What is the wax boiling for jade bracelets?

What is the wax boiling for jade bracelets? Boiling wax for jade bracelets is the last optimization process in the processing link. After the bracelet is polished, it is soaked in melted paraffin wax, then cooled and wiped dry before it can be sold to you. Why do we need to boil wax? Because boiling will make some jade bracelets with poor quality and defects look brighter, more transparent and more perfect.

After boiling wax, the small cracks and defects on the surface will no longer be visible. Are all jade bracelets boiled with wax? Basically everyone knows how to do it, but boiling wax only has an obvious effect on jadeite of poor quality. For old jadeite, the effect of boiling wax is minimal because the crystal particles are finer and more compact.

Can the bracelet made of boiled wax still come with a test certificate? For the same reason as before, old jadeite will not be invaded by paraffin wax and will not affect the detection at all. However, if poor quality jadeite is over-boiled with wax, rigorous testing agencies cannot issue an A-grade certificate. Will the effect of boiling wax last forever? No, it will gradually disappear due to different water types and environments.

This is why many of my friends’ bracelets are shiny and transparent when they buy them, but become dry and change color after a while. Everyone says that this is a mutation of the jade. I think it’s just that the effect of boiling the wax has disappeared. It’s the same principle as the difference between putting on makeup and removing makeup for a beautiful woman.
