Kogolong
English to Chinese
Other
Mining & Minerals / Gems
This is a precious stone used in jewelry.
According to Wikipedia, Kogolong is a stone of volcanic origin, glossy like ceramic but as hard as marble. It is used in jewelry for the manufacture of luxury jewelry. Lately many designers in the industry have been able to appreciate the qualities of luster of this new material. (Google translated from Italian)
Does anyone know the Chinese term for this word?
Thanks in advance!
