Skillfully Using the "Eight-Character Secret" of Jade Identification

Four-word formula for identifying jadeite materials

1. Seed

Generally refers to the fineness of jade's texture and the tightness of its structure. Generally speaking, if the mineral particles of jade are relatively large, the structure will be loose and naturally not fine; conversely, if the particles are small, the structure will be compact, the texture will be fine, and it will also fluoresce. Generally, the better ones are glass type, ice type, etc. In addition, there is a distinction between new mines and old mines.

2. Water

Refers to the transparency of jadeite. The texture of jade is often related to its transparency, so we will hear experts talk about the quality of jade's "water quality".

3. Color

As the name suggests, it refers to the color of jadeite. The general standard is jade with rich and evenly distributed colors, or jade with varied colors.

4. Shape

Generally, the shape of jadeite is full and regular, which means that the material is good. However, ordinary jadeite, such as white and green, can only be cut into a thin slice, which means that the material limits the work.

1. Work

Refers to carving or inlaying. It is crucial for the craftsman to polish every detail of the jade.

2. Rhyme

3. Transmit

The longer the jade is passed down, the more collectible value it has, just like many works of art.
