The "three prohibitions", "four fears" and "eight precautions" in jadeite collection should be known early

When collecting jade, there are some details that you should pay special attention to. If you are not careful, you may ruin your beloved jade. There are "three taboos", "four fears" and "eight precautions" in jade collection. So what are the “three prohibitions”, “four fears” and “eight attentions”?


Three taboos of jade maintenance

First, jade should not be eaten with fishy smell:

Do not allow items with fishy smell to come into contact with jade. Fishy and salty smells can easily damage the quality of jade. In particular, Guanyin and Buddha-type pendants should not come into contact with fishy smells, and do not wear consecrated Buddha statues.

Second, jade should not be greasy

Do not wear jade into the kitchen, and it is best not to let it come into contact with oil. This is because when jade comes into contact with oil, it will wrap around the jade and prevent the luster inside the jade from emitting, making it look dull. The oil will also affect the quality of the jade.

Third, jade should not be contaminated.

When wearing jade, do not go to dirty places, as this will cause the jade to lose its spirituality. Do not play with your beloved jade with dirty hands. Such jade will not have much effect even if you play with it every day.

Four things to be careful about when caring for jade

One fear, fear of ice

Jade is afraid of ice. If you put jade in the refrigerator, the refrigerator will affect the crystallization inside the jade, and the living jade will become dead jade, and the luster of the jade will also be affected.

Second fear: fear of fire

Jade will slowly change and melt under the high temperature of fire. Under normal circumstances, fire will not affect jade, but if the high temperature continues, jade will slowly become soft and black, and its color and luster will disappear.

The third fear is ginger

Ginger can remove fishy smells, but it is best not to let it come into contact with jade. After contact with jade, the jade will slowly become dull and lifeless. If the jade is soaked in ginger for a long time, it will also develop pockmarks, which cannot be remedied no matter how much you play with it.


Four fears: fear of falling

Although jade is very hard, it is also afraid of falling. If a piece of jade is dropped, it will be broken. Jade lovers should be especially careful when wearing it.

Eight points to note when collecting jade

First, you need perseverance to collect jade

When collecting jadeite, you must be persistent and play with it carefully. A spiritual treasure cannot be played with in a day or two. Without perseverance, you may give up halfway.

Second, don’t aim too high

When collecting jadeite, you should choose what you like, confirm your collection objects, start with the simple ones and then collect profound and meaningful items. Don't rush things.

Third, don’t be indecisive about collecting

Once you like a good collection, bracelet, pendant or brand and feel that you are destined to have it, don't be indecisive. Opportunities are fleeting and once you miss it, you've really missed it.

Fourth, avoid blindly following the trend

Today's jade collections are mixed. When buying jade, don't just buy what others say is good. You need to be bold and careful, and consider the issue carefully.

Fifth, don’t let your imagination get the better of you.

Jade is also a kind of collectible. Don’t let your love for collectibles affect your job or work. You should correct your attitude and not lose your ambition because of playing with things.

Sixth, avoid disobeying laws and regulations and being immoral

When collecting jadeite, one must maintain one's original intention and not forget one's moral principles for the sake of profit. One's character is more important than the collection. If one forgets one's moral principles for the sake of profit, he is a mean person and has violated morality.

Seventh, avoid hiding without learning

We should have a learning attitude towards everything. We should study and learn at the same time when collecting, and then make progress. We should not show off everywhere when we have achieved a little success, stop striving for progress, and be a frog in a well.

Eighth, avoid talking big

Don't show your collection to the world without reservation and brag about it in front of others. You may think that collecting can cultivate your sentiments and improve your temperament, but this will make you seem worldly.
