How much do you know about the most popular type of jade collection - pendants?

Everyone knows that there are many styles of finished jade products, such as bracelets, necklaces, etc., but in fact, the most common and most popular ones on the market are the pendants that are rarely mentioned. In last year's high-end jade collection investment market, pendants accounted for the largest share of 22.21% .

1. What is a jade pendant?

Jade pendants refer to jade ornaments that are used for hanging or wearing, which may be plain or decorative. They are not large in size and cannot be put together as a single piece. They are mainly used in conjunction with ropes and chains.

2. Classification of Jade Pendants

There are many types of pendants, which can be divided into two categories: plain ones and carved ones . The plain ones include egg-shaped ones, peace buckles, peace plaques, etc.

Carvings refer to pendants that have been carved, such as the most common Guanyin, Buddha, lucky melon, etc. Different carvings have different auspicious meanings.

3. Tips for choosing jade pendants

When choosing a pendant, you still have to follow the basic principles of jade, that is, you must first consider whether its type, water content, and color are good enough. The cleaner and clearer the texture, and the better the color and water content of the jade pendant, the more worthy of collection.

Secondly, we need to check whether there are defects such as cracks, cotton, stone patterns, impurities, etc. The presence of defects will affect the value of the jade pendant. Jade pendants with dark color and opaque texture are not of high value.

In addition, for carved pendants, you should also pay attention to the quality of the carving . For example, whether the character's face is clean, and the proportions of the hands, feet, and body should be symmetrical to avoid the appearance of large and small eyes, yin-yang face, big nose and pointed face, and irregular facial features.

In short, jade pendants with good water quality, good color, good carving, and no cracks or flaws are considered high-end.

4. The collection value of jade pendants

On the one hand, the better the quality of the jade pendant itself, the higher its corresponding value. The materials of jade pendants are generally of relatively high quality. Jade pendants with excellent quality, water content and color have high collection value.

On the other hand, jade pendants are often endowed with profound humanistic concepts and cultural connotations, and have cultural collection value different from other categories.
