The biggest pain point of jade for everyone is its price. It’s not entirely because its price is too high. If it is really a good thing, it is reasonable to have a higher price. The key is that the price is too complicated and you can’t grasp it or figure it out. Even experts can be confused sometimes. But there are two clear streams in the jade world. They are beautiful and of good quality, and have always been priced relatively low. The reason is very simple, that is, people do not have enough knowledge about them. Many people who know a little about jade have heard of them, but cannot describe them specifically. Let’s talk about these two streams: white-based green and flower-green. White jadeite Let us first post a description of white-based green from the industry: "widely distributed, fine texture, white base color, bright green, and distinct white and green." From this description, we can see that the quality of white-based green jadeite is still good, and it is really wrong that this kind of jadeite is ignored by people. The material of white-based green jadeite is generally larger, so it is often used to carve bracelets. Teach you to identify Although white-based green jadeite is unpopular, there is no shortage of people trying to take advantage of the situation in the jadeite market. White-based green jadeite is sometimes also the object of imitation, so it is very important to learn how to identify it. In fact, white-based green jadeite is very easy to identify, because its base is very white, like snow, and the green part is distributed in spots on the white base, which appears very bright. Secondly, the transparency of white-based green is not high, and most of it is opaque. This is also the reason why white-based green is often ignored in the market. After all, in most people's opinion, the opacity of jade is a manifestation of poor texture. However, those white-bottomed green jades with clear white and green stripes, although not transparent, can reach the mid-to-high-end level. Purchasing this quality of white-bottomed green jade is not only cheap, but will also become more and more valuable in the future. Teach you to buy ❶ The most valuable feature of white-based green jadeite is the green part. When purchasing white-based green jadeite, it is best to have a relatively concentrated distribution of green on the surface of the jadeite. The green part should account for at least one-third of the surface, the more the better. It is very rare to reach one-half. This has excellent prospects for both value preservation and future appreciation. ❷ The biggest shortcoming of white-bottomed green jadeite is its poor quality, so if you can pick up a piece of white-bottomed green with very good quality, you will be lucky enough to find a treasure. Flower Green Jade Like white-based green, flower-green jade is not very famous, but its appearance can also be amazing. Flower-green jade is emerald green in color, has a coarse but fine texture, and is translucent. The disadvantage is that the green color is unevenly distributed, with no pattern and is extremely chaotic, but some people just like this irregularity. This randomly distributed green is like a flower, so it is called anthocyanin. The quality of Huaqing jade is mostly at the glutinous and fine bean levels, which is a medium-to-low grade of jade, but it is definitely enough. Teach you to distinguish Many people confuse the Huaqing variety with the Tielongsheng variety because both are full green in color and have small black spots. Generally speaking, their quality is average, so it is hard not to confuse them. To distinguish the two, you cannot waste time on the quality of the water, but instead look at the color. The green of Tielongsheng is distributed in granules, while the green of Huaqing is distributed in veins. This difference in green distribution is the best way to distinguish the two. Teach you how to buy Because anthocyanin is full of green and distributed in a mixed manner, it is easy to cover up some flaws, so you have to learn some tricks to pick out good anthocyanin varieties. ❶ Look at the color. The best green color for anthocyanin is rich, bright, pure and uniform. It is best to use a spotlight to see if there are any hidden colors in it, as these will affect the overall appearance. ❷ Transparency. The transparency of the azure jade is better than that of the white-based green jade. Like other jade, the more transparent it is, the better. ❸ Look at the stone flowers. Some anthocyanin species will have clumps of white petrification. The fewer of this type of stone flowers there are, the better. ❹ Look for cracks. Any jadeite will lose its value once it has cracks, so be sure to check carefully for cracks. Which style is the most valuable? After reading so much, I believe you have some understanding of these two types of jade. I have also told you how to choose. So, regarding white-based green and flower-green jade jewelry, which one has the best cost-effectiveness and is most likely to appreciate in value in the future? ❶ Jade bracelet Bracelets are the most popular of all jade jewelry. First of all, they need to be cut from a whole piece of material, which is very material-consuming, which determines its high value. Secondly, they are generally accepted by people and are easier to sell after appreciation. You must know that many jades are priced but not sold, especially for ordinary people. It is not easy to sell jade jewelry. ❷ Jadeite Bead Necklace In fact, not many people wear jade bead necklaces, but they consume more materials and are more time-consuming than bracelets. The material selection is also more strict. First of all, the raw material must be large enough so that enough beads can be cut out. Secondly, the beads must have uniform water quality and color, and the difference between them cannot be too big, otherwise it will appear abrupt. Finally, the size of the beads must be consistent, which also places great demands on craftsmanship. Therefore, merchants are not willing to make more jade bead necklaces, which also makes jade bead necklaces more valuable. ❸ Jade Ring Face A jade ring face must be the best quality part of jade, that is, the essence. This makes a small jade ring face very valuable and able to maintain its value. However, jade ring faces are generally allowed to be multi-colored, and it is best to be mainly single-colored, so the azure jade may not be suitable for ring faces. To be honest, many people nowadays like to follow the trend when buying gems, which not only wastes money but also may lead to being cheated. In fact, those places that are rarely visited have unique scenery waiting for us to explore. Are you willing to be one of the first excavators?
