With the development of the jade market and the spread and popularization of jade culture, jadeite, a new historical star, has gradually entered everyone's field of vision. It is also deeply loved by everyone because of its rich colors and restrained luster. The authenticity of jade has always been a concern for everyone. Some people will use jade to scratch the counter glass when purchasing jade, thinking that if it can scratch the glass, it must be real. In fact, this is not the case. The hardness of jade can reach 7 on the Mohs hardness scale, while the hardness of glass is only 5. Jade can definitely scratch glass, but something that can scratch glass is not necessarily jade. Some people say that my jade was passed down from the older generation, so it must be authentic, because technology was not as advanced as it is now and it could not be faked. In fact, fake jade was the most common in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. Because jade had just become popular among the public at that time, people only knew that jade was colorful and beautiful, and their awareness of it was just decoration. Few people cared about its authenticity, which led to the proliferation of fake jade (B-grade and C-grade). Many of the jades handed down from that period were made of jadeite raw stones with very poor quality, which the industry called brick materials. They were chemically treated and colored, and were not naturally formed jade. Jade that has been chemically treated and color-injected appears more transparent and has brighter colors, and is deeply loved by people, while real natural jade is ignored. As the saying goes in the industry: a piece of brightly colored fake jade placed among a pile of real jade is very eye-catching, while a piece of real jade placed among a pile of fake jade is indeed inconspicuous.
