How to become a jade collector? Learn a few little knowledge about jade and you will be ready.

Many friends often ask me to popularize some more comprehensive professional knowledge of jade. It seems that everyone has moved from appreciating the appearance of jade to appreciating the inner beauty of jade. Congratulations on reaching a higher level in your understanding of jade. You are not only a face control, but also a jade lover who pursues inner beauty. Then I will popularize some professional jade knowledge to everyone.

1. How to choose jadeite?

There are four main things to consider when buying a good piece of jade: certificate, carving, texture and a good merchant. The certificate ensures the authenticity of the jade; the carving gives the jade new life; the texture determines the value of the jade; and a good merchant can not only help you solve all problems when you buy jade, but also give you a nearly perfect shopping experience.

2. Is Myanmar the only place where jade is produced?

Jade is a type of jadeite rock. Logically speaking, this stone is distributed over a wide area and has a relatively abundant output. However, only jade from Myanmar has a certain craftsmanship value. About 95% of the jadeite circulating in our market is produced in Myanmar. Although there is jade from other regions, the quality and quantity are far from comparable to that of Myanmar.

3. What is the role of the Jade Certificate?

Generally speaking, jadeite that comes with a jadeite testing certificate is authentic jadeite. The A grade jadeite marked on the certificate is A grade, and the others are other. This makes it convenient for us to protect our rights as a consumer. If there are problems with the certificate, we can provide feedback and seek the truth, but blindly pursuing small gains will only result in our rights being unable to be defended.

4. What is the connection between jade and emerald?

Jadeite is a general term for all craft-grade jadeite rocks. The name originally came from a species of bird, which is divided into red, purple, yellow and green colors. Fei means red, purple and yellow jadeite, while Cui means green jadeite.

5. Is jadeite jade?

The name jadeite is very popular in the low-end jade market. To be frank, green quartzite, green marble, green agate, green glass, etc. are collectively called jadeite. In fact, this word does not exist in the national gemstone standard, so when some sellers tell you it is jadeite, don't mistakenly think that jadeite = jadeite.

6. Is B-grade jadeite harmful to the human body?

B-grade jade is low-grade brick-like jade that has been "washed". After being corroded by strong acids and alkalis, the tofu-like jade raw materials are formed, and then resin is injected to form this type of B-grade jade. Because it contains a large amount of chemical elements, it can cause certain harm to our skin and is not suitable for wearing.

7. Why can’t jade be passed from hand to hand? Why do we need to put a piece of cloth under the jade when appreciating it?

Jade articles cannot be passed from hand to hand, as they are of high value and are fragile. If a mistake occurs during the hand-to-hand delivery process and causes losses, it is difficult to determine the responsibility. Generally speaking, the jade is placed on the towel first, and then the latter picks it up from the towel to appreciate it.

8. Is Shuimozi jadeite?

Shuimozi is a kind of symbiotic stone. Its specific gravity is lower than that of jadeite, and its transparency is higher than that of jadeite. There is no skin on the surface of the original stone. However, Shuimozi is albite and does not show jadeite properties, so it is not jadeite.

9. Will the green color of emerald last?

Jade lovers who wear jade will find an interesting phenomenon. After wearing jade for a period of time, the green color or jade roots begin to spread, and the color becomes more uniform and bright. This is because body temperature and body fluids activate and migrate the color-causing elements inside the jade. Generally speaking, the significance of the change is related to the quality of the jade and the health of the wearer. High-quality glass-type jade has a dense structure, making it difficult for people to penetrate it; low-grade porcelain-type jade is not light-transparent, so its changes are difficult to detect. The degree of change in jade is a barometer of human health. The healthier the person, and the higher-grade the jade, the greater the change.

10. How to maintain jadeite?

Jade is the most beautiful product left to us by nature. We must avoid collision between jade and other hard objects. At the same time, when we enter and exit some bumpy occasions, we should try to be careful to protect our jade. When we go to places such as sports fields where sweat is easily evaporated, we must take off the jade in time to avoid the jade losing its due charm.

11. Which jadeite has the potential to increase in value?

Collection-level jadeite must be unique in one or several aspects, but one thing is indispensable, and that is exquisite carving. Exquisite carvings are the result of the artist's inspiration and are a unique art form. Whether it is good water quality, beautiful color, or unique color, they are all rare fine jades. If the workmanship, water content and color are all excellent, it is even more rare. The value of these jades increases by at least 20% every year.
