As people become more and more fond of jade, many people go to jade and gold shopping malls to look at jade jewelry. You also know that the girls and boys in those gold shops are all very eloquent and sweet-mouthed. If we don’t know something about jadeite in advance, we may involuntarily swipe our cards and buy it after they tell us. But before you buy, you should pay special attention. Next, I will share with you some characteristics of B-grade jadeite. Don’t buy it when you see it.

When you are looking at jadeite in a mall, if there are 4 situations, it is B-grade jadeite, it is recommended not to buy it

How to Identify B-Grade Jadeite

First, look at the color of the jade. Because B-grade jadeite is treated with some solutions, some secondary colors on the surface will be washed away. Although the color of the entire B-grade jadeite looks very bright, it certainly looks unnatural. It looks like green jadeite, but if you look closely, you will see some yellow in the green. If green and white appear in one piece of B-grade jadeite at the same time, the color distribution will look unnatural. Color is an important criterion for judging B-grade jadeite.

Secondly, when you look at jadeite in a shopping mall, if there are any of the following 4 situations, then it is B-grade jadeite and it is recommended not to buy it. The surface of natural A-grade jadeite is not processed. The surface luster of natural jade looks very beautiful, with a glassy luster. The surface of B-grade jadeite has been soaked in some chemical solvents, so its gloss is relatively poor. If glue is added to jade, it will have a waxy luster.

Third, judging by appearance

The surface of B-grade jadeite that has been soaked in acid solution will show some pits. These pits are sometimes arranged in rows. It is also called trachoma by industry professionals. Some merchants may fill these pits with glue, but this glue is easy to fall off. This is also an important method to judge B-grade jadeite. When we are looking at jadeite in shopping malls, if we encounter these pits on the surface of jadeite, it is B-grade jadeite, so don't buy it.

Judging by appearance

Fourth, judge from the cracks on the surface of the jade. Use a magnifying glass to observe the surface of the jade. The presence of cracks is one of the important signs that it is B-grade jade.
