The traces of time left on jade cannot erase people's love for jade. However, loving jade does not mean understanding jade. Experts say that currently most people have many misunderstandings in jade appreciation. Only by getting rid of these misunderstandings can we better appreciate the beauty of jade. Now let’s take a look at the seven common misunderstandings in the process of jade appreciation. 1. The more uniform the green, the better In the market, you can often see some jadeite that is emerald green all over, with bright color and very even distribution. In fact, most of such jadeite is fake. Only B-grade products have such uniform color The interior of jade is composed of a collection of granular minerals, so its green color is locally distributed, and there is a boundary between green and non-green. The green color formed by natural jade is not so uniform, but it is very natural. 2. Paper-based identification technology Jade optimization processing technology is changing with each passing day, but the knowledge in books is often lagging behind. If you buy B-grade or fake jade according to the identification methods in the book, it may be because the market has invented a new processing technology that has not yet been summarized and published in a book. 3. The ones that do not change color are A-grade goods Some dyed jade can maintain its bright color for up to 10 to 20 years, while some A-grade jadeite red or jadeite yellow may change color in a relatively short period of time, mainly due to changes in the chemical elements inside the jade. Although young jade is A-grade jade, it is easy to mutate. Its structure is loose and the liquid adsorbent between the crystal gaps is easy to evaporate, causing it to lose its "water head" and become "dry". On the other hand, old jade bracelets have high density, full water head, strong wear resistance and good durability, and are generally not easy to mutate. 4. Green Jade is Good Emerald green jade is the best quality among A-grade jade, but not all jade is green. There is a kind of jade that forms a bright "jade" color due to the infiltration of iron. Such jade is also very popular in the market if it has high transparency and good texture. When buying jade, don’t just pursue green. Jade has many kinds of green, not to mention that jade has many colors! 5. The older the jade, the better Many collectors are particular about collecting "ancient jade", but there is no distinction between "ancient" and "modern" jadeite collection. Jade was introduced into China during the Qing Dynasty. At that time, there were not many jade raw materials and the identification ability was poor, so the quality of jade that was older was relatively poor. The aesthetic taste of each era is different. We now like ice type, which is a gradually awakening aesthetic taste. Just like the Tang Dynasty liked plump beauties and the Song Dynasty liked slender beauties, different aesthetic tastes naturally led to different popular factors. Jadeite Gift ▼ The ancients still preferred the mellow and restrained feeling of Hetian jade, and even still preferred white. Jadeite with a white or bluish-white base can just meet this demand, so a large number of white-based bluish-white jadeite emerged in the Qing Dynasty. When we look at jadeite now, the quality of the jadeite comes first and the color comes second. However, have you noticed that almost none of the ancient jadeite is of good quality? 6. The more complex the process, the better “Simplicity is beauty.” Many high-quality jades are often made into very simple bracelets or ring faces without any carving; while some jades with impurities or cracks are often carved into figures or scenes by skilled craftsmen to cover up their natural imperfections. Especially bracelets, those with good materials are basically made into round bracelets, and carved bracelets are bound to have some flaws. 7. The rarer the item, the more valuable it is Natural minerals sometimes form some very special patterns. For example, some minerals are arranged in shapes similar to animals or mountains and rivers. Some collectors often hype this kind of jade as a rare treasure. In fact, in addition to being rare, this kind of jade must conform to aesthetic principles and have good texture to be truly "valuable."
