Recently I discussed an issue with my friends. There are many friends who like jade, but there are still relatively few who understand jade. Among them, there are some friends who like jade very much, but they don’t have the time or energy to slowly learn about jade before buying it. To put it simply, they like it and want to buy it directly. For such friends, I have a few suggestions to share with you. 1. Never buy deceptive goods right away. Many people know that there is a saying that red, green, and purple jade are the most valuable. Friends who don’t know much about jade like to buy it according to this saying when they start buying jade. They buy full green, full purple, etc. right away. Even if it is not full color, they will buy jade with more colors. They mistakenly believe that jadeite with many colors is good. In reality, I often meet such friends who come up to me and ask, "Are there any Buddha statues that are all green? Are there any mountains and rivers that are all purple?" But they don’t know that many colors can be dyed! No matter the color you know or don’t know, we can dye it for you. Like the bracelet in the picture, the colors are nice and there are several colors. I guess many friends would say that it looks fake at first glance, and even those who don’t understand can tell that it is fake. But the fact is, there really is someone who drives a BMW and spends tens of thousands of dollars to buy a bracelet like this. When this friend asked us whether it was true or not, we all fell silent. The thoughts in my mind are the same as those of most of my friends. Nowadays, there are people who spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy bracelets that are so fake that they cannot be more fake. Therefore, friends who do not understand jade but want to buy it are advised not to buy colored jade right away, because when you cannot tell whether the color is real or fake, you may be like this friend who drives a BMW, thinking that no one dares to deceive her, but in fact becomes a big fat sheep and is slaughtered. 2. Don’t buy jade just because it’s cheap Many friends have this idea. When they don’t understand something, they buy cheap ones first, such as a few dozen yuan or one or two hundred yuan. I think that if I buy these cheap things, I won’t be cheated too much even if I buy fake ones. In reality, there are not many fake jades that cost only a few dozen or one or two hundred yuan. Because the profit is so low, people who commit fraud are too lazy to do it. However, these jades that cost more than a hundred yuan usually have lines, cracks and flaws. If it's really pleasing to the eye, it's fine. But if you don't buy it because you like it, but just because it's cheap, and you buy it with the idea of buying a cheap one to practice, to be honest, there's really not much point in that. To put it bluntly, it is impossible to tell the authenticity and quality of jade by looking at those cheap jadeite pieces. Because jadeite that costs only a few dozen yuan basically has no quality of water, how can we possibly understand the quality of water from these jadeite. Moreover, if we can become experts by buying cheap jade and practicing at home, then those seniors who have been dealing with jade for more than ten years or even their entire lives would be mad at us. Therefore, you can buy cheaper jade just because you like it, but don’t buy jade just because it is cheap. 3. Don’t buy jade just because you own one piece. I have met many friends like this. They bought jadeite for the first time because others said that there was only one piece of that jadeite and there were no other similar ones. I think many girls will like this very much, because girls generally like to be different from others and like their jewelry to be unique. When hearing that this jade is the only one of its kind, many girls will impulsively buy it. Of course, this statement is not wrong, because all jade is natural and unique. There will never be a second piece that is exactly the same. Even if they are made from the same material, there will still be differences in details. If one day you see two identical jades, congratulations, you have encountered B-grade jade, which is fake. Only fake jadeite looks similar; real jadeite is unique. So, don’t buy jade just because it’s the only piece. When you don’t understand jade but really want to buy it, it’s best for friends to consider the above three points. Don’t just buy colorful goods, and don’t spend rashly just because it’s cheap or you only have one. You must buy it only if you like it. At least you spent your money and bought what you like. Of course, it would be better if you could wait to understand it before buying.
