Your jade is dull and lifeless, it may be due to several reasons!

Recently, many jade lovers have complained to the shopkeepers, saying that the jade they bought was bright and shiny at the merchant's counter, but after taking the jade home, after playing with it for a while, it became dull and lifeless , and no longer had the moisture it once had. I don’t know the reason myself, but I hope I can use my experience to analyze several common factors that cause jade to fade.

Jade structure is not good

The structure around jade will directly affect its appearance. Normally, jade with high transparency, such as ice and glass, has a fine texture structure and its overall appearance will always be online. On the contrary, some rough-textured bean-type and glutinous jadeite appear dull and lifeless to the naked eye, although they are also natural jadeite.

Mutation of Jade

A variation refers to an essential change in the quality and texture of jadeite, which may be from good to bad, or from bad to good. This is usually more common in jadeite raw stones. But generally speaking, if the color becomes dull, most of the time you have purchased jadeite of a young quality. It is very beautiful when you buy it, but becomes very dull after it mutates.

Jade friction

There are many jade lovers who like jade, but in daily life, many of them are not particularly delicate in wearing habits, and do not pay attention to maintenance, which may cause jade to rub against other substances. Over time, they will find that the jade seems to have become "dull" . This kind of "dullness" can be re-polished by finding a polishing master, no need to worry.

The jade is not A-grade

This is a rather sad answer. Many jade lovers said that the jade was very beautiful when they bought it, but after wearing it for a few months, it became darker and darker. When they sent pictures, they found out that they had bought B or C grade jade. Because B and C grade jade are achieved through dyeing and filling, the surface will lose its luster over time and its transparency will also decrease.

In fact, there are some other factors that affect the dullness of jade, such as the polishing master not polishing it properly and the jade itself being too dark in color. All these reasons show that we need to put more effort into purchasing and maintenance . It is better to buy one expensive piece than to buy ten bad ones.
