Do you understand the relationship between “color suppressing quality” and “quality suppressing color” of jadeite?

In the jade market, we often hear experts say "color suppresses quality" or "quality suppresses color". Many consumers are curious, what does this mean?

Color Pressing

In fact, its color has not changed at all, it’s just that the water droplets on it block our view, and the same is true for the water head of jade.

However, the water is so abundant that we seldom notice its color. To put it bluntly, the water quality steals the show from the color.

Color Pressing

The opposite is true for color-pressed jade. The color of some jade is too rich, and at first glance it seems that the transparency is very low, or even a little turbid.

The feeling that color gives people is very intuitive. When we see a piece of jade, the first thing we notice is its color.

Therefore, when we look at full-color jadeite, it is always difficult to correctly judge its water quality, and we often mistake full-color icy jadeite for glutinous jadeite.

The Dilemma of Color

The color of glutinous jade is very rich, but it has almost no transparency. If it is more transparent, its color will be greatly diluted.

When the quality of purple jade is relatively high, its color will become extremely light, and even appear colorless under the sun.

It is precisely because the situation of quality suppressing color and color suppressing quality is very common that it is difficult for us to see jadeite with both good quality and water.

Do you all know the relevant knowledge about jadeite type pressure color and color pressure type?

Next time you buy or appreciate jade, you must learn to correctly judge its color and water quality.
