Today, Consultant Zhao is going to talk to jade lovers about the “three waters” of jade !

“Three Waters”, some jadeite may not understand, is Three Waters the water head of jadeite?

No, no, no, the “three waters” is not only a description of the color and texture of jadeite, but also plays an important role in measuring the quality, water and color of jadeite!

Each of the “Three Waters” is not simple!

Why do I say so? Keep reading!

"Three Waters" refers to clear water, blue water and green water.

When mentioning these "waters", we have to mention their predecessor: Youqing.

Oil green jade is generally called oil green variety. Its transparency and luster look oily. Qingshui, blue water and clear water are variants of oil green jade.

Generally, Oily Green Jade belongs to the medium and low-grade jade, but "Sanshui" Jade is the high-quality jade among the Oily Green Jade.

On the basis of high-quality water quality, the green color of the oily green jadeite is called Qingshui, the blue color is called Lanshui, and the green color is called Lushui.

What are the differences between these “three waters” and what are the differences in their values?

Don’t worry~ Liangyuan will give you the answer right now!

Clear Water

Doesn’t the name Qingshui sound very poetic? Haha~ Qingshui is also called Qingshui bottom, which can be glass type, ice type or ice glutinous type.

The color of clear water is light blue and light green, which is between blue water and green water. It looks very clean, even and soft, just like the sky after rain, very beautiful.

Summary: Qingshui jade is old, with delicate and clean color and base, and some of it even fluoresces. The value of Qingshui jadeite in the market is medium.

Blue Water

Blue water jade has a transparent texture, good water content and a bluish base color. The color of blue water jade is like sea water, which makes people unforgettable.

In blue water jadeite, floating flowers are rarely seen, and the pure blue ones are high-end jadeite.

Summary: Blue Water Jade is old, rigid, fine-textured and full of water. Blue Water Jade with a sunny color is more valuable and is considered high-end jade, while Blue Water Jade with a grayish color is less valuable and is considered mid- to low-end jade.

Green Water

Green Water Jade is much greener than the other two types of jade, but it has a grayer tone than the others.

Green Water Jade is generally of the glutinous variety or above, with basically no impurities and a clean, pure and transparent base.

Summary: Green Water Jade is relatively emerald green in color, has a fine texture, uniform color, and is of high value.

In general, "Sanshui Jade" has its own characteristics and different values. Everyone has different aesthetic tastes and their own favorite jadeite.

O(∩_∩)O Haha~ Jade lovers can now clearly distinguish the "three waters" of jade!
