Jade needs maintenance. Do you know the five maintenance methods of jade bracelets?

Jade can maintain the body and mind of those who wear it, and beautify the skin, so you must not let its beauty go to waste. Let’s talk about how to maintain jade bracelets!

Although jade is a stone, it also contains a certain amount of water. In the last processing step of jade products, it will be dipped in wax and polished to allow a layer of waxy substance to adhere to the surface. This can maintain a certain amount of moisture inside the jade, cover up some tiny cracks on the surface of the jade, and also increase the transparency of the jade.

However, if jade products are not properly maintained, some of the water, wax and oil that have penetrated into the jade will evaporate, the cracks in the jade will gradually appear, and its transparency will be relatively reduced.

Therefore, jade products need to be maintained regardless of whether they are worn or not. The specific methods are:

1. When not wearing it, it can be placed in a relatively closed and humid environment, or soaked in clean water. Avoid placing it in an overly dry place or exposing it to the sun for a long time, which will cause it to lose moisture easily or the wax on the surface will evaporate and become dry and cracked;

2. If you don’t wear jade for a long time, you can apply some olive oil or light colorless oil and pack it in a sealed plastic bag. But you can’t use thick colored motor oil, because the oxidation of motor oil will directly affect the color of jade.

3. Do not store it together with gold, silver or platinum jewelry. It needs to be packaged and stored separately, because the hardness of jade is 6.5, which is much higher than the hardness of gold, silver and platinum. Mixing it with other jewelry will cause scratches and damage to the precious metals.

4. Jade products that are worn for a long time need to be immersed in wax: Heat a cup of paraffin wax to melt it, soak the jade products in the melted paraffin for a few minutes, take them out and scrub them with a towel or brush to make them shiny.

5. Jade products should not be stored for a long time. Frequent wearing of jade products can allow the oil and moisture from the human body to penetrate into the jade, thus maintaining the jade.
