Except for the color, the other characteristics of black jadeite are almost exactly the same as those of jadeite of other colors. Compared with other jadeite, its biggest feature is that it looks black in appearance but shows an attractive green color under transmitted light. Many friends think that when choosing black jadeite, since the surface looks black and they don’t often use lights to look at it, can’t they just pick any one? This idea is wrong. Today Hai Xin will teach you how to choose black jadeite! 1. Look at the blackness The blackness of jadeite can be divided into two categories according to its color: green ink and blue ink. Among them, green ink is of better quality and generally more expensive. The blackness of jadeite is usually observed under natural light. The darker the surface of the jadeite appears, the higher its value! The Guanyin pendant in the picture below is a typical green ink. The ink-black surface is very smooth and shiny. When it is illuminated by light, it turns bright green. The base is clean and transparent. It is definitely a high-quality black jadeite. In contrast, the blackness of the Guanyin pendant in the picture below is not that pure, and it has a faint blue hue, and its overall value is lower than that of green ink. 2. Purity The purity is determined by whether there are cotton wool, dirt spots, cracks and other defects inside the jadeite. You have to use a flashlight to illuminate them to check them out. The fewer flaws, the higher the value. On the contrary, the more flaws there are, the lower the value will be. The black jade Buddha statue in the picture below is of very poor quality. It does not transmit light when it is illuminated, its purity is not high, and its surface does not have a mirror-like gloss, so its value is relatively low. When the light is turned on for the black jadeite pendant at the back, you can clearly see that the overall texture is very delicate and pure. There are almost no flaws visible to the naked eye, and even very few cotton spots. It is of superior quality and generally worth a lot of money! (III) Look at the water quality Many people think that black jade has no water quality. It is all black and opaque, so how can it have any water quality? This is a wrong idea. The water quality of black jade cannot be seen under natural light. You need to use a light to observe whether the quality is fine. It is better if there is no obvious granularity visible to the naked eye and the texture is tight and fine. Generally speaking, a piece of jadeite can be called good if it has the characteristics of being black in color and transparent green, having a clean and hard base, and being old and thick.
