Nanhong Agate, known as "red jade" in ancient times, has a delicate and oily texture. Among the many colors of agate, natural red agate, especially "Southern red agate", has been cherished since ancient times due to its low production, bright colors, and superior quality. Nanhong agate has the festive color "red" preferred by the Chinese, and the texture is "oily" and delicate, like Hetian Nephrite. It is a viral jade variety in China. Today's Nanhong agate is important as Hetian Nephrite and Jadeite.
南红玛瑙，古称”赤玉”，质地细腻油润。在众多颜色的玛瑙中，天然红色玛瑙特别是“南红玛瑙”，由于其产量极为稀少、颜色鲜艳、品质优越，从古至今备受世人所珍视。南红玛瑙具有中国人偏爱的喜庆色“红色”与质地像和田玉般 “油润”细腻的感觉，是中国非常受欢迎的玉石品种。今天的南红玛瑙，已经和和田玉、翡翠形成三足鼎立之势。
The most significant difference between "Nanhong Agate" and ordinary red agate is that "Nanhong Agate" has an oily luster, delicate texture, and unique red color. When you observe "Nanhong Agate" under strong light, you can see many red dots (called "cinnabar dots" in the jargon), and the red color of "Nanhong Agate" is formed by the aggregation of these tiny dots. Yes, ordinary red agate does not have this feature.
“南红玛瑙”与普通红玛瑙最大的区别在于“南红玛瑙”的光泽油润，质地细腻，以及独特的红色。把“南红玛瑙”放在强光下观察的时候，可以看见其中有许多红色的小点（行话称“朱砂点”），而“南红玛瑙”所呈现的红色就是由这些小点聚集形成的，普通红玛瑙却没有此特征。
