What does spring-filled jade look like? Why is it called Spring Jade?

When thinking of spring, many people’s first impression is the revival of all things, the growth of grass and the singing of birds. Naturally, they would think that the color closest to spring is green. But in fact, the spring color in jade is not the most common green. This is actually related to the origin of jadeite, which is mainly produced in Myanmar. Yunnan Province, which borders Myanmar, has had a relatively strong jade trading culture since ancient times. Many words related to jadeite are derived from the naming habits of Yunnan people.

"Chunse" is an adjective with different meanings in different places. Some interpret it as the scenery of spring, which is to praise spring; some compare it to a beautiful face, mostly referring to women; some describe joy and blush on the face, etc., and it also refers to facial expressions in Yue Opera jargon. In Yunnan, people believe that the purple color of eggplant flowers is the purest and most beautiful, and the beauty of purple jade can be compared with the delicate and gorgeous eggplant flowers. Eggplant flowers bloom in spring, so people simply call purple jade "spring".

"Spring" is also called the color of camellia, which means purple air coming from the east. In Chinese folk culture, it is a sign of nobility and good luck. The color of spring can also be divided into pink purple, eggplant purple and blue purple, among which pink purple is the best. "Cai" means green, referring to green jade, and green represents life. "Spring-colored" jade refers to jade that has both violet and green hues. At present, since spring-colored jadeite is very rare, it is conceivable that its value is inestimable, so its value is relatively higher than other jadeite.

At present, the mineral resources of spring-colored jadeite are very scarce. Around the 1990s, the mines of spring-colored jadeite had been almost fully mined. So far, no large-scale production area of ​​spring-colored jadeite raw stones has been found. Moreover, it is rare to have two or more colors on the same piece of jade in the market. If you want to ask about the value of spring-colored jadeite, overall, the value of spring-colored jadeite is still quite high.

Especially in the past two years, the value of violet jade has appreciated rapidly. The spring-colored jade itself is very valuable. If it has a bit of green and a rich purple, it can cost over six figures. Those with good moisture content and slightly poor texture are the current mainstream trend, because those with good moisture content and color are too expensive. Generally speaking, laymen look at the color, while experts look at the type. It’s okay if the color is light, as long as it looks good and not spotty.

Purple jade has a very high value in the jade industry, especially some high-quality jade, which is no less valuable than green jade. Therefore, many unscrupulous businessmen will dye and counterfeit it to deceive consumers, so you must learn how to identify it when purchasing.

Observation with a magnifying glass: Observe purple jade with a magnifying glass. If it has been artificially dyed, there will be accumulation inside the jade, and there will be some fine granular impurities.

Ultraviolet irradiation: Real purple jade has no fluorescent reaction under ultraviolet irradiation, while dyed jade will have a very obvious fluorescent phenomenon.

Ask the merchant for a jade identification certificate: It is best to ask a more authoritative organization to authenticate the authenticity of the jade.

The purple color on jade is generally not deep. The jade industry divides the purple in jade into pink purple, eggplant purple and blue purple according to the different shades of purple. Pink purple usually has a finer texture and better transparency, followed by eggplant purple, while blue purple generally has a coarser texture and can also be called purple beans.

The most common ones are bean-type and glutinous-type, which have a light reddish-purple texture. The color changes in shades under different light, commonly known as "dying in the light", and the price is relatively low. Violet jade is named because its color resembles that of violet flowers. The jewelry industry also calls violet "Chun" or "Spring Color". It can be divided into red spring, purple spring and blue spring according to its color.
