Why is yellow and green jadeite so expensive? How to choose?

Yellow-green jadeite is a very rare variety. It has primary green and secondary yellow. The color is very bright and can catch people's attention at a glance.

We all know that jade is a non-renewable resource. The formation of green jade alone is very difficult, let alone yellow-green jade. The conditions for its formation are even more difficult than those for green jade. This also proves the rarity of yellow-green jade.

The reason why yellow-green is precious is not only its rarity, but also its high ornamental value. Yellow-green jade is bright and rich, with a strong color contrast. The bright yellow-green is mostly of an opaque glutinous ice texture, while the clear and lustrous icy yellow-green is usually not bright in color, but soft like goose yellow and willow green, elegant and tranquil yet bright and pretty. In traditional Chinese culture, yellow is the imperial color, representing auspiciousness, dignity and wealth. Green symbolizes nature, vitality and aura, and implies life and poetry like green mountains and clear waters. The only jadeite that blends these two beautiful colors into one is yellow and green jadeite.

How do we choose yellow and green jadeite?

1. Color and water

The color of yellow and green jadeite is outstanding, with pure and bright tones, rich and vivid, green with yellow, or yellow with green. It is best if the color is grayer and darker, then its value is lower.

Because of the formation of yellow-green jade, the texture of this kind of yellow-green jade is difficult to have the high-transparency texture of ice and glass. It is already rare to be delicate, moist, and watery. If the transparency of yellow-green jade is higher, it is a high-quality product even if the color is light.

2. Carving

Yellow-green jadeite is often favored by jade carvers because of its unique color. The multi-color combination requires a high level of craftsmanship from the jade carvers. Jade carvings with smooth lines and clear layers will make the value of yellow-green jadeite even higher.

Are you, my jade lovers, conquered by the charm of yellow and green jadeite? Yellow-green jadeite is favored by many people due to its rarity and mysterious and gorgeous color. The value and rarity of yellow-green jadeite are self-evident.
