Jade is so beautiful from the story of Yanxi Palace

In the Qing Dynasty, not everyone could wear jade! After searching through all the episodes of Story of Yanxi Palace, I found that only Fucha, the little favorite, wore jadeite! There is a Chinese proverb: "A person takes care of jade for three years, and jade takes care of a person for a lifetime." When it comes to jade, the first thing that comes to mind may be jadeite. However, jadeite is indeed a type of jade, but not all jade is called jadeite.


Jadeite, its real scientific name is jadeite. In ancient times, jade came from a bird that lived in the south. It had very beautiful feathers, usually in colors such as blue, green, red, and brown. Generally, the male of this bird is red, called "fei", and the female is green, called "cui".

So, what kind of jade is good jade?

Then we have to start from the four aspects of "color, species, water, and craftsmanship"

Jade comes in a variety of colors, and of course, green is the best! There are also evaluation criteria for color.

It can also be summed up in four words: "positive, thick, positive, uniform"

Positive: pure green, slightly yellowish green, with blue-green, with yellowish green, slightly grayish green, with grayish green

Thick: thick, thicker, very thick, slightly thick, slightly thin, very thin

Yang: Brightness. The brighter the color, the better. Just like people's skin color, white people also have different degrees of whiteness.

Uniform: The degree of uniformity of distribution. The more uniform the better. Just like when we apply foundation on our makeup, of course the more evenly the foundation is applied, the better!

That’s all for today! Jade has always been the leader in jewelry street since ancient times! As a gift from nature to mankind, after being meticulously carved, what we feel is the heaviness that has been accumulated over time. In everyone’s impression, are jadeites only worn by mothers and grandmothers? However, in fact, jade is suitable for all ages! If jewelry could talk, then in the jewelry world, jade can be considered salty or sweet.
