鸡血石同寿山石、青田石、巴林石并列，享有中国“四大国石”的美称。主要用作为印章或是工艺雕刻品材料。中国最早在浙江昌化发现玉岩山鸡血石。后来又发现了内蒙古赤峰市巴林右旗的巴林鸡血石。20世纪90年代又在贵州、陕西、甘肃、四川、湖南、云南、新疆等地发现了鸡血石。

鸡血石与田黄石、青田灯光冻石被誉为印石三宝。鸡血石为中国印文化的发展做出了独特的贡献，同时在玉雕工艺中形成了“鸡血”雕独特流派，其作品以“瑰丽、精巧、高雅、多姿”著称。

鸡血石由于产量相当有限，市场价格经久不衰

鸡血石开采于明初，当时鸡血石露出岩石表层，由于没有机器，只能使用人工开采（通常使用炸药开采），多数都是个体较小，没有大件毛料。所以目前市场上的古代鸡血石多数作为印章，挂件使用。极少数以大型摆件。

而且，随着历代的开采，目前鸡血石基本上无法开采得到了。只有有缘者偶尔还是能得到一两块鸡血石毛料。

该件藏品鸡血石原石 ，重：10.4kg,此块鸡血石原石的内里颜色也极为美貌，鸡血覆盖整块70%原石，全红而通灵。浓浓“血液”深入肌理，分明富有层次，流动感极强，结密、细腻、润泽、纯净无杂质。弥足珍贵。 鸡血石是中国特有的名贵石种，是中国四大名石之一。硬地鸡血石是资源稀缺及不可再生性，形成非常难得，具有极高的市场收藏价值！质地细腻，血量充沛，红晕居上，呈现红彤彤的色泽。如红霞映照，娇艳妩媚，是难得的上品材料。

Heliotrope is juxtaposed with Shoushan stone, Qingtian stone and Bahrain stone, and enjoys the reputation of China's "four major national stones". Mainly used as seals or materials for craft carvings. China first discovered Yuyan pheasant bloodstone in Changhua, Zhejiang. Later, the Bahrain Soapstone in Bahrain Right Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia was discovered. Soapstones were also discovered in Guizhou, Shaanxi, Gansu, Sichuan, Hunan, Yunnan and Xinjiang in the 1990s.

Soapstone, Tian Huangshi, Qingtian Light Frozen Stone are known as the three treasures of Indian stone. Chicken blood stone has made a unique contribution to the development of Chinese Indian culture. At the same time, a unique school of "chicken blood" carving has been formed in the jade carving process. Its works are known as "magnificent, delicate, elegant and diverse".   Because of the limited production of chicken bloodstone, the market price is enduring.   Soapstone was mined in the early Ming dynasty. At that time, the bloodstone exposed the surface of the rock. Because there was no machine, it could only be mined manually (usually using explosives). Most of them were small individuals and no large pieces of wool. Therefore, most of the ancient bloodstones on the market are used as seals and pendants. Very few large-scale ornaments.   Moreover, with the exploitation of the past dynasties, the present bloodstone is basically unavailable. Only those who are destined can occasionally get one or two pieces of bloodstone wool.   This collection of rough heliotrope stones weighs 10.4 kg. The inner color of this rough heliotrope stone is also very beautiful. The whole blood is covered with 70% of the whole blood, all red and psychic. The thick "blood" penetrates into the texture, clearly and richly layered, with a strong sense of flow, dense, delicate, moist, pure and free of impurities. Precious. Heliotrope is a rare precious stone species unique to China and one of the four famous stones in China. Hard ground bloodstone is scarce and non-renewable, and it is very rare to form, with extremely high market collection value! The texture is delicate, the blood volume is abundant, and the blush is on top, showing a red color. Such as Hong Xia shines, charming and charming, is a rare top-grade material.
