The "three waters" in jadeite, distinguish them clearly so as not to buy the wrong ones

In the jade circle,

It is often called "Three Greens and Three Waters".

Sanqing has already told you all before,

Today I will talk to you about Sanshui.

Which three waters are they?

Three waters:

Blue Water & Green Water & Clear Water

Water, that is, water head,

It is a professional term in the jade industry.

Refers to the transparency of jadeite.

The more transparent the jade is, the better the water head is

The three waters refer to the glutinous rice and above.

Blue water, green water, clear water

▲Blue Water Jade

Blue Water,

In simple terms,

It's blue emerald

Fine texture, uniform color

Like the blue of the sea, or like a blue ghost,

It also has the luxury of high-grade aquamarine.

It is full of spirituality and beauty, making people indulge in reverie.

▲Blue Water Jade

Blue water jade also has different levels.

The purer the blue, the better the appearance and the higher the value.

On the contrary, the colors that are gray, green, and dull are not so popular.

As for the pure glass blue water, it is a rare and exquisite product.

The value is not inferior to the Yang color jadeite

▲Blue Water Jade

Due to the good overall uniformity,

Blue Water is mostly made of jadeite and large, thick pendants.

Depending on the depth of the color,

In recent years, there are a few Internet celebrities in the blue water.

For example, "sky blue", "denim blue", "sea blue", etc.

Overall,

The collection value of good blue water jade is still very high

Green water,

Likewise, as the name suggests,

It refers to the green jadeite.

But it is different from real green jadeite.

It is a light green color with no color root and a yellow tinge.

Green water is relatively rare.

Not as famous as Blue Water,

In terms of value, it is not as good as green jadeite of the same quality.

But its color is gentle and elegant,

It is also a cost-effective alternative

▲Green Water Jade

Clear water,

Unlike the first two colors,

The color of clear water is between blue and green

The color is pleasing to the eye, pure, bright and light, and the color and ground blend well.

The color is soft and even, with the spirituality of water, like a clear sky

▲Qingshui Jade

The poetic interpretation is,

Sunny, it is sunny after the rain,

Water is moist and transparent.

Qingshui, just like clear water on a sunny day,

Pure, elegant, lustrous, shallow, beautiful

▲Qingshui Jade

at last,

Why is it customary to mention Sanshui and Sanqing together?

This is because Sanshui is also oily green in nature.

It is also recognized as the best oil green variety.

It was separated from the oily green variety only because of its good appearance and popularity.

Even the name sounds much better than Youqing.

Just like green water jade is also called oily green and green

▲Qingshui Jade

So when you buy,

Remember to recognize the essence of Sanshui and face its shortcomings.

For example, sometimes it appears gray.

We must also learn to appreciate its unique beauty
