Inlay is a production and processing method that allows jade to show its elegance. According to the design, the use of inlaid metal materials can maximize the display of jade's gloss and brightness, and complement the metal texture, making the jade more dazzling.

Generally, inlay requires several raw materials such as precious metals, colored gems and diamonds. Precious metals refer to gold, silver, amber, etc., and colored gems refer to colored gems such as ruby ​​and sapphire. Different raw materials have different charms.

K gold is the most common material for jade inlay. The reason why pure gold is not needed is that pure gold is too soft and not hard enough to be fixed for a long time. K gold adds metals such as silver, copper, and zinc to improve its hardness and toughness. It has stable physical properties, is not easy to oxidize or fade, and has rich colors. It is an excellent inlay material.

Silver is pure white in color, has a strong metallic texture, and is highly ductile, but it is too soft and the surface easily turns black and loses color. Therefore, the silver commonly used for inlay is 925 silver.

Platinum is also a commonly used raw material for jade inlay. Pure platinum is silvery white, charming in color, has a metallic texture, strong ductility, is resistant to melting, friction, and corrosion, has extremely stable chemical properties, and is antioxidant, requiring no complicated maintenance.

Most of the diamonds used in jadeite inlay are broken diamonds, that is, very small diamonds. The crystal clear and sparkling diamonds are arranged and combined with the main stones, and the metallic texture sets off the smoothness of Pei Cui, with excellent effect.

Colored gemstones are common but not necessary inlay materials in jade inlay. Their colors are rich and bright, and they are usually used as the finishing touch or in more luxurious inlays. Rubies and sapphires are the colored gems used in jadeite inlay.

The beauty of jade is integrated with fashion, creating a retro, fashionable and luxurious look or a sweet and elegant look, combined with the good fortune of a "golden and jade marriage". No matter what the occasion, it can make the wearer a beautiful landscape.
