Like a landscape painting, the black-chicken jade is beautiful in a unique way, but many people mistake it for black jade.

When talking about black jade, everyone will think of black jadeite. Indeed, black jadeite is very famous and it is also loved by many consumers, but there is another kind of jade that is also black - black chicken jade.

In fact, there are not many black chicken jadeite raw stones in the public auction in Myanmar. Scarcity makes things valuable. Logically, the price of the scarce black chicken jadeite should be relatively high, but the fact is just the opposite. For a long time in the past, the price of black chicken jadeite has not been high.

Generally speaking, people prefer jade with bright colors, such as green, purple, red, etc. As the name suggests, the color of black chicken jade is mainly gray and black, so it does not have an advantage in color.

In addition, the more common black chicken jade on the market is mainly bean-type, and its transparency and moisture are not high. In the past, when the polishing technology and machine carving technology were not good enough, the gray-black black chicken jade would not look good when made into jewelry.

However, in recent years, black chicken jade has become popular again in the market. Many people believe that black chicken jade will become a dark horse in the jade market. Will black chicken jade appreciate in value? Let’s analyze it together.

feature

Most black chicken jades have uneven hues, sometimes with a gray-green hue. High-quality black chicken jades have a compact structure and a distinct glass luster on the surface, but are mixed with about 2% of other minerals and melanin.

These melanins are usually distributed along the gaps between jade mineral crystals. When there is less melanin distributed inside jade, or it only appears locally, the color of jade will mostly appear grayish white or grayish black.

Although the color of black chicken jade is very special, it is mainly composed of single mineral jadeite like other jades. Its refractive index is also the same as that of ordinary jade, and it will not change because the color is too dark.

Under the transmission of strong light, the color tone of black chicken jade will hardly change, at most it will be slightly lighter.

Because the color of black chicken jade is relatively dark, its black parts are generally opaque to slightly transparent, while the lighter colors are opaque to translucent.

value

At the Pingzhou auction site, a piece of black chicken jade was once sold at an asking price of 1.2 million yuan, which was a low price. However, even the owner had never expected that this piece of black chicken jade would be sold at a sky-high price of 15 million yuan, more than ten times the price.

From then on, everyone began to take a new look at the black chicken jadeite. Many people believed that the value of the black chicken jadeite was immeasurable. After all, it is a kind of jadeite with a relatively small output. If more people paid attention to it, it would immediately be in short supply.

The black chicken jade is not pure black, it may have scattered black spots. Generally speaking, the darker and more evenly distributed the color is, and the better the quality of the black chicken jade, the higher its value.

The quality of black chicken jade jewelry on the market is relatively ordinary, most of which are bean-type. Therefore, the overall price of black chicken jade is not too high, and pendants can be purchased for less than 10,000 yuan.

shape

The base of black chicken jadeite with excellent quality, water and color is transparent and clear, with wisps of ink floating around, as if it were an exquisite, smart and elegant ink painting. The artistic conception is clear and ethereal, and it is the first choice for lovers of traditional Chinese style.

With the rise of the national trend in recent years, many people have been impressed by the poetic and classical artistic conception of black chicken jadeite. When designing black chicken jadeite jewelry, jade carvers are also keen on carving it into landscape Chinese painting themes.

In the past, people believed that black was a color that represented righteousness and nobility, and had the meaning of protecting the body and home, warding off evil spirits and disasters, and bringing peace and wealth. The black chicken jadeite carved into landscape paintings has a flowing and elegant beauty.

In addition to landscape paintings, black chicken jade is also suitable for making themes of more mighty mythical beasts such as dragons and pixiu. The black color will make the mythical beasts look more domineering . Some antique-style black chicken jade jewelry such as snuff bottles are also very popular.

If you use black chicken jade to make a bracelet, people generally choose high-quality raw materials with higher transparency.

The bracelet itself is a large piece. The color of black chicken jade is relatively darker, and black chicken jade with high transparency looks more agile. If the transparency is not high, it will easily appear bulky.

So far, black chicken jade is still a relatively niche jade jewelry, and there are not many consumers who pay attention to black chicken jade. Therefore, its price is relatively affordable at present. If you like it, it is more cost-effective to buy it now.
