Buying jadeite requires finding the right "way". Remember these six steps to teach you how to successfully buy high-quality jadeite.

Many jade lovers want to buy a suitable piece of jade jewelry, but after searching for a long time, they just can’t find what they like. It may be that they have not found the right "way" and don’t know how to start. The following editor will teach you how to choose your favorite high-quality jade.

Step 1: Look at the craftsmanship

Jade products are generally divided into two categories: plain and carved. The plain body is simple and undecorated, but the quality requirements for jade are extremely high. In addition to being free of cracks, hybrids, and cuts, the cutting and polishing processes must be good, the thickness must be uniform, and the overall proportions must be harmonious. In addition to these factors, carved jade must also require exquisite workmanship and ingenious design.

Step 2: Look at the color

Color is an important factor affecting the value of jadeite. We can start from the following aspects:

1. Pure. The purity of jade color refers to the ratio of jade's primary color and secondary color. Taking green jade as an example, pure green is the best, green with yellow or blue is inferior, and green with gray is the worst.

2. Light and dark. The darker the color of jade is, the better it is. Too dark a color will have the opposite effect and reduce the quality of jade. The best imperial green needs to be of appropriate shades.

3. Vivid. The brighter the color of the jade, the better; the more gray or black there is, the darker the color.

4. Uniform. The more evenly the color distribution is distributed, the better and the higher the value.

The industry generally uses the four points of "thick, bright, correct and uniform" as standards to judge the value of jadeite, which refer to the above aspects.

Step 3: Look at transparency

The transparency of jade affects the refraction of light, thus affecting the overall beauty. The transparency reflects to a certain extent the length of the water head of jade, that is, the water head of jade can be measured by transparency.

Step 4: Look at the "bottom"

The bottom of jade, also known as the ground, bottom sheet, ground sheet, the density of the structure, and the coarseness of the crystals are the basis for evaluating the quality of jade texture and measuring the grade of jade. The finer the quality, the denser the structure, the more sufficient the water head, the higher the transparency, and the better the bottom of the jade.

Step 5: Look at the clarity

A high-quality finished jade product must not only be old, have good color and good workmanship, but also have a clean base without impurities and cracks.

Step 6: Look at the cracks

Cracks will greatly reduce the value of jade. Jade with cracks may break along the cracks if touched lightly. This is a relatively serious flaw. Of course, cracks and stone patterns are different. Stone patterns are caused by the jade itself, while cracks are caused later. If the stone patterns do not affect the beauty of the jade, you can buy it and wear it, but it is recommended to avoid cracks as much as possible.

In fact, everyone will pay more or less attention to these six points when buying jade. Today, the editor just wants to emphasize them again. I hope everyone can find the right channel and buy the jade they like.
