Historically, cinnabar was also the source for refining vermilion or bright red pigments. Its color and properties stem from a hexagonal crystal system belonging to the trigonal crystal class, with crystals sometimes exhibiting twinning. For example, in the creation of Thangka paintings, the natural pigments traditionally used precious minerals and gemstones such as gold, silver, pearls, agate, coral, turquoise, malachite, and cinnabar, as well as plants like saffron, rhubarb, and indigo, for coloring and embellishment. Cinnabar is generally divided into two types: purple gold cinnabar with visible crystals, and imperial red cinnabar. The red hues of these two types differ slightly. Purple gold cinnabar tends to be a deeper red compared to the imperial red cinnabar, and it also features the distinct cinnabar crystals, making it a favored choice for many. Imperial red cinnabar, on the other hand, has no visible crystals to the naked eye, presenting a full, vermilion red with a more refined color, and is typically priced higher than purple gold cinnabar.
