Finally found out the reason why jade became uglier than a yellow-faced woman! It's because of these three points

For some jade lovers, there is a problem that has always troubled them. That is, the jade is obviously beautiful when you buy it, but why does it become ugly as you wear it? Did I make a mistake? Got cheated? Or is there another reason?

Look, the picture above is a bracelet that a netizen bought seven or eight years ago. He didn’t wear it for five or six years. As a result, when he took it out again, it became like this, looking like a dirty and yellow-faced woman. But it was clearly not like this when he bought it, right?

So what is the reason? Let me tell you one by one.

Jade becomes ugly due to fakes

Still the same bracelet, let’s take a look at the details:

It can be clearly seen that there are acid etching marks on the surface of the bracelet, which shows that this jade bracelet is a processed BC product . The ugly parts are due to glue injection and wax sealing. It looked good at the time, but now that the shelf life has expired, its true appearance has been revealed.

This is like a beautiful woman who has had plastic surgery. Not only will there be traces of the surgery, making her look unnatural, but she will also deteriorate over time . Therefore, whether it is a person or jade, natural beauty is better.

Improper maintenance of jadeite makes it ugly

Of course, pure natural jade will also become ugly, mostly due to maintenance issues.

For example, water running.

Some jades are quite moist when they are first bought, but after not being worn for a long time, the moisture will slowly be lost and they will become dry and yellow.

It's like a teenage girl with tender and tender skin. If she doesn't take good care of herself, her skin will become dry and yellow when she is in her thirties. So when you apply a facial mask to yourself, remember to soak it in jade water.

Another example is wax falling off.

Some jadeite is worn all the time. According to the saying that people take care of jade, it should become more and more smooth. How come it can become uglier?

This is caused by the falling off of the "wax layer" on the surface of jade.

In the processing of jade products, there is a process called polishing and waxing, which not only makes the jade look more lustrous, but also forms a protective film to prevent erosion by sweat and chemical reagents.

However, wearing it for a long time cannot avoid various frictions with clothes, skin, etc. Gradually, the wax layer on the surface of the jade is "worn off", and the natural luster is not as bright as at the beginning. In the final analysis, it is because of poor maintenance.

Jade becomes ugly and old

In addition to improper maintenance, there is another reason why natural jade becomes ugly, and that is mutation .

Mutation refers to the essential change in the quality and texture of jade , which generally changes from good to bad . Scientifically speaking, variant jade is a variety in which old and young species coexist, which is caused by imperfect development during the mineral formation process. The younger the jade, the easier it is to mutate.

We usually classify jadeite with loose and unstable internal structure as "tender species", such as bean-ground and glutinous ground.

Because the gaps between the internal crystal particles are too large, the moisture inside is easily lost, and it will become drier and drier if worn for a long time and exposed to the air.

Not only are the large gaps between particles unable to retain moisture, but they also make it easier for wax to enter the interior when sealing. When the surface wax layer falls off, the wax filling inside is oxidized and more likely to turn yellow.

Old-type jade refers to high-grade jade such as ice and glass. Because it has been fully developed, its internal structure is compact, its texture is stable, and it is not easy to change.

This type of jade has one obvious thing in common, which is good water content.

Because there are almost no cracks between the structural particles, moisture is not easy to escape. And the longer you wear it, the more moisturized and beautiful it will become due to the sealing of human body oil, and it is almost impossible to mutate.

It should be noted that mutation does not occur in a short period of time, and not all jade that becomes ugly can be attributed to mutation . In fact, some ugly "jade" is not jade at all, but mutant stone.

Variant stones, which are associated minerals of jade, look very similar to jade, but have different internal structures. Such stones as water foam, tumbler, magnesium jade, siliceous jade, Weijiang stone, and dragon stone are often used to impersonate jade.

Similarly, these variant stones have loose structures and large gaps between internal particles. They are prone to turning yellow and drying out over time and are almost worthless.

Now you know how the bracelet is made. If you want the jade to be beautiful forever, first, you must ensure that it is natural jade, preferably high-grade natural jade. Second, you must take good care of it, so that it can remain beautiful forever.
