Jade can not only be bought to wear or collect by yourself, but also to be given as a gift to others. Jade gifts not only have beautiful meanings, but also have certain appreciation potential and can also reflect one's own high taste. So how do we choose jade gifts? 1. Clarify the budget Before purchasing jade gifts, you must first clarify your gift-giving budget, and then buy cost-effective items based on your budget. 2. Pay attention to the meaning When purchasing jade, you must pay attention to the meaning of the jade carvings. You should determine what kind of jade carving you buy based on the person you are giving the gift to. Remember: there are differences between men and women, and between the old and the young . 3. Pay attention to defects Jadeite given as gifts is different from jadeite that you wear or collect yourself. When purchasing jadeite given as gifts, you don’t have to deliberately pursue the quality and color of the jadeite, but you should pay special attention to flaws. This is because many people will mind flawed items when receiving gifts . When purchasing, you must pay attention to the cracks, stone patterns and variegated colors of jadeite. 4. Understand the recipient’s personality Before buying a jade gift, it is important to understand the recipient’s personality and hobbies. This will allow you to buy a treasure that suits the other person and maximize the effect of the gift. 5. Special needs If you have special requirements for jade gifts, you should contact the merchant as early as possible to make each gift as perfect as possible and make the gift-giving experience the icing on the cake. 6. Jade Color When selecting jadeite, you need to consider many aspects such as color, transparency, size of the object, craftsmanship, etc., but the most important point is color. Because only jadeite with pure color, high saturation and complete craftsmanship can truly reflect its artistic value and collection value. Color affects collection value Jadeite, the king of jade, is known as the "Oriental Emerald", so in the eyes of most people, the color of jadeite is green, but this is not the case. The richness of jadeite's colors is unmatched by other gems and jades. In addition to the common green, there are also colorless, white, purple, yellow, black, etc. There are also combined colors composed of two or more colors. In jadeology, there are more than a hundred colors of jade. It can be seen that the rich colors of jade are indeed well-deserved. Because jade comes in many colors, the prices of jade artworks of different colors will also vary. Generally speaking, the purer the color, the better and the higher the price, which is what we often call the "hue" standard, namely positive, deep, positive, and even. Zheng refers to pure color; Shen refers to darker color; Yang refers to bright color; and Ji refers to uniform color. Therefore, under the same quality and size, if the color of the jade artwork is pure, bright, uniform and rich, then it can be considered a top-quality product in terms of both collection value and market value. From an intuitive point of view, green is the best color of jade. The higher the saturation and the deeper the green, the more precious it is. In fact, in addition to green, yellow jade and purple jade (commonly known as violet) are also very valuable, and the value of high-quality yellow jade and purple jade is not inferior to that of green jade. In short, if the jade is expressed in the form of "color" and its selling point is "color", then its value must be relatively high. Collection repositioning "color" When investing in and collecting jadeite, it is understandable to pursue pure, bright, and uniform green color, but jadeite has a variety of colors. Jadeite of other colors, as long as the color meets the standards of positive, deep, positive, and even, are all rare and excellent products. More importantly, as a non-renewable resource, after hundreds of years of mining, green jade with good quality and color has become extremely rare and precious. However, for a long time, jade of other colors has been ignored by everyone, so the price is relatively much cheaper. Green jade is becoming less and less available and its price is getting higher and higher. Jade of other colors is gradually attracting the attention of collectors and investors, leading to an increase in the prices of jade of other colors. In recent years, as the prices of jadeite of other colors have risen, people have begun to reposition their jadeite collections, paying more and more attention to jadeite other than green. In the past 10 years, the overall price of jade has skyrocketed more than 100 times, but in the past two years, the market has undergone new changes. Two or three years ago, an ordinary red jadeite bracelet of average quality cost between 3,000 and 4,000 yuan, but now it costs more than tens of thousands of yuan. The wholesale price of a red jadeite bracelet of better quality is basically tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of yuan. It can be said that with the re-positioning of the jade collection market, "hue" has become another important factor in measuring the value of jade. Although "hue" has become an important value standard for jadeite, don't forget that there is a popular saying in the collecting community: "laymen look at color, experts look at type." The reason is that between two adjacent types, even if the color, size and other conditions are the same, there is a big difference in price, so "type" is the main factor in determining the value of jadeite. The so-called "type" refers to the transparency of jadeite. That is, the more transparent the jade is, the better the quality; conversely, the more opaque the jade is, the worse the quality. The order of jade from good to bad is glass type, ice type, glutinous type, bean type, etc. This is why the prices of glass type and ice type are very high even if they do not have green color. Therefore, when investing in and collecting jade, it is best to make a comprehensive analysis of the material, craftsmanship and "hue", and never pursue color unilaterally.
