Black Jade: The “Scholar” among jades, who makes his own voice without making any noise!

Black Jade: The “Scholar” among jades, who makes his own voice without making any noise!

In recent years, black jade has quietly appeared before the world like a mysterious elf. People are often curious about this relatively rare variety of jade, but because they don’t know enough about it, they stay away from black jade.

During communication, I found that many friends often confuse black jadeite and black jade, but this is not the case. Although there is only one word difference, the two can be said to be a matter of seconds. Black jadeite is jadeite, which is a type of jadeite, while black jade is a darker type of jasper and is a type of nephrite.

In ancient times, black jadeite was called Qiluo Jade. It was difficult to mine and was a rare jade. Black jade is the "Confucian" among jades, hidden deep in the city, low-key and introverted, ready to burst forth!

Black jade is the oldest species of natural jade. It is buried dozens or even hundreds of meters below the surface in the deepest part of jade deposits. The reserves are very scarce and mining is extremely difficult.

High-quality black jadeite jewelry is like a perfect man who is virtuous, talented, has good character, is brave and powerful, and is suave and romantic. It is hard to come by.

According to the traditional Chinese theory of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, "black belongs to water, and water can gather wealth." China has long believed that the color black can protect one and ward off evil spirits.

The most amazing thing about black jade is its color change. It shows different colors under different light. It is black in daylight and reflected light, and appears emerald green or dark green under lamplight. Therefore, in northern Myanmar, the hometown of jade, locals call it "lover's shadow."

It is called this because people believe that black jadeite is like the black and shiny hair of fairies in the sky recorded in Buddhist scriptures. It can show different colors under normal light and strong light. It is mysterious and fascinating.

The dark green is lush and verdant, just like you opening up scenes of sealed history; the dark green is calm and peaceful, just like you being steady, masculine, resolute and decisive. What one can appreciate through the hidden beauty of black jade is actually a wise philosophy of how to behave in the world!

The impression given by black jade is deep and restrained, but this does not mean that it only presents itself in terms of its “black” side. More importantly, it is about knowing how to use the unique color and light in your heart to show your own temperament at the right time.

The mountains are painted in thick ink and are deep and secluded. Look at the charm, the water and the moon reflect the whole world in one color; appreciate the nature, the boundless world and the red dust are moist. Although its surface looks black or nearly black, its interior is full of greenery, vitality and connotation.

As Lao Tzu mentioned in the "Tao Te Ching": "The mystery of man is long-standing. That is why the sage is square without cutting, honest without harming, upright without being unrestrained, and shining without being dazzling." This is a kind of attitude towards life that is upright but not arrogant, conforms to the rules, is straightforward and authentic, has no guilt inside, no entanglement outside, and is "relying on it for the sake of doing it".

Black jade displays its beauty silently with its quietness and calmness. At first glance, you may find it difficult to understand or grasp, and you may even feel a sense of haziness, like seeing flowers in the fog. But once you understand it, you will be deeply inspired, as if the clouds have cleared and the sun has appeared.

Then, many beautiful pictures emerged in front of my eyes and in my mind: the bright moon shining among the pines, the clear spring flowing over the rocks; the moon rising and startling the mountain birds, which sometimes sing in the spring stream; it sneaks into the night with the wind, moistening everything silently, etc.

In the darkness, it can live in a corner and sleep quietly, blending in with the environment without standing out.

When placed under the light, your body can emit a green glow that is unique to you. It seems to be quiet, but in fact it can burst out with the energy and rhythm of life at any time due to sufficient accumulation!
