish red. Combining the colour parameters of blood amber with oxygen content, it can be infered that the oxygen element is the main cause of the blood amber colour changes from orange-ish red to brownish red.

To explore the identification characteristics of purple jadeite that is treated with bleaching, filling and dyeing, the gem microscope, refractometer, UV-Vis-NIR spectropho-tometer, XRF spectrometer, DiamondViewTM, FTIR and Raman spectrometer were used. The results showed that the internal structure of the purple jadeite samples treated with bleaching, filling and dyeing was destroyed, and epoxy resin was detected by infrared spectrometer and Raman spectrometer. Strong Raman peak at 1 596 cm-1 could be the characteristic peak of dyes. Luminescent images showed the characteristic blue-violet fluorescence of the polymers formed by epoxy resin and organic dyes. The UV-Vis spectra of the purple jadeite samples treated with bleaching, filling and dyeing showed the absorption band of 200-350 nm, the absorption peak at 409 nm and the absorption band near 569 nm.The internal structure of the jadeite stained by the purple polishing powder was not damaged, and the purple colour only stained on the surface since the powder particles only remained on the surface. The luminescent images showed pinkish purple fluorescence, which was caused by the purple polishing powder. The strong central absorption band at 558 nm and the weak central absorption band at 611 nm can be seen in the UV-Vis spectra, which are different from the natural purple jadeite.

Recently, a kind of "recrystallized emerald" that claims to be created from natural emerald powder appeared in the market. In order to figure out its identification characteristics, on the basis of conventional gemmological testing, several other testing instruments were used, such as laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, ultraviolet visible spectrophotometer, and laser Raman spectrometer. The gemmological characteristics, chemical compositions and spectroscopy characteristics of 6 "recrystallized emerald" samples were tested. The inclusions of the samples include water-ripple pattern, gas-liquid two-phase inclusion, and healed cracks. The chemical composition of the sample is w(Al2O3)=18.48%~18.79%, w(SiO2)= 65.93%~66.19%, and w(Be)=49 700×10-6~50 700×10-6. The trace elements are rich in V and poor in Fe. The infrared spectra of the samples showed absorption peaks at 2 326, 5 102, 5 272, 5 456, 6 817, 7 143 cm-1 and a wide absorption band in the range of 4 000~3 400 cm-1, which indicates that the samples contain both type Ⅰ water and type Ⅱ water. The UV-Vis spectra of the samples showed absorption of Cr3+, Fe3+ and V3+in one category, and absorption of Cr3+ and V3+ in the other. Raman spectra of the samples showed the Be-O telescopic vibration (1 067 cm-1), deformation vibration of Si-O-Si (683 cm-1) and lattice vibration (321.5 cm-1). The results showed that the characteristics of the "recrystallized emeralds" accord with the characteristics of hydrothermal synthetic emeralds, and no evidence indicates natural genesis. The so-called "recrystallized emerald" is more a gimmick for businesses to attract customers. The "recrystallized emerald" should be correctly named as synthetic emerald.

The aquamarine samples were collected from gem factories and jewelry markets, and the gemmological characteristics, infrared spectra and fluorescence images were tested and analyzed. The results showed that blue flashes and bubles can be seen in the sample when magnified. Infrared spectra showed a group of absorption peaks related to epoxy resin near 2 879, 2 932, 2 962, 3 035 cm-1 and 3 055 cm-1indicating that the samples have been filled. Through magnification, cracks can be seen on the surface of the samples. The fluorescence images under DiamondViewTM showed that bluish white fluorescence interlaces densely in the sample. The micro-infrared spectra showed the absorption peaks related to epoxy resin in the central area of sample slices, indicating that the sample structure was damaged and the filling degree was serious. Such samples should be named "bleached and filled aquamarine" according to the China national standard Gems-Nomenclature.

The supply and demand of the market affect the use value of gemstone. Only sustainable and stable supply of the gemstone resource can continuously promote the consumption and meet the demand of the consumers, thus promot the realization of the gemstone value. In this paper, peridot was taken as the main research object, through extensive literature analysis, the development and change of supply-demand relationship of ancient and modern peridot was reviewed.By analyze the supply-demand relationship trend of red spinel which has the similar historical position and development process of peridot, this paper analyzed the reasons why the peridot is undervalued and its future value improvement. The results showed that the historical instability in the supply of peridot was the main reason of the decline in its popularity, and the serious of underestimation of its value today. At present, the newly discovered Yiqisong Nanshan Peridot Mine in China can provide a consistent and stable supply to the global peridot market, and the four advantages of untreated peridot products meet the needs of the Chinese and even global consumers. It can be predicted that with the stable exploitation of Yiqisong Nanshan Peridot Mine in China, the global peridot market will be continuously and stably supplied, and the peridot can gradually get rid of the current undervalued situation and return to its historical status. The research takes peridot as an example and provides a case of how gemstone supply impacts the demand and its value for the gemstone industry supply, demand and value of gemstone.

Only sustainable and stable supply of the gemstone resource can continuously promote the consumption and meet the demand of the consumers, thus promot the realization of the gemstone value. In this paper, peridot was taken as the main research object, through extensive literature analysis, the development and change of supply-demand relationship of ancient and modern peridot was reviewed.By analyze the supply-demand relationship trend of red spinel which has the similar historical position and development process of peridot, this paper analyzed the reasons why the peridot is undervalued and its future value improvement. The results showed that the historical instability in the supply of peridot was the main reason of the decline in its popularity, and the serious of underestimation of its value today. At present, the newly discovered Yiqisong Nanshan Peridot Mine in China can provide a consistent and stable supply to the global peridot market, and the four advantages of untreated peridot products meet the needs of the Chinese and even global consumers.
