For friends who are not professional jade collectors, it is a problem to identify the authenticity of jade without professional identification tools, so it is easy to make mistakes. Today, the editor will teach you some identification tips to help you avoid detours on the road of playing with jade!

Look at the gloss

Natural A-grade jade has a typical glass luster, and looks bright and clear to the naked eye. However, jade that has been injected with glue and bleached has a resin luster, and if it is not handled properly it will look dull. What's worse, it will have a waxy texture and have no rigidity at all! When looking at the gloss of jadeite, we need to shake the jadeite back and forth and left and right to feel the strength and uniformity of the jadeite's reflection through the reflected light on the surface!

Look at the structure

In addition to identifying jade by its gloss, we must also look further at the structure of the jade. An important point is to see if the jade has "fly wings". "Fly wings" are what we call jadeite nature, which is also the symbol of jade. Its characteristic is the irregular star-shaped or flaky flashes on the surface or inside of the jade!

When identifying "fly wings", you need to observe it on the reflective surface of the jadeite, and try to avoid areas that are heavily polished. Some jadeite may have very good water quality and a tight crystal structure, so the "fly wings" may not be obvious. Therefore, when judging, you cannot make a conclusion based on only one method!

Look at the color

Jade has rich colors and colorful. This is also a little trick to tell the authenticity of jade. Natural A-grade jade has uneven color depth and is accompanied by color roots, especially the green that everyone likes most. It will have color roots distributed in various forms such as dots, veins, filaments, and patches. As the saying goes, "where there is color, there must be roots", this is what it means!

When identifying color roots, you need to observe the colored areas of the jade and look for the source of the color. If the color appears out of thin air, or only appears in cracks, then it is mostly dyed jade!

People may not understand some things based on verbal descriptions alone. When playing with jade, you should look and listen more. If you are really not sure, it is safest to take it to a professional appraisal agency for testing.
