Why do you need to look at the lighting when buying jadeite? Distinguish true from false, check for defects...simple and reliable!

Everyone has heard that jade should not be looked at under the lamp.

But not everyone knows the necessity of looking at jade with a lamp.

In fact, the skill of lighting

It is widely used in gambling on stones and sales of finished products.

For these experts,

Carrying a flashlight with you is an excellent weapon

Of course, the same is true for lighting.

The functions and techniques of looking at the rough stone and the finished product are completely different

Today I will share with you,

Why do we buy jade?

Do you have to look at the lighting?

Function 1: Distinguish true from false

Many new buyers cannot distinguish between the real and the fake.

It is even the most troublesome problem for old players.

And learn to be good at looking at the lights,

This can be solved to a large extent

Real product: fly wings, orange peel texture

One of the characteristics of natural jade is its jade quality.

There are two aspects of the jadeite nature:

One is orange peel pattern; the other is fly wing

In reflective conditions,

You can see that the surface of jade is like orange peel.

Bumpy and uneven.

This is orange peel.

However, the limitation is that

Orange peel can only be seen on unpolished

Or it can be easily seen on jadeite of ordinary quality.

It is difficult to observe high-quality jadeite above ice grade.

Likewise,

Under reflective conditions, gently turn the jadeite.

You can see little white flashes.

This is the fly wing

Generally speaking, with these two points,

This proves that this piece of jade is natural jade.

Fake: Acid etching

Fake jade is acid-washed and injected with glue.

The surface will form cracks like spider webs.

This is called "acid etching"

It is different from cellulite.

The concave and convex parts of the cellulite have a smooth transition.

The acid etching marks appear as fractures.

Once acid etching is observed on the surface of jadeite

It can basically be concluded that it is a fake

Function 2: Check for defects and bargain

In addition to distinguishing true from false,

The more important purpose of lighting is to observe defects.

For example, cracks, cotton, black spots, etc. in jade

Under the strong light of a professional flashlight,

You can clearly see the internal structure of the jade.

All imperfections are clearly visible

Although it is often said,

"Nine out of ten jades have patterns" and "No cotton, no jade"

But in most cases,

Texture or cotton,

As long as it affects the beauty

The value will be greatly affected.

Not to mention the most terrible crack

By turning on the light,

If any defects are found,

If you can accept it,

Not only should you be mentally prepared in advance,

You can also bargain with this~

In addition, when you turn on the light,

In addition to 360-degree observation of defects,

If it is a well-set jadeite,

You can also open the inlaid back cover to see,

This way you can see the actual thickness of the jade

Prevent some thin water materials,

Small tricks such as padding paper to add color to deceive ~

In short, whether it is to go to offline physical stores,

Or buy jadeite through live broadcast,

Remember to check the goods yourself or ask the anchor to turn on the light~
