How much does jadeite generally cost? The clearest jade price comparison table

Among jewellery and jade, the price of jade is the most difficult to determine. Unlike other jewellery such as gold, jade is not priced by gram.

The pricing of a piece of jade is usually based on a comprehensive evaluation of its type, water content, color, material, workmanship, size and so on. Moreover, each of these indicators covers very complex comprehensive factors and is difficult to quantify. With so many factors comprehensively evaluating jade, it is difficult to formulate strict and quantifiable standards for the value of jade. Let’s start with the water quality and color.

The quality of water is the first factor that determines the price.

The most expensive one is glass-type jadeite. At the annual auction, the auction price of glass-type jadeite is astonishing, and the price is often as high as millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of yuan for these top-notch jadeite.

The prices of jadeite range from high to low, followed by ice jadeite, glutinous jadeite, bean jadeite, and oily green jadeite. We are talking about the overall situation. The specific price of each piece of jade should be considered in combination with the color and other factors we mentioned above.

Color is the second factor that determines price

Jade is most valuable when it is green. The price of green jade has always been very high. The specific price depends on the intensity, color, and uniformity of color distribution, which are all important factors in determining the price of green jade. However, due to its scarcity and changes in people's aesthetics, the prices of violet jadeite and spring-colored jadeite have also increased significantly in recent years.

Shape and craftsmanship are the third factor

1. Price of Jade Bead Necklace

Jade bead necklaces are all made from a piece of intact material. Only raw stones that are large enough, have uniform water color and few cracks can meet the requirements.

Because of the waste of materials, merchants prefer to cut other ornaments or large Buddha statues, which also leads to a decreasing number of high-quality bead necklaces. Jade bead necklaces are expensive and can be seen at major auctions, with transaction prices easily reaching tens of millions of yuan. Specifically, we need to look at the size, water quality, and color of the beads.

Price of jade ring

The color of the ring face cannot be blurred. The price of a jade ring face with blurred color will be much lower. Of course, the price of the ring face is also directly related to factors such as the quality of the water, shape, and thickness. Nowadays, the price of a good jade ring face on the market can easily reach tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of yuan. The price of poor quality products can range from several hundred yuan to thousands of yuan.

Price of jade bracelet

In addition, there are many factors that affect the price of jade, such as the craftsmanship of a piece of jade, which has a particularly great impact on jade carvings, and the defects of jade. Some defects have a fatal impact on the price of jade, and can even cause the price of a piece of jade to depreciate by dozens of times or even make it worthless.
