Questions About Very Rare Chinese
- How rare is emerald?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Emeralds are quite rare. This gemstone is rarer and more expensive than a diamond.
- Why are Birkins so rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023Birkins are so rare because of a range of factors. Each is handmade by a single expert craftsperson at the celebrated French luxury house Hermès, so this is going to limit how many can be produced in a year. A limited assortment of leathers and colors is released annually, and bags made in exotic skins such as lizard, ostrich and porosus and niloticus crocodile are exceedingly rare. Demand for the bags is astronomically high because the Birkin, which debuted in 1984, is considered an iconic design and is a coveted item all over the world. Additionally, customers are required to have a purchase history with Hermès in order to buy a new Birkin, and the company only allows boutiques to purchase a specified number of Birkins bi-annually. And Birkins are among the most expensive handbags in the world, so this isn’t an accessory that you’re going to see everyday. Shop an assortment of Hermès Birkin bags on 1stDibs.
- Is a black pearl rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Because black pearls only form when sand is trapped in a specific type of oyster, the Tahitian black-lipped Pinctada, they are very rare. Black pearls occur once in every 10,000 pearls.
- Is ostrich leather rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023Compared to cow, calfskin and lambskin leathers, ostrich leather is rare. However, many luxury fashion houses like Hermés, Louis Vuitton and Gucci use ostrich leather as a material. Shop a selection of ostrich leather handbags, shoes and accessories on 1stDibs.
- Is Rhodolite Garnet rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Certain quality rhodolite garnets are very rare. The most valuable rhodolites are “spirit color” or medium-high saturation, medium tone, pinkish red gemstone.
- Is the Hermès Kelly rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes. Hermès Kelly bags are very rare and highly sought after, due to their iconic style status associated with actress and Princess of Monoco, Grace Kelly.

- Are moss agates rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, moss agates are considered one of the rarest types of agates available.

- Is So Black Chanel rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 27, 2023Generally, So Black Chanel handbags are rare. The term refers to bags that feature black leather and matching black hardware. For each collection, Chanel produces handbags in a set range of colors, and usually only a limited number of bags like the Chanel Classic Flap Bag and Chanel Boy Bag are available in So Black. Because the seasonal selection is small and there is usually great demand for the black-on-black bags, it can be hard to find one at a Chanel boutique. However, you can often buy them on trusted online platforms. Explore a variety of Chanel So Black bags on 1stDibs.
- How rare is the Rolex Daytona?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022In general, the Rolex Daytona models are rare because the luxury Swiss watchmaker only produces limited runs of each one. Some models are rarer than others due to their popularity. You'll find a selection of Rolex Daytona watches on 1stDibs.
- Is the green Submariner rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023Yes, most collectors consider the green Submariner to be rare. Although Rolex uses the green dial on many dressier timepieces, the luxury watchmaker only occasionally offers sportier watches like the Submariner in the color. When Rolex did make green Submariners, production numbers tended to be limited. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Rolex Submariner watches.
- Are Rolex Submariners rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Whether or not Rolex Submariners are rare depends on the model number. Some are easier to find than others due to increased production. Examples of rare models include the ref. 5517, the honeycomb dial ref. 6204 and the ref. 6538. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of Rolex Submariner watches.
- Are music boxes rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022It depends on the make and model of the music box. To find the value of a music box, experts suggest that you work with a certified appraiser. The value of a music box will depend on a number of factors, including the shape it’s in. You’ll find expertly vetted music boxes on 1stDibs.
- Are Muzo emeralds rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, Muzo emeralds are rare. Mined from the Muzo area of Columbia, Muzo emeralds are known for their bold, green hue and utmost quality, making them a popular choice for jewelry collectors. You’ll find a selection of authentic Muzo emerald jewelry pieces on 1stDibs.
- Are coral fossils rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Whether or not coral fossils are rare depends on their specific type. Agatized coral that comes from chalcedony quartz is rare, while others are more common. You'll find a collection of coral fossil decorative objects from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- Why are Rolex Daytonas so rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023Rolex Daytonas are rare because the luxury Swiss watchmaker produced a limited number each year, and demand for the watch has historically been high. In 1962, Rolex was named official timekeeper of the Daytona International Speedway, the home of American stock-car racing. The following year, it introduced the Cosmograph reference 6239, or the Rolex Daytona, in honor of the partnership. Shop a variety of Rolex Daytona watches on 1stDibs.
- Is a star sapphire rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023Yes, a star sapphire is rarer than other types of sapphires. The gemstones get their name from the natural starburst effect that appears on their faces when you view them under a single overhead light. On 1stDibs, shop a range of star sapphire gemstone jewelry.
- How rare is a natural emerald?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023A completely natural emerald is rare. Often, emeralds go through treatments to enhance their appearance or durability. Compared to diamonds, emeralds are actually 20 times rarer. While they’re rare, emeralds are gemstones to purchase if you’re on a budget because they appear larger than a diamond of the same carat weight due to their lower density. Emeralds are believed by many to symbolize royalty, love and mysticism. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of emerald jewelry from some of the world’s top sellers.
- Is the Rolex “Root Beer” rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Rolex never made a “Root Beer” watch. It did make a color combination of a brown dial and brown insert, and the inserts are sometimes called root beer bezels. The Rolesor Root Beer GMT-Master became the unofficial root beer Rolex in the 1970s but it had other nicknames too. It’s these early iterations of this watch that are considered rare, but the color combination is not as rare as the Root Beer GMTs are. On 1stDibs, find vintage and contemporary Rolex watches from top sellers around the world.
- Is a cat's eye stone rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, the cat’s eye chrysoberyl gem is extremely rare. The highly sought after stone is only found in a few deposits in the world. Shop a collection of expertly vetted gems from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 15, 2024Many Royal Doulton figurines are rare. Among them are prototypes, which usually feature markings that say "Factory Proof," "Design Sample," "Survey Figure" or "Property of Royal Doulton Tableware produced for sale." Limited-edition figurines and older ones in exceptional condition also tend to be rarer. Some examples of rare and highly sought-after Royal Doulton figurines include the RailRoad Guard, designed by B. Harper; the Virginia HN2844, made in 1978; the Rose Garden HN4559, produced in 1994; and Juno and the Peacock HN2827, circa 1984. On 1stDibs, find a collection of Royal Doulton figurines.
