Seven tips to avoid pitfalls when purchasing jadeite rough stones

Seven tips to avoid pitfalls when purchasing jadeite rough stones

So, let's take a closer look:

①First of all, when we buy jadeite raw stone, the most basic basic homework is to look for the surface of the jadeite raw stone to see whether there are tinea, roughness, loose flowers, cracks and so on. If the first three of these manifestations are present, it means that there may be green under the epidermis.

② When purchasing large jadeite rough stones, you should pay attention to the fact that we usually choose to rub the small edges of large jadeite rough stones. However, if you find green at the edges, you should be careful, as this may be fake by unscrupulous merchants. If the surface of the jadeite raw stone appears to be very average, then you have to buy it at the standard of low-priced brick material.

③ Be careful when the jadeite raw stone has good green edges, broken edges, cut edges, rubbed edges, etc. but has not been polished. Because such raw stone materials often have many cracks, gray bottom, irregular green color, poor water quality, black inside the green, etc., they are not polished.

④ When we look at the texture of jadeite raw stone, especially the texture of high-end raw stone, we will find that some jadeite raw stones have been left with many traces of friction or digging when the owners were looking for green on the raw stones. However, these traces are actually areas without green. If you can see traces of green everywhere on this jadeite raw stone, you should be more careful.

⑤ When we see a large area of ​​green at the cut of the jadeite raw stone or as a whole, we must be careful. This state feels like full green. There is a saying in the jadeite industry: "I'm not afraid of a line, I'm only afraid of a large area" to describe it.

⑥ If you come across a jadeite raw stone that has had a piece cut off, you must carefully study the small piece before purchasing it. There is often a lot of information on it that can help you judge the quality of the jadeite. And we also need to observe from the seams between the two pieces to see if there is a possibility of large areas of green extending into the flesh.

⑦If you want to buy purely green material, then you should understand the impact of the water quality on the goods, because there may be color differences after the finished product. If there is a slight deviation, you may not be able to make a profit. For example, some jadeite raw stones can have natural light penetrate into within a few millimeters, and the stone appears to be very beautifully green, crystal clear, but it often cannot be made into high-end ring faces because if it is made into a ring face it may become light green or colorless. Therefore, it is important to grasp the relationship between green and water, and use thickness to adjust the optimal thickness of the water color of the jadeite raw stone.

So in the end, we should pay attention to starting with small materials when purchasing jadeite raw stones, accumulate more experience and then make large investments, so as to avoid incurring excessive losses. Moreover, the jade industry requires boldness, carefulness and independence, so have you got these purchasing tips?
