Celestial Indigo Lingbi: Exhibits indigo-black coloration and produces crisp metallic resonance when struck.
Veined Lingbi: Features indigo-black base with irregular linear, arcuate, circular patterns or motifs resembling coins, butterflies, or auspicious clouds.
Anhui Spiral Lingbi: Characterized by spiral protrusions (shell-like formations) in hues of red, yellow, or gray.
Polychrome Lingbi: Displays interbanded colors including yellow, crimson, red, cyan, and ivory within a single specimen.
White Lingbi: Shows partial to dominant calcitic white sections contrasted with indigo or gray zones.
Pictorial Lingbi: Bears gray-black surfaces with dendritic landscapes, figures, or ink-wash-style imagery evoking classical paintings.

Lingbi Stone Planter Attributes
Material Rarity
Crafted from authentic Zhenzhu-layer Lingbi stone, prized for its cryptocrystalline texture and mineralized veining.

Monumental Presence
Distinguished by exceptional density (2.8-3.0 g/cm³), conveying profound stability ideal for architectural decor.

Lithic Authenticity
Each planter is sculpted from a single boulder through non-invasive abrasion, preserving natural contours and fossil inclusions.

Poetic Essence
Exemplifies the "human-crafted yet heaven-born" philosophy, enhancing spatial harmony through organic forms.

Acoustic-Mineral Excellence
Emits clear-pitch resonance (A440-equivalent) and verifiable via UV-negative fluorescence, ensuring geological authenticity.

Scientific Context
Polychrome variations originate from Permian hydrothermal mineralization (Fe/Mn/Cu oxides). Resonance stems from orthorhombic calcite crystal alignment. Pictorial patterns form through dendritic manganese deposition.
