How to identify ice jadeite?

Because ice jade is very popular among consumers in the market, its price is constantly rising. Therefore, many unscrupulous businessmen counterfeit and sell it. Therefore, learning to identify ice jade has become a compulsory course.

①Observe with the naked eye: Jadeite with exaggerated and unnatural colors is usually artificially dyed.

② Check with a magnifying glass: People often mistake water jade for ice jade, but under a magnifying glass, water jade will appear as blocky cotton.

③Fading by chemical reagents: Jade that fades when dilute hydrochloric acid is dropped on its surface is mostly dyed jade.

Ice jade is considered a relatively high-end variety among jade types, and the value of ice jade raw stone is quite precious. In recent years, the demand for jade in the market has been growing. Myanmar is the only origin of jade. Due to the shortage of jade raw stone resources, the market has been in a situation of supply exceeding demand.

Ice jade has thus become a jade raw material with higher auction value on the market. In recent years, the price of ice jade has shown a straight-line upward trend. Therefore, ice jade has become the "pet" of jade collectors and jade lovers.

As the saying goes, things are valuable because they are rare. Especially in recent years, the market's popularity of jadeite and the near-depletion of Myanmar's jadeite raw stone resources have made the value of ice jadeite increasingly high.
