Taking stock of the 4 most valuable types of jade, check to see if you have one!

Jade can be made into many kinds of jewelry. There are many jade products on the market, such as bracelets, pendants, earrings, etc., which are dazzling. When buying jadeite, in addition to buying beautiful ones that you like, you must also buy ones that will maintain their value. Which jade has the highest gold content?

Today, Teacher Wang has listed the 4 jade styles that are the most valuable and have the highest gold content, so you can use them as a reference when buying jade in the future.

01 Jade Bracelet

Those who are familiar with the jade market know that jade bracelets are very expensive. Why are they so expensive?

Jade bracelets are the most popular among the jade jewelry family and have always been the "spokesperson" of the jade family. When merchants buy stones, they estimate the price of the stone based on how many bracelets they can make at most. Therefore, bracelets are also a weather vane that influences the jade market. Bracelets are jade products that require the most demanding material selection. If the material is not big enough or has too many cracks, it is impossible to make a good jade bracelet. Therefore, most of the good materials are made into bracelets. This is also the reason why bracelets are generally expensive, because the price of bracelets is based on the material.

What kind of bracelet is valuable?

The following factors determine the price of jade bracelets:

kind:

The better the quality, the more expensive the bracelet will be. The price of an ice jade bracelet is basically no less than six figures, not to mention glass jade, which starts at eight figures. Of course, the worse the quality, the lower the price.

color:

Based on the type, color will also affect the price of the bracelet. Currently, the most expensive color on the market is green, and green is the most expensive. Of course, the value will also be determined by the distribution of colors. Bracelets with full colors are naturally the most expensive.

flaw:

Defects will affect the price of the bracelet, for example, if there are cracks, the fewer defects, the higher the price;

Bezel:

Bracelet circumferences come in different sizes, and the most popular bracelets are those in the middle range (56 to 58 circumferences), and the prices are also more expensive.

This stone can only make one bracelet

If a piece of raw stone has many cracks and flaws, it naturally cannot be made into bracelets. It can only be made into small items such as pendants, and the price will drop immediately.

In the auction market, jade bracelets have always been more expensive than other styles, and have greater room for appreciation.

02 Jade pendant

Unlike jade bracelets, pendants are not as demanding on materials, and the styles that can be made are relatively diverse. And during the production process, defects can be removed and the essence can be retained.

Because jade bracelets are plain, the only criteria for judging their value are their quality, water color, and texture. The quality of a pendant is not only determined by the quality of the jade. It is also very important to consider whether the subject matter is carefully designed, the color combination is clever, and the jade carver's skills are superb.

Bracelet vs Pendant Budget

The carving of a pendant is more complicated than that of a bracelet. Does that mean a bracelet is definitely more valuable and worth buying than a pendant?

uncertain! It depends on your budget.

If your budget is less than 50,000 yuan, the only products you can choose within 50,000 yuan are entry-level jade products. The cost of selecting materials for bracelets is so high, so don’t have too high hopes for the quality. Just choose an entry-level one. It is worth collecting small fine jadeite with good quality and color that costs less than 50,000 yuan.

What should I buy with a budget of 100,000? This budget has already begun to catch the attention of experts. You can buy a bracelet worth 100,000 yuan in any type or color. You can make a choice based on your preference. A pendant worth 100,000 is quite good, and there will be a lot of choices. You can choose a finely crafted plain piece, or a unique, exquisite and chic inlaid piece that can be worn to hold up the occasion!

If your budget is in the millions, it is definitely a jade collection, but it is still far from the top-level jade. In the ocean of jade collection, the sky is the limit. A true collector would never buy an expensive jadeite just to show off.

Buying a bracelet depends on fate, while buying a pendant depends on the theme. When processing jade bracelets, the material is chosen carefully. How big the inner diameter can be depends entirely on the material, so generally the bracelet is chosen by the person. It is already a rare opportunity if you come across a jade bracelet whose quality and color satisfy you; if the circumference of the bracelet is also suitable, it is no exaggeration to say that it is fate.

03 Jadeite Bead Necklace

The necklace looks worthless? Not at all!

Some people always think that bead necklaces are not valuable because they don’t seem to require high standards for raw materials. In fact, jade bead necklace is a great test of the quality of jade raw stone. Not all raw stones can be cut into a complete bead necklace.

The beads are expensive

It is not difficult to carve a bead with excellent quality, water color and color, using any material, such as the material left over from cutting bracelets. But if you want to carve a lot of them, especially such an abnormal number as 108, you won't be able to find so many of the same quality, water quality and color.

Therefore, if you want to get a string of beads with consistent quality and color, you can only use the same piece of material to make the beads. First of all, the original stone must be large enough, without any lines or cracks, and the color must be uniform. Cut the original stone into thick slices, and then cut them into cubes one by one. With such material, the output rate is less than 20%. You can imagine how great the loss is. Finally, it is polished into jade round beads. You can imagine how much material it takes.

The cost of making bead necklaces is so high that merchants are afraid of it. Even a necklace has to be calculated by the beads, because only merchants with sufficient funds and courage will choose to make jade bead necklaces. In addition, good raw materials are scarce, so many merchants, after getting a good piece of material, mostly make it into bracelets, rings or pendants. Making them into bead necklaces wastes a lot of good materials, and it is easy to have a backlog of goods if they buy less. Therefore, the fewer bead necklaces are made, the more precious they are, and the price is self-evident.
