Can a bracelet buy a house in Beijing’s school district? Why are top-grade jade bracelets so expensive?

How many school district houses in Beijing can you buy with a top-grade jade bracelet?

Over the past three decades, the price of jade bracelets has continued to increase by 30% to several times. From 2009 to the end of 2011, the price increased by several to dozens of times. Since the second half of last year, the price of jade bracelets has continued to rise, and the price of top-grade jade bracelets has exceeded 100 million yuan.

Why are top-grade jade bracelets so expensive?

First of all, when a piece of raw material is placed in front of a jade carver, he will first consider how to cut out more bracelets, and then consider using other cut materials to make other small accessories, such as ring faces, pendants, etc. This is the reason why jade bracelets are so expensive.

Secondly, the raw materials of jade bracelets cannot have obvious cracks and defects. A naturally formed jadeite raw stone is bound to have some flaws, so jade carving masters will often make bracelets of varying sizes in order to avoid cracks and flaws on the raw material. Larger bracelets are often more expensive because they use more material.

The bracelets are similar in size, but the prices are very different?

The amount of material used to make a bracelet will increase accordingly. Since the amount of material used has increased, it means that a larger, flawless jadeite stone is needed, so its price will be more expensive.

Moreover, according to the custom in the industry, when experts buy raw materials, they estimate the price of the raw materials based on the maximum number of bracelets that can be produced. Therefore, bracelets are also a weather vane that influences the jade market. When the price of raw materials increases, bracelets will be the first to increase in price.

Jade bracelets can be said to be the dream of the gambling stone merchants! Here we analyze a classic case:

Some suggestions for collecting jade bracelets:

1. Take the type, water and color as the focus of collection. You might as well plan the type, water, color, and workmanship (including subject matter) of the jade bracelet, and collect them based on the focus: for example, classify the type and water into one category (the older the type, the finer the water), and collect glass-type, ice-type, egg white-type, fine glutinous-type, and bean-type jade bracelets separately, just like specimens of various types; another category of jade bracelets is mainly based on color, which can include green jade, red jade, violet, black jade, etc., which are subdivided into red series, green series, and purple series. The type and water do not have to be divided into glass or ice types, because if the color falls on these two types, the price will soar, and the fine glutinous type material is also very good.

2. The collection is mainly based on old pit jadeite. In the collection, you will also encounter the problem of old pit jadeite and new pit jadeite. The most important thing is whether the piece you choose is old, because there will be tender materials produced in old mines, and old materials will also be produced in new mines. 3. When collecting jade bracelets, you must be able to distinguish between A-grade, B-grade and C-grade jade bracelets. Be sure not to collect "optimized" B-grade, B+C-grade or C-grade jade bracelets. Because it cannot be hidden after collection, after ten or eight years, the colloid will age and crack, and its color will decompose and change. Also, pay attention to natural jade materials such as agate, glass, terrazzo, Australian jade, serpentine, Henan jade, Dushan jade, etc. that imitate jadeite, because some of them are similar in color and some in texture, but they do not have the corresponding specific gravity of jadeite.

Jade raw materials are created by nature and are ever-changing. No two pieces are the same. Even the same piece of material can have different types, water content, and colors. In addition, due to hand-carving, there are only a few that can be matched. This highlights the uniqueness of jade jewelry. When we choose, we must be patient. At the same time, in the process of selection, the thing that attracts you at first sight is often the one you like most, and that is fate.
