Many people are concerned about the authenticity of jadeite. There are also many articles online that use the presence of orange peel texture to identify the authenticity of jadeite. What is the orange peel texture in jadeite? Is jade without orange peel patterns necessarily fake? Let's hear what Cuixuan Yipin has to say? Due to the different hardness of jade's columnar and fibrous crystals, orange peel patterns occur, similar to wrinkles on jade. High-hardness crystals are raised, while low-hardness crystals are sunken. This unique phenomenon is called the orange peel effect, which is also the basis for judging the quality of jade. The orange peel effect is obvious in jadeite with a rough texture, while the orange peel effect rarely appears in icy and glutinous jadeite. It can basically be judged that the orange peel effect is almost real jade. The obviousness of the orange peel effect can be used as a basis for identifying the quality of jadeite. For example, glass-type and ice-type jade are jades with better quality, and it is difficult to see the "orange peel effect", while the "orange peel effect" is easily seen in bean-type jade. To observe whether jade has orange peel patterns, we can place the jade on a polished surface and observe it through reflection. We will see depressions and bumps of different sizes and directions similar to orange peel. The orange peel effect is particularly prominent in natural A-grade jade. Because A-grade is pure natural jade, observing its orange peel effect is one of the important bases for identifying A-grade jade. Jade can identify structural characteristics based on the size and shape of the orange peel, and can accurately distinguish between similar jade and counterfeit products. One is the nature of jadeite’s structure. The larger the jade grains, the softer the composition, and the more obvious the orange peel effect. On the contrary, the smaller the jade particles and the tighter the combination, the more obvious the orange peel effect. The orange peel effect is a unique phenomenon on the surface of jade. Its obviousness can be used as a basis for judging the coarseness of jade crystals. When observed through reflection, A-grade jadeite will show the same raised or sunken surface as orange peel. This is the orange peel effect of A-grade jadeite. But we must pay attention: the jade with orange peel effect must be A-grade jade, but not all A-grade jade has this effect. Whether the orange peel effect is obvious depends on the size, shape, arrangement and surface polish of the jade particles. In fact, many people who know about jade judge its authenticity based on the orange peel effect. Orange peel texture is a manifestation of natural jade. B-grade jade may occasionally have it, but it is very rare and does not have the natural look. It is easy to see if you look closely. It should be noted that the "orange peel effect" can only be seen in artificially polished jade products, while the "orange peel effect" will not appear in jade products polished by vibration machines.
