Jade Essence Egg Noodle

The egg-shaped surface is the most essential and watery part of jade. Many necklaces, earrings, rings, etc. are made of egg-shaped surfaces.

Among jade products, plain products are more common, generally there are two types: ring faces and bracelets. Plain jade products have very high requirements for jade raw materials. The following introduces some common sense in purchasing jade egg-shaped products. A. Contours: The contours of jade ring faces include egg-shaped (oval), pear-shaped, marquise-shaped, saddle-shaped, heart-shaped, crescent-shaped, rectangular, etc., with egg-shaped being the most common.

B. Symmetry

Jadeite emphasizes full shape and neat workmanship. For jadeite ring faces, whether it is egg-shaped, marquise-shaped or other shapes, it is required to have good symmetry. If the bottom surface is uneven or asymmetrical on the left and right, it will reduce its value.

C. Aspect ratio

The appropriate length-to-width ratio creates the beauty of jade's appearance. For example, the length, width and thickness of a plain egg-shaped ring are 20mm*13mm*15mm respectively. If the ring face is biconvex, then it can be said to be of appropriate size proportion, or "of good quality."

D. Thickness and curvature

For a plain egg-shaped jadeite ring face, its thickness and the curvature of the top surface are more important than its outline, because a ring face with a certain thickness and curvature has a better optical effect than a relatively flat and thin ring face. Sometimes, in order to make jade more transparent, the ring face is processed by digging out the bottom, but at the same time it also affects the value of the jade itself due to the reduction in thickness. Generally speaking, ring faces with two convex sides are better, while those with flat bottoms are inferior. The more the bottom is dug and the thinner the ring surface is, the lower the value.

Things to note when buying jade egg-shaped jade

1. The type and color of the egg-shaped surface complement each other, so try to choose egg-shaped surfaces with balanced type and color and relatively uniform color. This is also the reason why there are few egg-shaped noodles with floating flowers. Egg-shaped noodles pay great attention to the uniformity of color, and the effect of different shades is not good enough.

2. Pay attention to stone patterns and flaws. The requirements for the raw materials of jade that can be made into egg-shaped jade are extremely high. Even a small stone pattern of one millimeter or a needle-sized variegated color can greatly affect the value of the egg-shaped jade, so you must pay special attention when selecting it. Of course, if very small stone patterns or impurities appear near the edge and can be covered up by inlay, then it is worth buying, because the price is slightly lower for the same quality, but it does not affect the appearance of wearing.

3. If you want to choose jadeite with good quality and color but cannot afford the price, you can consider choosing a thinner ring face. The price will be much lower. In fact, it will not affect the appearance unless you look closely after setting.

4. Without contrast, after the egg-shaped gemstone is inlaid and worn, the subtle difference in color is not very obvious, so if your finances are limited, you don’t have to pursue high-end colors such as positive green and positive green. As long as the green color does not deviate too much, the appearance is very good.
