Why can’t I just get the jade? Three reasons you must know, a must-read for jadeite novices!

As we all know, different industries have different rules, and the jade industry has even more rules, such as: high-quality goods, first-hand jade, jade that cannot be passed on, etc. Seeing the phrase “jade cannot pass through the hands”, many jade lovers think: “jade cannot pass through the hands”, “jade cannot pass through the hands” does it mean that you cannot hold jade with your hands. If you cannot hold jade with your hands, how can you tell whether this piece of jade is good and whether you can buy it?

Hahahaha, in fact, in the jade industry, there are three main interpretations of "jade is not good enough":

1. It means: Generally, in the jade transaction process, the jade will not be handed directly from hand to hand. The seller will tell you the correct way to try it on before you try it on. They will put a piece of soft cloth on the bracelet for you to see, to avoid breaking it due to not holding it firmly or receiving it firmly. Of course, you must do this even without the seller's reminder.

2. Because there are sweat, bacteria and other substances on human hands, the surface of jade will appear rough after human contact, so that buyers cannot judge the authenticity of jade by the surface. Therefore, jade items for sale are usually wiped with suede before being displayed. Therefore, you should not touch it directly with your hands before testing.

3. This is also an unspoken rule in the industry. As a buyer, if you do not understand the rules and are busy taking the jade with your hands before the merchant has placed the jade steadily, it means that you are an amateur and the seller can then cheat you out of the price.

In short, "Jade is not passed through the hand", as the name suggests, means that no matter what product is being viewed or traded, one party should first put the item on the table (with a velvet cloth laid on the table in advance), and then the other party should pick it up to view it. The viewer cannot directly hand it to others to view.

So, why is there a saying that "jade is not as good as the hand"? In fact, there are three main reasons for the saying "jade is not worth the price", as follows:

Reason 1

Jewelry is a delicate product that is easily broken and fragile. If it is not handled properly and falls to the ground and breaks, it will be very troublesome for both parties. The shelves are very high, so if it does not break, it will break. The jewelry itself is very valuable, and those who accompany you to buy are family or friends, so it is really hard to say what will happen then. Therefore, when watching, be sure not to leave the counter, just try it on the flannel.

Reason 2

For some high-priced jadeite, you are not allowed to try it on unless you are sincere in buying it. Firstly, I am afraid that I won’t be able to hold it, and secondly, I am afraid that fingerprints will be left on it, which will be troublesome to wipe off.

Reason 3

Some unscrupulous merchants will also use this hand-to-hand opportunity to blackmail. A piece of jade may have a scratch on it, but it cannot be seen from the outside. When it is handed to you, someone deliberately makes you miss it and then blackmails you. Teacher Wang has been in the jade wholesale market for many years and has come across several examples like this. Some merchants relied on their large numbers to intimidate and threaten customers, forcing them to spend a high price to buy damaged jade.
