The most direct way to identify jadeite when purchasing it - look, touch and weigh it

When buying jadeite, you must understand some basic knowledge about jadeite, and remember not to easily believe some so-called experts. To put it simply, we can first look, then touch, and then weigh.

First look: look at the jadeite's properties, structure, and color

Look at the properties of jadeite: look at the glassy luster of jadeite and the inside and outside structure of the jadeite fly wing.

Look at the structure: look at the texture coarseness and light transmittance of the jade.

Look at the color: color has color root, which can distinguish the foggy color clusters of injected color.

Second touch: touch the feel and texture

The feel refers to the cool green feeling, not the sticky feel of the coating.

Nine out of ten jades have lines. The biggest difference between lines and cracks is to touch the folds in jade with your fingers to feel whether it is uncomfortable.

Three: Weigh

Jade has a strong feeling of pressure. Generally speaking, compared with D-grade jade, jade of the same volume is obviously heavier.

The most important thing when buying jade is the eye for quality. The first impression is often very important. Many people like jade that is particularly bright or full of green. If this type of jade is genuine, it must be top-notch. However, fake varieties are mostly concentrated on these jades. Therefore, when you encounter this type of jade, you must look carefully.
