What kind of jade is more worthy of investment and collection in 2021?

Judging whether a piece of jade is worth collecting is actually judging the future commercial value of jade. As for how to evaluate the commercial value of jadeite, a comprehensive evaluation system has traditionally been formed based on the five aspects of "type, water, color, workmanship, and flaws". The better the jadeite performs in these five aspects, the better the quality evaluation will be, and the correspondingly higher the commercial value will be.

Yunnan Province's "Jade Jewelry Quality Grade Evaluation" DB53/T302-2009 introduced the concept of weight and attempted to quantify the factors that affect the value of jade. This is conducive to practical operations and has gradually been widely accepted by the industry. It can also be used to determine whether jade jewelry has collection value.

Color: Color has the highest weight in jade evaluation and also meets the inherent requirements of jewelry. In traditional aesthetics, jade is respected in green, and emphasizes "positive, positive, rich, uniform and harmonious". The purer the color, the higher the evaluation. Emerald green, positive green, bright green, golden green, apple green, etc. are common colors of collection-level jade.

Water: Water refers to the transparency of jade, also known as "water head". The industry classifies water head according to the depth that a spotlight can penetrate into the jade:

One point of water: Use a focusing flashlight to shine the jadeite from the surface of the jade piece inwards, and the transmittance reaches about 3.3mm.

Two-point water: Use a focusing flashlight to shine the jadeite from the surface inward, and the transmittance reaches about 6.6mm.

Three-point water: Use a focusing flashlight to shine the jadeite from the surface inwards, and the light transmittance reaches about 10mm.

The deeper the light that can penetrate, the better the water head. Generally speaking, jadeite that can reach two-point water head looks very crystal clear.

Type: Type refers to the density of the internal particle structure of jadeite. The denser the structure, the better the type of jadeite. According to the degree of structural density from high to low, it can be roughly divided into glass type, ice type, glutinous type, and bean type. Among them, glass type and ice type are high-end jadeite and are also the most collectible jadeite.

Flaws: Jade is formed naturally and will have more or less flaws. Jade jewelry is divided into four levels according to its clarity: very slight flaws, slight flaws, moderate flaws, and heavy flaws. For jade that is worth collecting, it is recommended to choose jade with slight flaws or above. Flaws such as lines, cracks, debris, and pits do not visually affect the beauty.

Craftsmanship: Jade craftsmanship is an acquired human factor, which will also affect the collection value of jade. Jade jewelry worth collecting must also meet the standards of craftsmanship, such as beautiful contours, good symmetry, appropriate proportions and sizes, and excellent polishing.

Overall impression: In addition to the five unilateral indicators of "type, water, color, workmanship, and flaws", the comprehensive effect of all aspects of jade is also very important. In addition, many jade jewelry also come with specific historical and cultural connotations, as well as factors such as the maker, source, rarity, and innovation, which require investors to consider many aspects.
