It’s not enough to buy jade, but you also need to know how to “play” with it

Jade culture has been continuously enriched in the course of historical development. As a representative of jade culture, jadeite fully embodies the rich cultural connotations of jewelry, jadeite, and Chinese civilization. Any newcomer to jade will always be confused about whether a piece of jade is real or fake when seeing it, let alone distinguishing the quality of A-grade and B-grade jade. When I see some jadeite worth tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars, I feel that they are not as good as jadeite worth hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Identifying the quality of jadeite:

Grade A: natural jadeite without filling or color treatment.

B-grade jade: Through filling processing, the mineral composition of B-grade jade is natural jade, and the color is natural, but the aging of the filling rubber will affect the color brightness, transparency, glossiness, etc.

C-grade jadeite is treated with colorants. The mineral components of C-grade jadeite are natural jadeite components.

B + C goods: Jadeite that has been filled and colored.

Jade is becoming less and less available and its price is getting higher and higher, so its potential for appreciation is also getting greater and greater. There are five places in the world that produce jade, and only the jade produced in Myanmar can reach gem grade.

1. Not easy to damage, easy to collect

Not easy to damage: Jade has its common physical properties. It has good toughness and high heat resistance. This makes jade jewelry less likely to be damaged.

2. Jade is becoming a hot spot for public investment and financial management

As people's living standards improve, more and more people begin to pay attention to investment and financial management. From a gemological perspective, jadeite, as the king of jade, has beautiful jewelry luster and color and is deeply loved by Oriental peoples, especially Chinese. It is rare and precious with huge appreciation potential, and has also become a hot spot for public wealth management investment.

3. The potential value of jadeite

There is no unified pricing for jadeite in the world. Almost all gemstones can be quoted by weight and grade. For example, diamonds are priced according to the four Cs. Only jadeite does not have a unified quotation. Because there are huge differences in the color, water quality and fineness of the carved patterns of jadeite, each piece is different. This depends on people's understanding and vision of the above-mentioned characteristics of jadeite.
