The pair of walnuts in Liao Song's hand have patterns that are mostly worn smooth, and the overall texture is a purple-red hue that shines like agate jade. Although Huo Sining doesn't understand what type of pairing it is, the purple hue of these walnuts shows that they must be from over a hundred years ago.
Over a hundred years ago, people who could afford to play with such high-quality Mitsubishi Lion's Head walnuts were basically either from the Imperial Court or princely nobles, indicating that this pair of walnuts either came from the palace or out of a prince's mansion.
So the 1.3 million that Liao Song spent might not be wasted money after all.
The value of antiques is not only about the object itself but also its historical added value.
If Liao Song could find some evidence to prove that this pair of walnuts came out of a prince's mansion or the palace, with history and lineage, then this pair wouldn't be just ordinary playthings.
