When buying jadeite, should you look at the quality or the color? Which is more important?

In the minds of many novices who don’t know much about jade, the sparkling green emerald is the biggest representative, and they think the greener the jade, the better. But in fact, anyone who knows a little about jade knows that the quality of jade cannot be judged solely by color. So when we buy jadeite, should we look at its quality or its color? Which one is more important?

As the saying goes, "experts look at the quality, laymen look at the color." In fact, to put it simply, there are a lot of colored stones, but the only one with good quality is jadeite! Therefore, when judging the value of jadeite, the main thing to pay attention to is the quality of the jade, followed by the color. The quality of jadeite can be roughly divided into glass type, ice type, ice-glutinous type, glutinous type, and bean type. The glass type is the most valuable jadeite. Because the entire piece of jadeite is crystal clear and has high light transmittance, it is called glass type. Bean-type jade is the lowest value jade. It is called bean-type because of its poor water quality, coarse grains and lots of cotton.

As mentioned above, experts mainly look at the quality of jade when buying jade. Does that mean that the quality is more important than color? In fact, I think this is similar to fruits. Some fruits look colorful and delicious, but they taste very ordinary. Some fruits may look plain in color, but they are juicy and have a sweet and sour taste when you bite them. If the quality of the jade is not good, no matter how beautiful the color is, its value will not be very high. However, if the quality of the jade is good, no matter what color it is, its value will be relatively high.

Therefore, the question of whether to consider the quality or color when buying jade is obvious. Of course, if some jade lovers only like the color and do not have too many requirements for the quality, they can of course choose some jades with good color and average quality, but the collection value of these jades may not be that high.
