"Water-rich goods" generally refers to those jade materials that are old and have long water content. They are full of water, icy and translucent, giving people a sense of elegant and clear beauty. The more water content and the higher the transparency of jade, the higher its value. As the saying goes, "The more water, the more value increases by ten taels." This is the truth.


The raw materials of jadeite can be divided into old mines and new mines. Generally speaking, jadeite produced from old mines has a denser, finer, harder texture and more water. The old mine is rich in high-quality jadeite, which is old and fine in quality, and has a relatively high transparency, giving people a feeling of ice and jade purity.


The reason why jade appears in rich and diverse colors is that it contains coloring elements during its formation process. For example, the green color of jade is caused by chromium. When the chromium content is too low, it appears light green. When the chromium content is too high, it appears dark green.
