Is it better for jade to be more transparent or greener?

People often ask, when buying jade, is the more transparent the better, or the greener the better? If you ask me, of course I would say that the best would be transparent and green! But as the teacher said, you can't have both bear's paw and shark's fin, and the price of jadeite with both color and quality cannot be bought with a year's salary.

In fact, the importance of jade species or color has always been a point of confusion for many people. And in the jade industry, there is a saying: "Experts look at the quality, laymen look at the color." However, according to the general purchasing habits, when choosing jade, they first look at the type, then the color, and finally the certificate.

If we want to understand the transparency and color of jadeite, we must first know what they are?

The type of jade refers to its texture and transparency. We are accustomed to talking about the type and water of jade together, which is called "type and water." The older the type and water, the better the texture of the jade and the higher the transparency.

There are so many types of jade that I will not list them one by one. Tomato Craftsman can divide jade into different types according to its texture and transparency: glass type, ice type, hibiscus type, glutinous type, bean type, dry green type, gold wire type, water type, etc.

Jade is a multi-colored jade with rich and colorful colors. It can be said that among all jades, jade has the most colors. The common colors of jade are: green, purple, jadeite, blue, yellow, black and white. Pure-colored jade is rare and usually comes with various floating flowers.

The quality and color of jade determine its value, is this correct?

The answer is no. Tomato Craftsman thinks it is too absolute to determine the value of jadeite based solely on its color and water quality. However, these two points can be used as one of the criteria for evaluating the value of jadeite, but not all.

Because to judge the quality of jade, one cannot just look at the type and color of jade, but also must consider many factors such as its texture, color, water head, craftsmanship, meaning, etc. Sometimes, ordinary jadeite, but with good carving, can be very valuable.

Scarcity makes things valuable. Almost all jade lovers understand how precious green jade is. The most valuable jadeite is the pure bright green one. The value will be reduced if it is bluish or yellowish. However, pure bright green may not be suitable for everyone.

What kind of jade is suitable for you to wear?

Young women wearing the delicate yellow sprout green appear bright and pretty; men wearing blue-green jadeite or the darker spinach green appear steady and restrained; people who have experienced hardships are more suitable for the positive green jadeite, but they still need to choose jadeite according to their own situation, and the price is also more affordable.

When choosing jadeite, instead of being very picky about a piece that has color but poor quality, it is better to change your perspective. Although the quality of this piece is not good, you like the color. This kind of mentality will make you feel much more relaxed and happy.

▼ Yellow seedling green

▼ True green

If a piece of jade is of good quality but colorless, it will not appear luxurious enough, but if it has good color but no water quality, it will not appear lively enough. Therefore, type and color complement each other, but it would be better if other factors could be considered. As the saying goes, gold has a price but jade is priceless. Every piece of jade is a unique treasure, especially the satisfaction and pleasure it brings you, which is incomparable to gold.
