So how do you choose jade beans?

Tips for choosing jade green beans

1. Lines

The most important point in determining whether the shape of jade beans is good or not is whether the lines are smooth and natural. If the lines are stiff, it will give people a dull feeling. The overall shape and size are also very important. The shape and size should transition naturally, and should not be larger in the middle and smaller at both ends. The tail part of the bean should have a natural transition, neither too round nor too pointed. These determine the beauty and appearance of the jade bean to a certain extent. Pay more attention to it when purchasing.

2. Shape and size

The beans should be round and full, without any edges or small faces. The shape of the beans should be close to that of a sphere. If they are too long, they will not feel full, and if they are too flat, they will not feel round. All these will affect the overall beauty. The size of the beans is also important. For example, if there are three beans, the top one is small and the bottom one is large, and the one in the middle is between the two or the same size as the one at the bottom.

3. Look at the color and water quality

Whether the lines of the jade beans are smooth and whether the shape and size are reasonable are determined by the carving. In addition to good carving, we must also pay attention to the quality of the jade beans themselves. This is nothing more than looking at the quality of the jade, that is, the color of the water, the degree of defects, etc. Full green or ice type and above are the best products, and the price will be relatively higher. The higher the transparency, the better the quality, the better the gloss, and the brighter the color, the better.

4. Look at the defect characteristics

Pay attention to whether the jade beans have cracks. Cracks are fatal flaws. Common cracks feel like scratching, which have a huge impact on the value of the jade itself.

In addition, some cotton wool, associated minerals, etc. are also some natural characteristics of natural jade. Of course, the less these characteristics there are, the more precious the jade is. However, from another perspective, the existence of these characteristics also indirectly proves the naturalness of jade, so we must look at these characteristics rationally.
