How to choose and buy jadeite?

Let’s learn how to choose jadeite. First of all, to buy good quality jade, you need to choose a reputable merchant. When purchasing, pay attention to the color, texture, transparency and other aspects of the jade. The brighter the color, the finer the texture, and the higher the transparency, the better the quality. At the same time, you should also pay attention to the processing quality of jade, such as whether the surface is smooth and whether there are any flaws.

When identifying jadeite, we need to pay attention to the following points. First of all, to identify the authenticity of jadeite, you can conduct density and refractive index tests. At the same time, you can also observe the color and texture of the jade. Real jade has bright colors and clear textures, while fake jade has dull colors and fuzzy textures. In addition, you can also observe the luster and transparency of the jade. Real jade has a soft luster and high transparency, while fake jade has a poor luster and low transparency.

In addition to the above methods, we can also identify the authenticity of jade by tapping. Place a jade piece next to your ear and tap it gently. The real jade piece will make a clear and pleasant sound, while the fake jade piece will make a dull sound.

Finally, when purchasing jadeite, we also need to pay attention to the following points. First of all, you should choose the appropriate jade based on your needs and financial situation. Different jades have different uses and values. For example, green jade symbolizes vitality, purple jade symbolizes mystery and elegance, white jade symbolizes purity and nobility, and so on. Secondly, pay attention to choosing the right accessories. There are many kinds of jade accessories, and different accessories can match different styles and temperaments. For example, precious metal accessories such as gold and platinum can highlight the nobility and elegance of jade; woven accessories such as ropes and leather cords can show personality and fashion; gemstone accessories such as wooden beads and crystals can add fun and cuteness, and so on. Finally, attention should be paid to care and maintenance. Although jade has high hardness, it is easily damaged by hard objects or high temperatures. Therefore, when wearing or collecting jade, be careful to avoid damage such as scratches by hard objects or exposure to high temperatures.

In short, purchasing and identifying jadeite requires comprehensive consideration of multiple factors. When purchasing, be sure to choose a reputable merchant, observe the color, texture, transparency and other aspects, and conduct tests on density, refractive index and other aspects. At the same time, attention should be paid to details in matching and maintenance. Only by comprehensively considering multiple factors can you choose high-quality jade jewelry that is truly suitable for you.
