​Don’t throw away your jade bracelet after it breaks! Can I save you again?

It is said among the people that "jade bracelets are spiritual. When they are accidentally broken, they often protect their owners from disasters!"

It sounds a bit superstitious, but who can fully explain the things in the dark?

You should know that jade is very hard and the possibility of it breaking for no reason is very low.

For the owner of the bracelet, regardless of whether this statement has scientific basis, the fact is that the jade bracelet has been broken into several pieces .

Seeing that the jade bracelet that has accompanied me for many years has lost its complete shape, I can't help feeling a little sad.

If the bracelet is expensive, it would be even more heartbreaking!

Although a broken bracelet is an irreversible injury, don't rush to throw it away! Maybe we can save it again!

There are many methods on the market to repair jade bracelets, the most common of which are glue bonding , gold inlay jade and reconstruction.

Glue bonding

This method is usually only applicable to bracelets with relatively flat broken ends. First, you must clean the broken ends, then use super glue to slowly piece the broken parts together, and finally wipe off the excess glue.

The whole process is simple and quick, but the effect is average!

Not only is the appearance extremely poor, but the glue will gradually oxidize over time and is likely to break again.

Gold inlay jade method

Using a gold or silver hoop to tie the two sections together can not only cover the fracture, but also make it more stable than glue.

If there is a missing part in the middle and it cannot form a complete circle, the restorer can also use a gold chain or hollow gold ornaments to connect it.

The method of inlaying gold with jade is relatively versatile. As long as the bracelet is not broken into pieces, it can basically be pieced together.

As for the quality of the finished product, it will test the restorer's aesthetic taste and skills.

Remodeling

As the name suggests, it means redesigning a jade bracelet that has been broken into several pieces into beads, bracelets, etc. for wear, without any further effort to restore it to its "bracelet" appearance.

The cost of this method is relatively high and is more suitable for higher quality jade bracelets.

In addition to the above three methods, there is a new technology called "nano seamless repair" on the market, which claims to be able to restore the bracelet to its original appearance!

It sounds quite mysterious, but is it really possible to do so?

"Nano seamless repair" may seem like high-tech, but the principle behind it is actually very simple.

First, mix the glass crystal hardness glue (liquid) with the jade powder.

Then use tools to fix the broken jade bracelet together and put it into the mixed solution.

The repair effect is achieved through high-pressure infiltration injection in a vacuum environment.

Knowledgeable jade lovers should find that the whole process is similar to the production of B+C jade.

As for the final effect, it would be a bit of an exaggeration to say that there is absolutely no trace of breakage. All we can say is that there is no trace of breakage under social distance.

If you look closely under the light, you can still see the traces.

But in general, its appearance is better than glue bonding.

However, the jade may turn yellow or turn into A or B grade jade later, so jade lovers should be cautious.
