Enzhou Qishi (Enzhou Wonder Stone)

Enzhou Qishi

　　Enzhou Qishi is found deep in the mountain forests of Enping City. It is a natural sedimentary rock with a history of nearly 500 million years and is also a precious natural health material. Testing and identification by the Guangdong Provincial Central Laboratory of the Ministry of Geology and Mineral Resources have shown that Enzhou Qishi contains 26 elements. In addition to relatively large amounts of silicon, aluminum, potassium, sodium, iron, and magnesium, it also contains essential elements for human health such as copper, zinc, chromium, nickel, and manganese. The stone contains components that are slightly soluble in water, and the resulting liquid is weakly alkaline. No harmful heavy metal elements detrimental to human health were detected.

　　Hand-carved tea sets made from Enzhou Qishi are not only rustic and noble in appearance, but what’s even more astonishing is that when filled with plain water for several hours, the stone releases a variety of trace elements. Regular consumption can help regulate metabolism, enhance fatigue resistance, and provide antioxidant and anti-aging health benefits. When used to brew tea, Enzhou Qishi teaware can keep the color, aroma, and taste of the tea unchanged for up to five days even in hot summer weather.

　　Ladies who love beauty might not expect that stones can also be used for skincare. Indeed, Enzhou Qishi has unique functions in beauty and cosmetics. It can whiten the skin all over the body, especially effectively clearing acne on the face, reducing wrinkles, slowing aging, and helping maintain a radiant and youthful complexion. Beautiful ladies shouldn’t miss out on this.

　　In fact, Enzhou Qishi, with its 500-million-year history, has many other uses, such as finely carved wine ware, Enzhou Qishi inkstones, and Enzhou Qishi spring water.
