Experts teach you a reliable and practical method to identify the authenticity of jadeite: Look at the jadeite's properties with the naked eye

The topic of how to identify whether jade is natural is still the most concerned issue for many jade lovers.

In many industries involving counterfeiting, there is a very strange phenomenon that the level of counterfeiting is often one step ahead of the level of authenticity identification.

Generally speaking, people first encounter fakes, then study how they are made, and then they have methods to identify such fakes.

This also leads to the fact that no matter how advanced the identification methods are, there are still jade lovers who are deceived by taking medicine.

In fact, there is no need for too many methods to identify the authenticity of jade. Just look at natural jade more often. After looking at it for a long time, you will naturally feel uncomfortable when you see fakes.

In the jade industry, if you see a piece of jade and it feels like fake, you can treat it as fake. There is no need to prove that it is a fake.

In other words, in the jade jewelry industry, there is only 100% natural jade, and there is no 99% chance of it being natural jade. This is why there is no doubt in jade identification.

Therefore, jade lovers only need to buy jade that can be recognized at a glance. If you have any doubt, just give up.

In the jade industry, the simplest and most intuitive way to prove whether it is natural jade is to look at the jade's green properties.

Let me tell you how to see the jadeite texture of jadeite with the naked eye.

It can be said that jadeite quality is a unique characteristic of jadeite, and jadeite quality does not appear in any other kind of jade.

So what is the nature of jade?

A flaky flash of the same size appears on the surface or shallow layer of jadeite, which can be seen with the naked eye or a 10x magnifying glass. This is the jadeite texture.

The quality of jadeite is a very good basis for identification, especially for the identification of large pieces of jadeite.

Jadeite quality is one of the important signs for identifying jadeite, but it is not the only one.

1. Observation method of jadeite's jadeite properties:

First of all, it is very important to choose a good location.

When observing the jadeite's emerald properties, be sure to avoid the well-polished parts and observe the parts that are not completely polished or difficult to polish.

Observe the reflective surface of this area;

One thing to note here is: even on a piece of jade, the coarseness of the crystal grains of jade is different. To observe the quality of jade, you should choose the parts with coarse crystal grains for observation.

2. Specific manifestations of jadeite jadeite

The specific manifestations of jadeite's "emerald nature" can be generally divided into three categories:

1. "Fly Wings"

"Fly wings" refers to the bright white reflections that appear on the surface of jadeite when exposed to light, like fly wings.

Because the sizes and directions of the jadeite minerals in jade are different, when the jade is rotated under light, different parts of the "fly wings" will appear with flashes of different sizes.

2. "Orange Peel Effect"

The "orange peel effect" refers to the fact that when jade is observed through reflection on a polished surface, it will have bumps and depressions of different sizes and directions similar to those of orange peel.

In older jadeite, this feature is not very obvious to the naked eye, so you can use a ten-times magnifying glass.

3. "Flocculation"

"Floc" refers to the phenomenon that when transparent or translucent jade is illuminated by side light or bottom light, some cotton-like substance will appear inside the jade, which is also called "cotton".

The "flocs" are mostly caused by the reflection of light between the grains, cracks and impurity inclusions of the jadeite minerals in jade.

Of course, there are some jades with very good water quality, transparency and cleanness, without obvious cotton, but this kind of jade is extremely rare.
