The Secret of Selecting Jadeite That Only Comes Once in a Century

Because jade is nourished by nature, its acquired colors are very rich and gorgeous. Its color combinations and depth distribution vary in countless ways, making people love it.

Generally speaking, if the jade is as green as the leaves after a summer rain, and as shiny and beautiful as the sun, it is undoubtedly a priceless treasure. To select superior jade jewelry, there is a “six-word secret”: color, transparency, uniformity, shape, quality, and reflection.

“Color”: The color of jade should be rich and saturated.

Among all the colors of jade, green has the highest value, and this green must be highly saturated and pure. Other colors of jade: yellow represents blessing; green represents wealth; white represents longevity; purple represents joy.

“Transparency”: Jade should have high transparency.

The highest transparency of jade is called "glass type", which has better texture. The important principles for selecting jade are high purity, warmth and transparency.

“Uniform”: The color of jade should be uniform.

It is not easy to get a uniform color. The value of jadeite lies in its uniformity.

"Shape": The shape of jade is determined by fine craftsmanship.

The quality of the carving craftsmanship and the final shape will directly affect the value of jade.

“Quality”: Jade has a high degree of precision—the sound of jade is as loud as that of gold.

When purchasing a jade bracelet, you can hang the bracelet with a rope and knock it to see if it makes a crisp metallic sound. This helps to determine whether the jade texture is fine.

"Shining": Shine the light from bottom to top to observe whether the jade has cracks.

The natural cleavage lines of jade are a characteristic of natural jade, which is different from the defects and cracks that appear in artificially processed B and C goods.
