How to choose a jadeite pendant?

As the saying goes, "Don't worry about anything and don't be bothered by worldly affairs." This saying is used to describe the jadeite Wu Shi pendant. Because it has no carvings on the whole and its style is simple, pure and natural, it has this beautiful meaning.

So how should jade lovers choose the Wu Shi Pai that suits them? Why do so many people like to wear the Wu Shi Pai? The most important reason is: not picky about people.

First, look at the style. The most basic style is to drill a hole on the top of the card and pass a rope through it, without any extra decoration. Some people think that since the Wu Shi Pai is just a plain piece without any craftsmanship or decoration, it should be worthless.

In fact, it is just the opposite. There has always been a saying in the jade circle that "good jade does not need to be polished", that is to say, if a piece of jade itself is flawless, then it does not need any further modification and will be very valuable. This is why jade ring faces are small but expensive. It is precisely because they are unpolished that all their flaws will be magnified. If you want to meet the standards, you must ensure that they are flawless. The same applies to Wu Shi Pai.

Second, look at the material. Chinese people have always favored jade since ancient times. Most of the traditional Wu Shi Pai are made of jade, with jadeite and Hetian jade being the most common. Later, wood was also added, such as rosewood, thuja, golden nanmu, etc., which are all easy to polish into square shapes. Not only can they be worn, but also played with.

Third, look at the shape. Although many Wu Shi Pai are just a bare piece of paper, more and more people now prefer to carve some auspicious patterns on the top of the Wu Shi Pai. For example: carving auspicious images such as Kuilong, Guanyin, Buddha, etc. to ward off evil and bring good fortune makes it more beautiful. The Jade Wu Shi Pai seems to have nothing on it, simple and open, yet it seems to contain everything, being tolerant and magnanimous, with a strong sense of Zen and profound artistic conception.

Fourth, look at the weight. The size of Wu Shi Pai is small, and the weight is usually below 50 grams, with 20-40 grams being more common. The uncarved one is heavier, and the carved one is lighter. It is too simple, so now more and more Wu Shi Pai will have the back inlaid. The Wu Shi Pai with simple inlay will be more exquisite.

After jade lovers choose to buy jade pendants, they can use a relatively simple silver chain to string them together when wearing them. For those high-quality pendants, they can be inlaid with gold or platinum, or they can also be inlaid with diamonds. This will make it look more elegant and noble, and more suitable for women to wear.
