Collecting dragon stone jadeite? It really takes time and patience!

Recently, a friend said: "I have seen a lot of high-end jadeite, and I hope you can help pay attention to the dragon stone type of jadeite, because the dragon stone type is the only one missing in my jadeite collection"!

So, what is dragon stone jade? Let us get to know each other first!

Longshi is a very rare type of jade. It grows in caves and is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is full of water, as if the water is about to overflow, and has excellent luster.

Longshi is the top grade type of jadeite, with no cotton, no lines or impurities. It looks as smooth, delicate and warm as silk, with full water content, excellent gloss, sufficient rigidity and radiant light.

The characteristics of Longshi jade can be summarized as follows:

1. The texture is glass-type, has a gem luster (fluorescence), is pure, has no cotton or impurities when observed with the naked eye, and has a base color.

2. Has a cool and icy feel.

3. The green color is completely dissolved into the ground. The color is generally lighter and very uniform, melting into the jade flesh. This is what we often say "the color blends into the background, the tone is uniform, and no color roots are visible."

Longshi is a rare variety of jade. Its biggest feature is that its production is extremely small and there are very few of them left in the world. In the early years, people generally collected jadeite with darker colors. As production has decreased, the price of light-colored dragon stone jadeite has increased several times, or even dozens of times. Therefore, it is a great test of collectors' financial strength.

At present, high-end jade resources have become extremely scarce after large-scale mining. Coupled with the mining restrictions imposed by the Myanmar government, high-end products on the market have become extremely scarce, let alone this kind of top-quality dragon stone. Meeting is a chance, and destiny will only happen when there is an opportunity! To collect Longshi jadeite, we really need time and patience to wait, to discover, and to collect!
