If you are into jade, learn how to invest in jade correctly

The ancients believed that jade was a stone from heaven that could bring good luck. It symbolizes perseverance, justice, courage, harmony and pure spirit, and also implies love between men and women. Therefore, jade has become a treasure in people's eyes since the Qing Dynasty.

Jade is a treasure bestowed by nature to mankind. Jade has an amazing history and amazing value. Jade is so exquisite and precious, yet so mysterious that jadeology has become the most profound subject in the jewelry industry.

Jadeite, also known as jadeite jade, jadeite, jadeite, and Burmese jade, is a type of jade that is emerald green (called jadeite) or red (called jadeite) in color. Chinese people like jade and carve it into various handicrafts with beautiful meanings.

The investment prospects of jade are promising, and various investors are flocking in. As an investment project that requires considerable investment, some basic elements and details deserve the special attention of every investor, especially novices.

First, read more and do more research

Investing in jade and jadeite products is a highly practical science, and one must often come into contact with the real objects. The so-called knowledge in various books or online guides are naturally based on experience, but to truly master the essentials one must put them into practice. Only through close contact can you understand the specific situation of jade more intuitively and remember the sensory characteristics of various shapes, qualities and colors. Even at a flea market or street stall, you can start by buying small pieces of jade jewelry. Although the price is not high, by understanding various small pieces of jade, you can accumulate experience about the texture, color, feel, etc. of jade, laying the foundation for real investment.

Secondly, be mentally prepared for long-term investment.

Jade is different from other investment categories such as finance. It is a handicraft and its price mainly depends on its material and production process, and these standards are relatively objective and fixed. In recent years, the price of jade jewelry has been rising steadily both internationally and domestically, with few big ups and downs, unlike calligraphy and painting works, which fluctuate due to the rise and fall of the author's reputation. Therefore, it is difficult to reflect the appreciation potential of jadeite through short-term investment. Long-term investment is the best choice.

Third, take a scientific view of the naked eye's ability to identify

For many master experts, jadeite can indeed be evaluated with the naked eye and based on personal experience. However, for the vast majority of ordinary investors, the reliability of intuitive experience is limited after all. In today's world where various artificial materials are changing with each passing day and it is difficult to guard against them, it is more likely to go wrong when relying on experience for identification. Therefore, before purchasing larger pieces of jade, it is a very necessary step to have a professional identification agency or expert use special instruments to conduct scientific identification. Jade investment is no small matter, and if you are not sure of the target, it is better to give up than to act blindly.

Fourth, consider the level of craftsmanship

In the field of collection and investment, especially in the three types of national art, calligraphy and painting, porcelain, and jade, the price of jade products is most affected by the level of craftsmanship, and jadeite is even more prominent. Although ancient jade jewelry has extremely high archaeological value, its price in the international market is not necessarily very high. However, modern handicrafts with extraordinary artistic appreciation value can be sold at a very high price as long as the craftsmanship is exquisite. The craftsmanship standard is the key step in further artistic processing of jadeite raw stone, and is also the first factor to consider in comprehensively considering the value of jadeite.

Fifth, ancient and modern varieties have their own strengths

In the investment market, ancient jade has an additional uncertain factor that can lead to appreciation compared to modern jadeite. Because with the operations of speculators, the craze for ancient jade in a certain period cannot be predicted, which also makes the value of ancient jade collections have an astonishing performance. However, modern jade crafts are still the mainstream of the collection and investment market. Because of the general recognition of society, mainstream markets and circles, its value is not lost in the process of preservation and appreciation. As long as the jade is exquisitely crafted, unique and has a certain collection value, stable appreciation is not a dream.
