Yellow jadeite and jadeite yellow are actually different, and I didn’t even know it! ! !

"Yellow jade?", "Yellow jade?" I wonder if you have ever thought that these two are the same? When I first came into contact with jade, Mr. Zhao told me that I subconsciously thought that they were the same concept. It was not until one time when I was discussing with a friend that I realized my ignorance. I made a big joke at that time and really wanted to find a hole to crawl into~~ If you have the same problem, learn it quickly before you make a fool of yourself:

Classification of yellow jadeite

Yellow jade can be divided into two categories: yellow jade and jade yellow.

Yellow jade is jade that is mainly jadeite (brown-red) with a yellow hue;

Jadeite yellow is mainly yellow with brown tones. The yellowest ones can be chestnut yellow, chicken oil yellow and lemon yellow.

Yellow Jade

Jade yellow

Since the formation of most yellow jade is generally subject to later transformation, the texture of yellow jade is not very fine and the transparency is relatively low. Only a few can reach ice type, so yellow jade ranks in the upper-middle position among jades.

Yellow emerald color

Yellow symbolizes brilliance. Yellow jade comes in light yellow, dark yellow, orange yellow and golden yellow. Natural high-quality yellow jade is also known as "golden jadeite". It is orange or honey-colored, crystal clear, bright and uniform in color. It is the best grade of yellow jade and is relatively rare.

Yellow jade is located above red jade, closer to the surface, and is mainly dyed by limonite to form a "yellow fog". Most yellow jade is turbid and impure, often with a brown tint, and is neither bright nor transparent enough. The highest quality yellow jade is often formed on the outer skin of jade water stone. It is relatively thin and the material of high quality yellow jade is also small, making it difficult to make into bracelets. Therefore, high quality yellow jade bracelets are very precious. If you have one on your hand, you must definitely take good care of it!

The Value of Yellow Jade

The price of yellow jade is generally lower than that of green jade, but when purchasing it, you should also consider the quality, color distribution and uniformity of the yellow jade. The price of yellow jade with good quality and uniform color distribution is not much inferior to that of green jade. Yellow jadeite with slightly better quality, such as ice grade, is extremely rare and valuable. Some high-quality yellow jadeite is also the best among jadeite and is very expensive. For example, chestnut yellow jadeite that is ice grade or above is rare and precious, very beautiful, and very expensive. An ice-grade chestnut yellow jadeite pendant may cost as much as one million yuan, but yellow jadeite of average quality will not be very expensive. For example, some brownish yellow jadeite pendants generally cost between several hundred yuan and one thousand yuan.

Yellow represents power and wealth, and is a color of pride. People who wear yellow jade are filled with brightness and happiness, and show wisdom and gentleness. As people understand jade more and more, yellow jade is loved by more and more people, and the price of yellow jade is also rising continuously. If you see one that catches your eye, just take it!

When it comes to yellow jadeite, we have to mention yellow-green jadeite. Due to its unique scarcity and beautiful appearance, the price of yellow-green jadeite is incomparable to that of yellow jadeite. It is even more expensive than ordinary green jadeite (except for the top-grade full green).

Things to note when purchasing yellow jadeite

1. First of all, when buying yellow jadeite, you should pay attention to whether what you are buying is yellow jadeite. There are some artificially dyed yellow B+C jadeite and Huanglong jade on the market, and some jades with yellow appearance. In addition, there is orange-yellow garnet jade, and its color appearance and specific gravity are similar to those of yellow jadeite. Some people in the market carve orange-yellow garnet jade into hand-held pieces and sell them as yellow jadeite. Because the weight of the garnet jade hand-held pieces is heavy enough and feels heavy in the hand, it looks very much like yellow jadeite. Many people often mistakenly buy them as yellow jadeite . Remember, when purchasing yellow jadeite, it is best to go to a regular jewelry and jade appraisal center to get an appraisal certificate to ensure that what you purchase is natural yellow jadeite.

2. Secondly, when buying yellow jadeite, what you want to pay attention to is the purity of the color. Try to avoid choosing yellow jadeite with a color that is too brown or too dark. But this mainly depends on your eye. If you like it, it doesn’t matter. If you always feel that the color is weird and you don’t like it, then don’t buy it.

3. Finally, the most important thing is that in some jades, especially in colorless jades, the yellow color exists in spots, like rust, which affects the overall beauty of the jade. Therefore, people in the jade industry call this spotted yellow "rust color" and regard it as a flaw in jade. However, the existence of this "rust color" is proof of natural jade, because if the jade is treated with acid and alkali, the "rust color" in the jade will be washed away. Therefore, as long as the "rust" is not very serious, it will not have any impact. There is no such thing as perfect.
