First-generation Nanjiangshi from Zhuolu: origin, form and assessment

An English overview, with a link to the complete Chinese source.

This is an English reading overview of the Chinese article, rather than a complete translation. Follow the original below for the full explanation and supporting details.

The central idea

Nanjiangshi takes its name from Nanjiangshi village in Zhuolu, Hebei. In Hetaobiaomei's terminology, first-generation origin describes a source system, not a nationally standardised quality grade. Typical tall forms and recessed bases are brand observations. Neither a market nickname nor an origin label replaces checking the actual walnuts.
