An old lady licks a bracelet in a shopping mall. Is it reliable to use this method to identify the authenticity of jadeite?

Recently, in a jade mall, an old lady licked more than 100 jade bracelets at the counter to determine the authenticity in order to buy the real thing.

It is said among the people that if you lick jade with the tip of your tongue, the jade will feel astringent, while fake jade will not feel astringent! Is it reliable to tell whether jade is real or fake by licking it with your tongue?

Regardless of whether this method is reliable or not, if you lick every piece of jade in your picture, the scene will be too "emoticon-like".

Are there some simple tips to distinguish the authenticity of jade? There are two that are easy to master:

1. Look at the color root distribution

The color distribution of natural jade is very natural, and the distribution of color roots gives people the feeling that the color of jade and the flesh of jade are combined together; artificially treated jade can be seen with stripes of net patterns under reflected light, and jade filled with epoxy resin will fluoresce under ultraviolet light.

2. Look at the workmanship

Good jade will not be stingy with the money spent on workmanship. BC jade is basically mass-produced in order to make huge profits, so not much thought is spent on the workmanship. Therefore, a very intuitive way to distinguish the authenticity of jade is to look at its carving craftsmanship.

In fact, the most important thing when buying jade is to walk more, look more, learn more, communicate more with experienced people, and practice more to become familiar with various feelings. If you have some basic knowledge of jade identification, you will have a better idea in mind when buying jade in the future, and you will not do something like licking the bracelet more than 100 times.
