Will the green color in jade really last? The authoritative statement is here!

I often hear people say that the green in their jade has grown again...

what? Could it be that the jade has transformed into a monster and has life?

Green actually grows with time? ?

In fact, it is not that the color inside the jade has really "grown". Studies have shown that the green on jade has no life and, under normal circumstances, will not change.

The main mineral of jade is called sodium pyroxene. Once chromium is added, pure sodium pyroxene will appear green. Therefore, whether natural jade is green or not is related to whether the element "chromium" is added inside the jade when it is formed. The more "chromium" element there is, the greener the color of the jade will be.

Jade jewelry is a product made from pure natural jade. The "chromium" content inside it is relatively fixed, and its green color should not change.

However, under special circumstances, the "green" of jade jewelry will indeed show signs of slightly expanding.

People feel that the green color becomes "longer", which is actually because a small amount of chromium inside the jewelry has diffused. The jade jewelry that produces the "longer" green color mainly includes jade necklaces, jade bracelets, jade pendants and other jade jewelry that are in close contact with the skin.

Why is there such a change?

The most generally accepted explanation at present is that because the human body has a certain temperature and people sweat when they are hot, the acidic and alkaline components in the sweat will penetrate into the jade through the micro cracks in the jade jewelry.

These components may react chemically with the chromium ions, causing them to diffuse out little by little, or dissolve the chromium ions that have already solidified in the jade and cause flow migration. In this way, the green color of the jade appears to become "longer" and "bigger", as if the green inside the jade has life and has grown.

Apart from some changes in the green color and slight changes in the pattern of the jewelry, its value remains unchanged.

Myanmar is the kingdom of jade. 95% of the world's jade is produced in Myanmar. Although other regions also produce jade, only Myanmar produces jade that reaches gem grade. The formation conditions are very harsh. It has been formed in a complex environment for billions of years and has a very stable structure.

People wear it for decades, which is not a short time, but to make the green color change, I can only say that it is possible, but really difficult.

Buying jade is a matter of fate, and you cannot insist on perfection. No one is perfect, let alone jade. I hope everyone will not miss the chance because of over-demanding! Choose a jade that satisfies your needs, and the more you wear it, the more beautiful it will become. The rest depends on fate and luck...
