What kind of jade is the best? How do novices choose jade?

Jade has fresh and elegant colors , and is very suitable for wearing in the hot summer. Whether it is green, white or purple, it can bring a cool feeling to the hot summer, so it is also a popular jewelry that is very suitable for wearing in the summer. Of course, jade is popular in any season and worth owning at any time.

The quality of jade is a major factor in judging the quality of jade. Jade is mainly divided into glass type, ice glass type, high ice type, ice type, glutinous type, bean type, etc. according to its quality. Jade has small particles inside, fine and dense texture, icy clean and smooth, full of water head and high transparency, aperture when light falls, full of glue feeling, and a pure base without impurities is best.

Another major factor is color. There are four main standards for good jade color: rich, bright, pure, and harmonious. Pure refers to the purity of the color. It should not have any impurities, and should not be gray, black, bluish, etc. Thickness refers to the richness of color, or simply put, the depth. A light or dark color is not good. A light color is not bright enough, while a dark color will reduce the gloss of the jade, making it appear dull. The best concentration is 70%~80%. Yang refers to the brightness of the color, which is mainly determined by the tonal ratio of the jadeite. The higher the proportion of green and the lower the proportion of gray, the brighter the color, such as boxwood green. Both refer to the uniformity of color distribution, and uniform and pure colors are best.

As a product of nature, jadeite will inevitably leave large or small cracks, cotton, impurities and other defects under various strong geological collisions or during transportation. Everyone should pay attention to the severity of the defects during the selection process. Cracks can be divided into natural cracks and acquired cracks. Natural cracks are generally healed inside, also known as stone patterns, and will not increase in severity over time. However, the cracks formed after birth cannot be healed and are easily broken by collision. In other words, transparent, dark green, and flawless jade is the best, but the actual price of finished jade is also affected by size and workmanship, so you can choose according to your needs.
