[The Story: "Nan Jiang Shi" ] The Nan Jiang Shi (Southern General Stone) is legendary among collectors for one reason: Density.

• The "Marathon" Walnut: Unlike White Lion Heads that turn red quickly, the Nan Jiang Shi is known for being incredibly hard and dense. It takes patience to color, but the final patina is unmatched—a deep, glass-like transparent red that looks like crystallized blood.
• The Texture: It features the signature "Ant Track" texture—dense, dotted ridges that look like paths made by marching ants.

[Why this pair (#NJS-70) is a Collector's Choice?]

• Rare Large Size (41mm): Nan Jiang Shi trees typically produce small nuts. Finding a matched pair at 4.1cm x 4.1cm is rare. This is considered a "Large" size for this specific variety.
• Classic "Sloping Shoulders": As seen in the top-down photos, this pair features the distinct sloping shoulders and a "diamond" cross-section that defines the variety. The shape is muscular and geometric.
• Perfect Mating: The two walnuts lock together beautifully. The ridges are thick ("meaty") and robust, promising a solid "clack" sound when rolled.

✅ DO:

• Brush Daily: The "Ant Track" texture has many small pits. Daily brushing is required to keep them clean and polish the depths.
• Be Patient: Do not rush the color. This variety rewards long-term dedication (years, not months).
• Rest Them: Let them adjust to your room temperature for 12 hours before playing.

❌ DON'T:

• NO A/C or Heaters: Even though they are hard, temperature shock is still the enemy.
• NO Oil: Do not artificially oil them. Let your hand's natural oils do the work slowly.
