Look at the letter logo

I wonder if you have noticed a common point when looking at these certificates, that is, the jade appraisal certificates of these authoritative institutions have CMA, CAL or CNAL logos. These logos represent the qualifications of the institutions, and "CMA" is a must. If it is missing, it proves that the appraisal agency has no appraisal qualifications at all and is not trustworthy.

Friends who often see jade identification certificates should find that there are signatures of the inspector and reviewer in the information column in the lower left corner of the certificate, and most of these signatures are handwritten. Therefore, if we want to judge the authenticity of a certificate, the signature on the certificate is also a key item, and it must be signed by two people at the same time!

View test results

The information in the certificate should be our biggest concern, especially the inspection results. The inspection results of natural jadeite are generally shown as: Jadeite (Grade A), while most of the Grade B jadeite are marked as: Jadeite (Processed). This is an important link. When buying jadeite and checking the certificate, jade lovers must check it clearly to avoid being deceived!
