Top-quality glass-type jadeite, can you buy it for 700 yuan? Don't faint after knowing the truth!

I believe that those who know about jadeite know that

Glass jade has a fine texture, pure and flawless

It has a water that is as transparent as glass.

It is the most expensive and rare variety of jade.

But a friend shared,

One of his friends spent 700 yuan

I bought a piece of glue.

"Glass Jade Pendant"

The picture below is this piece of glass jade with glue

What’s your first impression when you see the picture?

Old, rigid, viscous, clean bottom,

Even the location of the yellow color on the jade

Just right

I feel that the quality of jade is all good

All in it.

Such a beautiful glass jade pendant

It only sells for 700 yuan?

What a treasure I have found!

Some of my friends may be envious!

Let’s take a look at the following exquisite jade bracelet.

There are some unknown objects on this jade bracelet.

The floating flowers don't look like floating flowers, the sprinkled gold doesn't look like sprinkled gold,

Some people say this is water jade

But after careful observation, we can see that

The glossiness of this bracelet is stronger than that of water jade.

The structure is more delicate and firm than water jade

In fact, this is chalcedony.

Jade and chalcedony are very similar in appearance and color

There are often some illegal merchants in the jade market.

Using chalcedony to impersonate jadeite to make huge profits

The reason is that the purchase price and selling price of chalcedony are very low.

Another thing is that jadeite and chalcedony are very similar.

It is difficult for beginners to distinguish

Both jadeite and chalcedony have green color

But look closely at the green of emerald and chalcedony.

There is still a difference

Green chalcedony visually

It feels green with yellow

Moreover, green chalcedony is rare.

Mostly yellow, red, purple, gray, blue

Jade is mainly white and green.

Yellow, red, and purple are the minority

Jadeite is a type of jadeite.

The hardness is between 6.5 and 7.

Jadeite reaching glass grade

The hardness may be 7.5

The hardness of chalcedony is generally around 7.

Slightly lower than emerald

The density of jadeite is greater than that of chalcedony.

Nearly one third more than chalcedony

Glass-grade jade has a compact structure.

Particles are tightly packed

The density of chalcedony is small.

The structure is looser than that of jadeite

In terms of gloss,

Jadeite presents luster.

Rigid

Chalcedony has a waxy luster

Arriving at glass-type jadeite,

Extremely high purity

Ice types other than glass types,

High ice type, or waxy ice type jadeite

There will be some

Impurities such as cotton wool

The purity is not that high

But chalcedony generally has no cotton wool or freezing point

Cotton is also one of the unique characteristics of jade

☝☝☝ Jade

Chalcedony is a mineral.

Also known as "stone marrow"

Chalcedony is actually a type of quartz

Quartz minerals have large reserves around the world.

So the price of chalcedony is compared to

Jade is much cheaper

Its collection value cannot be compared with jadeite.

The price of chalcedony is

From tens to hundreds of yuan

The price of chalcedony can reach several hundred yuan

It's pretty good quality.

Knowing that chalcedony can be used to impersonate jadeite,

So how do you distinguish them?

First, look at the gloss

The luster of jadeite belongs to glass luster

The luster of chalcedony is waxy.

The lustre of all jadeite looks

Brighter than chalcedony

Second, look at the jade quality.

Jade has jadeite properties, but chalcedony does not.

third,

Between the green and other colors of emerald

There is a clear dividing line

If there is green on the jade,

The water head of the green part is generally higher than

Other colors have good water head

Chalcedony has no obvious dividing line.

And there will be no

There is a difference in quality

The color of chalcedony is uniform.

Basically, there will be no uneven depth.

Fourth, through strong light, you can see

The interior of jade is a fiber-woven structure.

The interior of chalcedony is chalcedony.

It is a granular structure.

No emerald green, no visible crystal spots

fifth,

The density of jadeite is greater than that of chalcedony.

When observing,

You can weigh it with your hands.

Jadeite is heavier than chalcedony

sixth,

The refractive index of chalcedony is 1.54.

Smaller than the emerald,

Chalcedony has no characteristic visible light absorption spectrum.

But jadeite does.

This can be verified by a relevant appraisal agency.
