When choosing a bracelet, don't start by asking "which one is good." First figure out what you want, then work backward from the use to determine grade and budget; the choice will be much clearer.
| Use | Suggested approach |
|---|---|
| Daily personal wear | Floating to semi-sinking grade, high cost-performance material from the Sin Chew region; comfortable and pleasant to look at |
| Gift for someone important | Sinking grade or qinan(kyara) with good resin formation and a clear source; presentable |
| Collection | Look at the specific resin formation, appearance, and source; better to have none than something inferior |
| Stocking/wholesale | Get samples and inspect the goods first, then discuss volume and price |
For the same use, the budget determines which grade you can afford.Set the use first; then the budget is easier to discuss.
