The "Blue Smurf" among jadeite – blue water jadeite!

Most of the jadeite we see are probably green, red and yellow in color, while blue water jadeite is a less common variety. Blue water jade is a type of ice jade, the king of jade. It has a light blue color and is mainly composed of omphacite. It has a fine and transparent texture, often light gray-blue throughout, and some are lighter in color. It has a fine-grained fibrous metamorphic structure and a super mylonitic structure.

The tone of blue water jade is mainly blue, which is somewhat similar to oily green jadeite to a certain extent. It is a close relative of oily green jadeite, but not all blue jadeite is called blue water jadeite. In addition to having color, it must also be old, delicate, have good water head and high transparency, and then be matched with color, to be able to have such a name.

There are two main factors that affect the price of blue water jade. One is the quality of jade, that is, the fineness and transparency of jade crystals; the other is the color of jade, including the purity of the blue hue and the depth of color.

Between the quality of jade and the color of jade, one should first focus on the color of blue water jade, among which the color tone is the primary focus. Whether the color tone is gray, green, or pure blue plays a crucial role in the overall appearance of blue water jade.

The color chosen is pure blue. Even if the color is a little lighter, or the quality is slightly worse, the overall feeling of the jade is still elegant and refreshing. If it is gray, no matter how good the quality is, it cannot reverse the flaws caused by the color. Good quality and transparency will make jade moist and have great spirituality. The second thing is the color concentration. If the color concentration is neither too much nor too little, but just right, it will definitely be the icing on the cake and add more texture to the blue water jadeite.
