How do novices choose jadeite?


1. Look at the water

“Good quality jade can cover up three flaws” vividly illustrates the importance of jade quality.

Water head, or transparency, refers to the ability of jadeite to transmit visible light. There is a saying in the industry: "Look at the type of bracelet and the color of pendant". This shows the importance of water head in jade bracelets. A bracelet with good water head can make women look younger and more energetic.

The grades from high to low are: old pit glass type, water type, ice type, ice glutinous type, glutinous type, and other types. The quality of other types mainly depends on the color.


2. Color identification

Jade comes in many colors, but the best jade is generally dominated by bright green. However, green means very different things to women of different ages, body shapes, and temperaments. When purchasing, you should choose according to your own preferences. Young women are better off choosing bracelets with brighter colors and good water head to appear youthful, energetic and full of vitality; older women should choose bracelets with slightly darker colors to appear noble, dignified and steady.

The color grades from high to low are: green (imperial green, positive green, apple green), red, yellow, and purple.


3. Look at the craftsmanship

There is a saying that goes "material and craftsmanship are half and half", which means that in a good work of art, the value of materials and craftsmanship each account for half; the quality of craftsmanship and its symbolic meaning both affect the price.

4. other

In terms of size and thickness, jade of the same quality will of course have a higher price for larger and thicker ones; uniformity means that the water and color are evenly distributed, and the better; clarity means that there are no flaws and other colors, the cleaner the better; cracks mean that the better; aesthetics means the overall feeling of the jade object in many aspects, which also varies from person to person.
