The most important item in the jade appreciation and evaluation process - the judgment of "type"

Among all jade jewelry, jadeite is the most difficult to appreciate. Until now, jade experts have not been able to compile a set of universally recognized evaluation standards, but everyone has their own unique evaluation method and their own aspects that they value more. Although everyone has their own opinions on the specific aspects of jade quality, there is great harmony and unity in the evaluation of high-quality jade. Whether it is the selection of high-end and high-quality jadeite or other fine gemstones, the selection criteria seem to be judged based on craftsmanship, color, type and size. So when evaluating the grade of jadeite, the most important thing is the type of jadeite. The type determines the quality of jadeite and is the primary condition for selecting high-end jadeite, which is of vital importance. In other words, the quality of high-end jade must be particularly good, and poor quality cannot become high-quality jade.

1. What is “seed”?

In the jade industry, "type" is related to the quality of jade. It can refer to the fineness and transparency of jade. Generally, the higher the degree of transparency, the better the type of jade. "Type" can also refer to the texture of jade. The finer the texture, the better the type. "Type" also refers to the strength of the material's reflective luster. Generally, the better the type, the stronger the light that passes through. For example, high-end jades always have halos around them, which change with the light.

2. What is the relationship between “type” and jade quality?

Good quality jade is usually as clear as glass, with a tight internal structure and no impurity particles. Their texture is often extremely fine, and even their hardness is better than other grades of jade; good quality also means that the appearance of the jade is more beautiful. Good quality jade is often crystal clear and has strong light transmittance.

When this type of jade undergoes optical phenomena, it will appear "spiritual", which also gives the jade life, making it lively, vivid, beautiful and charming. Many people are attracted to jade because of its vividness and agility. Jade is the symbol of aura and beauty. Chinese people tend to like things that are elegant and steady yet lively and agile, which is why Chinese people love jade so much. Good quality jade is often very rare, and most jade materials contain impurity particles visible to the naked eye. However, it is rare to see impurity particles in high-end jade products. Most of them are crystal clear and transparent. However, this kind of good jade is very rare and hard to come by, so this makes good jade very precious and the price is particularly expensive.

3. How to judge the quality of jadeite

In fact, knowing and simply mastering the method of judging the species is a prerequisite for choosing and judging jade. Of course, what is more important is the accumulation of experience in subsequent judgments. During the evaluation process, you must also remember to "compare prices from three stores" and frequently compare it with other grades of jade. Then, based on the knowledge you have mastered and the differences in different jade textures, you can get certain perceived differences in species.

Professional jade experts also often use "luster", "glue" and "rigidity" to prove the quality of the jade. "Luminescence" refers to the crystal light formed around the jade ornaments, and "glue" refers to the delicate texture of the jade, with almost no visible crystal particles. "Rigidity" is a manifestation of the tight and hard structure of jade. When light shines on jade, it will reflect a dazzling and strong light. Therefore, high-quality jade will basically exhibit these characteristics.

From the above points, it can be seen that the evaluation of jade is indeed not simple, and high-end jade with high quality is indeed rare and precious.
