Learn these three tricks, it is not difficult to identify the authenticity of jade with the naked eye

Natural jade (A-grade jade) has a typical glass luster, and looks bright and clear to the naked eye. However, the surface of jade that has been processed by glue injection and bleaching (B, C grade, etc.) has a resin luster, which is dull and even waxy, and has no rigidity at all! "Glass luster" is the basic basis for identifying jadeite with the naked eye.

Tips for identifying the gloss of jadeite: When observing, swing the jadeite back and forth and left and right to feel the strength and uniformity of the jadeite's reflection through the reflected light on the surface.

It is not enough to determine the authenticity by identifying the gloss of jadeite, so it is necessary to identify the structure of jadeite. When looking at the structure of jadeite, the first thing to look at is whether it has the “fly wing” phenomenon. The "fly wing" phenomenon is what we call jadeite properties. It is the symbol of jadeite and an important basis for experts to identify it with the naked eye. Its characteristic is the irregular star-shaped or flaky flashes that appear on the surface or inside of jadeite, which look like "fly" wings.

Tips for identifying "fly wings":

1. Observe on the reflective surface of the jadeite;

2. The observation area should be avoided as far as possible from the area with better polishing;

Note that some high-quality jadeite has a delicate texture and a tight crystal structure, so the “fly wing” phenomenon is not obvious, but their glass luster will be very obvious, so judging by the naked eye requires a comprehensive assessment and cannot be determined solely from a single perspective!

Jade has rich, gorgeous colors, which is also one of the ways we use our naked eyes to identify the authenticity of jade. The color of natural jade is uneven and has color roots. Especially the most precious green, which generally appears in various forms such as dots, veins, filaments, patches, etc. and is accompanied by color roots. Where there is color, there must be a root. This is one of the effective characteristics for identifying jadeite.

Techniques for identifying “color roots”: observe the colored areas on the jade, analyze the color depth distribution, and look for the color source. If the color appears out of thin air or only appears in cracks, it is mostly dyed jade.

In general, the three unique skills that experts use to identify jadeite with the naked eye are "glass luster", "fly wings" and "color roots". The authenticity of jadeite can be determined based on these three characteristics. Once you have mastered these three key points and have more practical experience with jadeite, you will be able to easily tell the authenticity of jadeite at a glance.
