Use these 6 jade identification methods, you can only pay the tuition

Are there any tips for identifying jadeite? Some jade lovers say that drops of blood or water can really be used to identify the authenticity of jadeite. Can it be done? The answer is of course no. Now I will introduce to you the common jade identification techniques on the market, and 100% of them have been encountered. In fact, each one is an insult to your IQ.

1. Glass Scratching Identification Method

This identification method is the most common and most often heard of jade identification method among jade lovers. In fact, this identification method is very unreliable. The hardness of natural jade is higher than that of glass. So some jade lovers think that if you scratch the glass with jade, if it leaves a mark on the glass, it is real jade. Indeed, natural jade will definitely leave marks when scratching glass, but some fake jade (dyed quartzite, etc.) can also leave marks on glass. This is because the hardness of glass itself is not very high. As long as something harder than glass scratches the glass, it will leave a mark. Therefore, this identification method is a bit far-fetched and not rigorous. More importantly, if you use real jade to scratch glass, you may cause damage to your beloved jade, which would not be worth it. If you use this method to identify jadeite, the merchants will see that you have just entered the industry and will just wait to pay the tuition fee.

2. Percussion and listening method

This method of jade identification is an unreliable jade identification method that has become popular on short video platforms and live broadcast platforms in recent years. It is a jade identification method passed down from ancient ancestors. I want to say that if this identification method is true, everyone can become an expert in the jade industry. Theoretically, the tighter the structure of the jade, the crisper the sound. B-grade and C-grade jade have loose internal structures and dull sounds due to the color injection. However, on the market, many A-grade jades are soft in texture and do not sound very crisp. B-grade jade, on the contrary, may sound very crisp due to a shorter acid soaking time or partial filling. This situation is very easy to encounter in the jade market, so the identification method of listening to the sound has too much uncertainty. It's easy to waste a lot of money.

3. Licking Jade Identification

I really admire the person who invented this method of jade identification. His imagination is really unique. I heard that if you lick jade with your tongue and the tip of your tongue feels dry, it is real jade. Fake jade will feel very smooth. In fact, the texture and touch of jade has a lot to do with the quality of jade and its polishing process. Jadeite with good water quality and polished to a bright finish will feel very smooth when touched or licked, and has nothing to do with whether it is genuine jadeite. Jade lovers should not believe in this identification method. Once you use this method of identifying jadeite, paying the tuition fee is a matter of minutes.

4. Identification by opening the bubble

It is said that if you heat and soak jade in boiling water, the coloring material of fake jade will fall off, but real jade will remain motionless. This method of jade identification is pure nonsense. We also often hear that putting fake jade in a microwave may not fall off, but will only explode. If you put real jade in boiling water, you can only wait to feel the pain.

5. Identification by dripping water or chicken blood

This method of identifying jade uses the principle that natural jade can cause water to gather. In fact, this method was feasible in the early days, but now that science and technology are advancing rapidly, counterfeiting technology is also improving. Many processed fake jades will also have the phenomenon of water droplets gathering. This identification method is now completely unapplicable.

6. Method of identifying spiritual power by touch

In the early days, there was a method of identifying jadeite, which said that if you put your hand on the jadeite and feel a cool feeling, it is natural jadeite. This method is definitely not feasible. The human body itself has temperature, and when it touches objects of different temperatures, the body temperature will change. But now, this method of jade identification still exists, and it is becoming more and more extreme. Some people claim to be masters and can sense the spiritual power of jade. What I want to say is, if you can confirm whether it is natural jade just by touching it a few times, what is the point of professional identification agencies?
