Can jadeite really achieve the goal of “jade nourishing people”? You will know after reading the origin of jade

Silver jewelry is often used as gifts for children and the elderly. Those who often wear silver jewelry know that if the silver jewelry you wear suddenly turns black within a certain period of time, most people will say that the silver jewelry must have turned black because there is something wrong with your body. We can also often see scenes of "silver needle testing for poison" in some costume dramas. Moreover, some friends find that when they wear jade, the color of their jade changes. Is it because it can detect human body problems just like silver jewelry? That’s definitely not the case! Today, I will take you to understand the specific reasons why jade changes color.

1. Normal color change of jadeite

Some friends who often wear jade jewelry will find that the color and brightness of jade will be improved to a certain extent? This is actually normal. If jade is in contact with the human body for a long time, the body's body fluids will penetrate into the mineral combination of the jade. The gaps between the jade mineral particles will be fully filled by the body's oils. The transparency of the jade will be significantly improved, and the color of the jade will be more obvious. Jade gives people a feeling that it is growing. Most people feel that jade is alive, which is the origin of the saying "people raise jade".

Moreover, the long-term contact between jade jewelry and the human body will have an effect similar to polishing. The external structure of jade will be improved to a certain extent, the refractive index and reflectivity of light will change to a certain extent, and some of the less obvious cracks and fissures on jade will have a feeling of slowly healing.

Therefore, the jade you wear becomes more and more clear and transparent, and the water quality seems to have improved. This also shows from the side that the texture of the jade is very good, which is a good thing, and there is no need to worry about anything.

2. The luster of jadeite changes

First of all, we need to make sure whether the variety of jade is good quality. We can take it to a professional appraisal department to check whether it is genuine A-grade jade. If it is genuine A-grade jade, then it is a problem with the variety of jade.

It is very likely that a "mutation" has occurred. After a jadeite with relatively tender texture has been worn for a long time, the internal crystal structure of the jadeite will change to a certain extent, and the water contained in the jadeite will also evaporate to a certain extent. Not only the luster of the jadeite but even its color will become dark yellow.

"Mutations" occur in all minerals in nature, including diamonds, but the process is too slow. It is a natural phenomenon. It is definitely not due to the health problems of the owner who wears the jade, and the problems of the jade itself will not affect the health of the owner who wears the jade, so we don’t need to worry too much.

3. Jade maintenance issues

Jade, as a mineral jewelry, also needs maintenance, but people don’t know how to do it. Some collectors even use bleach, detergent or even some industrial raw materials to "maintain" jade. These methods are wrong. Not only can they not clean jade, but these cleaners contain various chemical substances, which will produce certain chemical reactions with jade, thereby affecting the hue of jade, and even corroding the surface of jade, causing it to change color.

The most important point that is often mentioned is that if jade is not cleaned for a long time, it will become dirty and dull, so jade maintenance is essential.

4. Sellers’ “little tricks”

Most of the natural jade is not complete. When we see the raw stone, we can see that it has various defects, such as cracks, dirt, and variegated colors, which greatly affect the appearance and price of jade. Some unscrupulous merchants will use a kind of polishing powder to cover up the flaws of jade. Polishing powder is actually a kind of dye, and it can cause certain harm if it comes into contact with the human body for a long time.

Moreover, those unscrupulous merchants will not only use this process, but also polishing, waxing and other methods to make the jade look more beautiful and transparent. However, after customers wear it for a period of time, the wax on the surface gradually disappears, and the original dirt and defects of the jade gradually appear, which is the reason why the color of the jade becomes darker and darker.

5. Defective products change color

As we said at the beginning, the first thing to determine is the authenticity of the jade. Jade is divided into three grades: upper, middle and lower. The middle and lower grades of jade are washed with strong acid to remove impurities. Some of the very beautiful jadeite we see on the market are actually inferior products.

Jade is generally divided into three types: A, B, and C. All other types except A are not acceptable. Moreover, B and C goods have been corroded by strong acids, and the internal structure of the jade has been destroyed to a certain extent. The texture has also become loose, so polishing and waxing will often appear on these products. Therefore, the blackening of the jade you wear does not affect your health. It is only after it turns black that it will have a certain impact on the human body. Therefore, we still need to carefully distinguish some of the comments on the Internet.
