Analysis of the causes of jadeite fading

I saw some jade lovers on the Internet saying that their jade faded after wearing it for a long time, and the color became dull and lifeless. So why does jade fade?

1. Add polishing powder

Some businessmen will add a substance called polishing powder to jade. Jade with added polishing powder has a stronger glassy luster on the surface, but after being worn for a long time and being washed away by water, sweat and other external substances, the polishing powder will slowly fade away.

When it fades, the color of the jade itself will be revealed, and the entire jade will appear changed.

2. The jadeite you bought is fake

There are many B-grade and B+C-grade jadeite on the market that are filled with glue and dyed. These artificially added things will definitely change over time.

If you find that your jade is not A-grade jade, you must not wear it. The acidic substances in fake jade can cause certain harm to the human body.

Jadeite becomes solid jadeite after a long period of mineralization underground. The texture of new pit jade is not that tight and the price is relatively low. This kind of jade may have a little change after being worn for a long time, some very small changes that are difficult to detect with the naked eye.

3. Psychological Effects

After wearing jade for a long time, perhaps the sweat has affected the glossiness of its surface, but you will find that after rinsing, the jade returns to its original gloss.

(Color difference under different light)

Jade will have different luster under different light. Jade will show different luster under white light, yellow light and natural light. Therefore, the feeling that jade gives people is different due to different light sources.
