There is one thing you must understand clearly about jadeite and jadeite if you don’t want to be cheated!

Many jade lovers buy jade with the idea of ​​finding a bargain. Here, one jade lover said that she had found a big bargain. She got a jade bracelet worth millions for only 200,000!

Although the picture is blurry, you can still see that the color is very rich, full green, and the water quality is also good. If it is really A-grade, I would still believe it if it is priced at several million. I can buy it for 200,000, which is really a bargain.

However, I believe that friends with sharp eyes can also notice that the glossiness of this bracelet is a bit wrong, it should be a B-grade product. But the jade friend was very confident and took out a certificate.

However, what is strange is that the appraisal result on the certificate was not jadeite, but jadeite!

The jade friend said that the seller explained to her that jadeite is jadeite.

...Let’s not talk about whether this certificate is real or fake. If that’s the case, why not just write “Jadeite”?

There is no doubt that this jade lover was deceived by the seller.

Because jadeite is not the same as jadeite. So what is the relationship between jadeite and jadeite? Let me tell you in detail.

Three different meanings of "Jade"

1. Broad sense:

In a broad sense, all green jades can be collectively referred to as jadeite .

For example, Australian jade, green Malayan jade, green aventurine, green albite jade, green agate, green chalcedony, green malachite, green prehnite, etc. can all be generally called jadeite.

2. In a narrow sense:

In a narrow sense, jadeite refers to the green variety of jadeite . Other varieties such as purple jadeite and yellow jadeite are not called jadeite. This name comes from the China-Myanmar border area.

However, the belief that Cuiyu is the abbreviation of jadeite is a wrong perception extended from a narrow sense.

3. Ancient meaning:

The word "jadeite" has a long history in China. As the name suggests, it should refer to some kind of green jade. But let alone the jadeite of unknown reference, even the jadeite clearly mentioned in "I lazily tidy up my fallen hairpins with golden jadeite, and comb my sideburns with moon-like clouds" is difficult to confirm that it refers to the jadeite of today, because with the passage of time, many words have long lost their original meaning.

Historical materials like this can be used as research on the historical origins of jade, but they lack rigor when used for identification.

To sum up, whether in a broad sense or a narrow sense, or in the ancient sense, jadeite cannot be directly equated with jadeite. Any formal appraisal certificate will directly say "jadeite" if it is jadeite, and will not write "jadeite" vaguely.

Since many people cannot distinguish the difference between the meanings of "jadeite" and "jadeite", this has become an opportunity for unscrupulous businessmen to skirt the rules, deliberately switching concepts and misleading consumers into thinking that the so-called "jadeite" is jadeite, thus being deceived.
