The “one-word difference” in jadeite can save you trouble if you understand it, but you will suffer a great loss if you don’t understand it!

The more you understand jade, the more you feel that it is a profound subject. Especially in terms of industry terminology, some words that look similar may actually represent very different meanings. Once misunderstood, it is very likely to cause losses when purchasing. So today, the editor will talk to you about those jade-specific terms that differ by only one word .

Floating Flower Jade VS Floating Color Jade

Floating flowers refer to the distribution of color on jade . From the appearance, it looks like a piece or a group of scattered colors composed of color roots and color spots. In fact, the green or blue is distributed in the form of silk threads, dots, groups of color spots, and layers on the base of jade.

The color of the floating flowers is the color-causing ions that enter the jade during the formation process of the jade. The distribution of colors that are different from the base color of the jade is called floating flowers . If there is green on the base, it is a green flower, and if there is blue on the base, it is a blue flower.

Floating colors refer to colors on jade that are different from the base color of jade . These colors blend and penetrate each other with the base color of jade. The most typical floating color jadeite is "Spring Color".

Floating flowers should be smart and lively, so that the floating flower jade will look more spiritual. Floating colors are multi-color. The more colors on the same piece of jade, the higher the value and the more auspicious the meaning.

"Fluorescence" vs "fluorescence"

The fluorescence of jade is an optical phenomenon of jade. It means that under certain light, a soft, white, hazy white light can be observed inside the jade with the naked eye. This is the fluorescence produced by jade.

This fluorescence is the product of high-pressure and low-temperature metamorphism of the mineral components in jade. When the jade particles are fine to a certain degree and have good transparency, and then it is carved into a suitable shape later, fluorescence will be produced. Therefore, the stronger the luminescence, the better the quality of the jade.

"Fluorescence" refers to the luminescence phenomenon of jade when it is stimulated by external energy, such as ultraviolet rays. The luminescence stops immediately after the excitation source is withdrawn. This luminescence phenomenon is called fluorescence.

Since B-grade and B+C jadeite are filled with epoxy resin organic glue, they usually fluoresce under ultraviolet light. Jadeite that has not undergone any artificial treatment will not fluoresce!

Fluorescence can be used to identify the quality of jadeite, while fluorescence can be used to identify the authenticity of jadeite . However, some merchants themselves cannot distinguish the meanings of the two words and often use fluorescence as fluorescence. When purchasing, please be sure to ask clearly and confirm with the seller whether the meanings expressed by both parties are consistent.

Jade stone pattern VS jade crack

The stone patterns and cracks of jade are both flaws of jade . Among them, the cracks are called fissures, and the healed cracks are called streaks. The method of identification is to gently run your fingers across the lines. If you feel a click, it means there are cracks on the surface of the jade.

The stone patterns are congenital, appearing in linear or stringy forms with no gaps between them. Similarly , gently run your hand across the veins. If it is a little rough but not uncomfortable or irritating, then it is a stone vein.

Although stone patterns are also flaws, they pose almost no risk of damage to jade. In comparison, cracks are much more harmful and have a great impact on the value of jade. Therefore, it is generally not recommended to buy jade with cracks.

Finally, you must make sure you understand everything before buying jadeite. Don’t be hasty and blind. It is a hard truth to look more and buy less and learn more first. If you have any other jade terms that you don’t understand, please leave a message to ask~
