The Jade College Entrance Examination Paper is here! How much do you know about these unpopular jargons?

Jargon , which refers to the "professional terms" commonly used in the industry, is also one of the fastest ways for outsiders to understand an industry. As the college entrance examination is approaching, today I will test your understanding of the unpopular jargon of jadeite~

No1, high quality goods

This is a word that sounds powerful even though it is not clear. The word "high" alone makes people feel extraordinary.

In fact, high-quality jade does refer to expensive, collection-level jade finished products and rough materials , generally referring to ice-type and above, or colored materials, with a value of hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of millions .

No.2, Pick up the goods

"Qi" is a verb, so "qihuo" refers to the entire process of processing jade from rough material into finished product . Whether a piece of rough material rises or falls depends on how good the "qihuo" effect is and whether more and higher quality finished products can be made.

△Raw stone

△Flakes

△ Finished bracelet

The above is the process of turning a piece of raw material from a raw stone into a bracelet.

No.3, water discharge

Everyone should know the meaning of the word "water head", which refers to the transparency of jade. Then "water out" refers to the shape of jade after polishing, which often becomes more transparent and has more water head.

△Before polishing

△After polishing

Polishing is also the final step in jade processing. After this step, if it does not need to be set again, it can be sold on the market as a finished product.

No.4, Cui

Sauce green is also called sauce green, a kind of jade with artificial color . It is similar to C grade jade, but it is specially dyed green.

Therefore, there is a saying "Observe the Spicy Green with a Cold Eye" , which means to improve your eyesight and identify the Spicy Green jadeite to avoid being cheated.

No.5, Rigidity

Everyone has seen steel, which is very cold, hard and bright. Therefore, jade described as steel gives people a feeling of being hard and firm, cold and cool like steel. It is called steeliness, rigidity, and steel flavor .

Such jade usually has a fine texture, tightly combined grains , and an extremely pure surface that makes the refractive index effect significant, presenting a clear and sharp sense of light, which is a characteristic of only high-quality jade .

No6, Qiying

If a piece of jade has high transparency, good water head, fine grains, and evenly and orderly distribution , when light passes through, the edge will refract a bright line, which is fluorescence. This process is called fluorescence .

Fluorescence is also a kind of light sensation of jadeite, which is relatively soft and is generally found in jadeite of ice type and above.

No.7, thick pile

The combined thickness of the length and width of a finished jade product, that is, it has a certain thickness and the horizontal surface must be relatively large and full. This kind of jade is called thick pile. Under the same quality, thick pile jade has a higher price.

△Big tire thick pile bracelet

In contrast, a "zhengzhuang" refers to jadeite with a standard thickness and a very regular overall shape. Such jadeite is not only more beautiful but also more valuable.

No.8, spicy color

Jade is most valuable when it is green, but there are many kinds of green. The best are imperial green and sun green, followed by spicy green and sweet green . The so-called spicy color means that the green of jade is particularly bright, rich, and prominent, and very eye-catching!

△ Spicy green bracelet

The word "spicy" perfectly describes the rich and eye-catching charm of spicy green jadeite.

No.9, One-handed

Merchants usually package and sell finished products made from the same piece of material or several items of different materials but of similar quality (not individually) . This method is called first-hand sales. At this time, the price is the first-hand price or package price.

The average unit price of a first-hand sale is relatively cheaper than that of a single sale. Many agents purchase goods in this way, usually bracelets or egg-shaped objects.

No.10, Head and tail of cargo

Due to the characteristics of jade material, the quality of different parts is different. For example, if you take N bracelets from a green belt, the first one is the best and the last one is the worst.

Generally speaking, the quality of the first part of the goods is better than that of the last part. In addition to quality, there may also be differences in size.
