How to choose between jadeite loose stones and jadeite inlays?

When purchasing jade, you will encounter the question of which to choose between loose stones and inlaid products. Different jade processing methods have their own characteristics. Today, let me show you what is the difference between loose stones and inlaid jade?

Advantages of Jadeite Loose Stone

01

You can check whether there are any flaws with the naked eye, and you can choose a satisfactory jade style yourself.

02

You can find a jewelry design company to design and inlay your favorite style, which is a personalized customization.

03

Jade itself is a non-renewable precious resource. Some jade styles are beautiful even without inlay.

Disadvantages of Jadeite Loose Stone

01

It takes time to buy the jade you like. Now the jade market is large, with abundant products and complicated styles, it is easy to be dazzled.

02

It is troublesome to find a design company. Some people may choose to inlay something when giving it as a gift or in urgent need.

Advantages of finished inlays

01

The style is beautiful and it looks even more classy after being set (after all, jade is unique).

02

To enhance the value, everyone knows that the materials for jade inlay are generally 18K rose gold or platinum. In addition to jade, there are also some special inlays that use colored gemstones or jade of other colors for matching.

03

Each inlaid product is the result of the painstaking efforts of jewelry designers. They are tailor-made for the jadeite itself and come in a variety of styles. Buyers only need to consider the price and their favorite style.

Disadvantages of finished inlays

01

The cost after inlay is too high and I cannot accept it.

02

The inside of the jadeite cannot be seen from the backing, so the thickness and flaws of the jadeite are unknown and it is easily affected by the inlay.

03

I like this jade very much, but the setting style is not suitable for me.

Inlay styles and loose stones each have their own advantages

In fact, both inlaid styles and loose stones have their own advantages, it just depends on your purchasing situation.

Friends who like simplicity and elegance are more suitable for jadeite that has not been inlaid, or has only simple borders or buckles. Large jadeite pieces are also very good.

Friends who like gorgeousness and elegance can choose to inlay exquisite, small pieces of jade, such as jade rings, earrings, and necklaces, which can serve as a small embellishment for you.

Friends who like tailor-made products can choose to find a reliable and regular merchant to carefully select a jadeite they like. After choosing, if it is inlaid, be sure to check whether the bottom is sealed.

If you don’t have a setting, you can consider finding a professional jewelry design company to tailor your own jade inlay style.

No matter what, we need to learn more about market conditions, conduct objective analysis and comprehensive evaluation, be careful to avoid certain risk factors, and choose the jade that we really like.
