The price of jade has skyrocketed. Jade bought for 1,000 yuan 10 years ago has skyrocketed 2,000 times!

Speaking of price increases, apart from commodity prices, what impressed us the most was housing prices. In just a few years, housing prices have increased several times, and even if one tightens one's belt, one cannot save enough for the down payment. However, even if the housing prices rise so wildly, it cannot surpass the status of jade in the world!

In ten years, Beijing's housing prices have increased by at most 10 times, but what about jadeite? Add two more zeros at the end.

1000 times? ? ! ! That’s too exaggerated! It's not an exaggeration at all, we are speaking based on facts.

Some time ago, an old woman came to a museum in a certain city and wanted to ask an expert to help her identify a jadeite she had bought more than ten years ago.

After appraisal, its current value is as high as 2 million RMB! Such high-end jadeite had already made everyone present praise it endlessly, but what the old man said next made everyone stunned: I bought it for 1,000 yuan over more than ten years, and it was not a loss!

This is more than just no loss! It’s really a huge profit! It has increased by 2,000 times. Even if the inflation rate is taken into account, it has increased by more than 1,000 times! I am so envious. If my father had bought one more than ten years ago, he would have a house now.

Why is the price of jade rising so fast? The craze for gold speculation has passed, housing prices have also stabilized (although still unaffordable), but the price of jade is still rising. Why is the price of jade rising so fast? Let me tell you slowly.

Jade has a single origin, with 95% of high-quality jade produced in Myanmar. High-end jade is hard to come by, and resources are becoming increasingly scarce. “Scarcity is precious, and rarity will appreciate in value” is an established truth. Therefore, the price of jadeite has been rising all the way, and it has not depreciated but has skyrocketed.

The methods of jade mining are still very backward. Limited by technology, conditions and the harsh local environment, the mining and transportation processes of jade are relatively difficult. It is no wonder that the price of jade has remained high.

Jade has always been one of the most favorite jades in China. As the saying goes, "jade must have meaning, and the meaning must be auspicious." Each piece of jade contains unique auspicious meanings. Coupled with thousands of years of cultural heritage, the Chinese people's understanding and love of jade has been integrated into their blood and become a complex. Ten years later, you give your Mercedes to your son, and he will say it is too old! Ten years later, when you give your iPhone 7 to your son, he will say, "Stop kidding!" Ten years later, when you give your current pair of bracelets to your son, he will say: Mom, you are so wise. Now I can get married! “A piece of jade is worse than a ton of gold.” This ancestral jade can help you at a critical moment.

Chinese people love jade, not only because it enhances their temperament and improves health and beauty, but also because it is very valuable. As a collection investment, it is almost a sure-win business. There is a saying in ancient times that "gold is valuable in troubled times and jade is valuable in prosperous times". Now more and more people are choosing jade as a first choice for investment and collection. Many wealthy people have become keen on collecting jadeite of high collection value. The demand for high-end jadeite with high price in the market is increasing. In addition, the ongoing war in Myanmar has led to a supply shortage in the market, and prices have naturally been rising.

“People take care of jade for a while, and jade takes care of people for a lifetime.” Wearing jade for a long time is beneficial to human health and even has the effect of beautifying the skin, which can benefit the wearer for a lifetime. Jade also represents a kind of peace. Some jade can even bring good luck and ward off evil if worn for a long time, and can even protect the owner from disasters in emergencies.

After reading the above, are you eager to buy a piece of jade as a family heirloom?

I would like to remind everyone that not every piece of jade can be used as a collection investment. Whether the jade is valuable and whether it can appreciate in value requires careful selection. To judge whether a piece of jade has collection value, it all comes down to its type, water, color, and workmanship. Walk around more, see more, and communicate more with experienced people.

Jade collection and investment are becoming more and more popular now. Let’s talk about the taboos involved. Everyone is curious about new things. Once they become addicted to collecting, if they see jadeite they have never seen before, they will want to buy it immediately. However, it is very likely that once the novelty wears off, the collection itself will not be worth buying, and they will regret buying it at a high price.

When collecting jadeite, you must do it within your means. The most taboo is to be in debt or to be driven by a competitive mentality to be the first. In fact, when funds are tight, collecting should be reasonable, and if necessary, giving up should be done. The best attitude is the Ah Q spirit. There are many collectors who believe that “whatever I see, I own”.

All things are the same, fine quality comes in small quantities, especially for precious items like jade. As the quantity increases, the quality goes down. Usually, beginners are eager to improve their appreciation of jade, but have no time to appreciate the beauty of jade, and ignore the greatest pleasure of collecting - tasting.

Generally speaking, people think that their things are the best. Once they approve of their jade collection, they will infinitely magnify its beauty. If this collection does not receive recognition from everyone and experts, your expectations will be hit and the temptation of imagination will disappear. Therefore, in order to avoid this disappointment, do not have empty expectations.
