Rough Texture Somdej Wat Rakang, Phim Yai, Ok Vee |
||
The
above Somdej Wat Rakang (SWR), Phim Ok Vee, are of the rough texture type which can be
found only 5 % of all SWR amulets. Such the rough texture looks like Chinese peanut
cracker ( Tao Pang or Tao Khong in Teochiew dialect) or Thai sticky sweet made of peanut
and poprice ( KraYasart). So it's called Nua Khanom ToobTab when compared its similarity
to Chinese peanut cracker, or called Nua Krayasart when compared to such the Thai sweet. Looking on the amulets surface, the materials, shell lime, honey, and Tang oil were well mixed and homogeneously cemented. The oily look texture are totally dried due to over 130 years of age. What we see on the surface of the SWR amulet under 10X magnified lens comprising white gravel materials of lime compound, ground burnt shell, ground sun-dried rice, ground dried flowers (brown), and ground burnt-incence stick (black) are floating on. Please notice that no loosely white materials can be seen on the amulet surface because almost all materials are strong type with least granular powder, and all of them were completely flooded by the mixture paste of low viscosity. |
