Do you know the “bottom” of jadeite? Then do you know what others mean by “ground”? How much do you know?

Every jadeite has its own ground. In a narrow sense, the ground of jadeite is also called the base, which means the base color. In southern China, it is called "ground". To put it simply, the ground of jadeite refers to the part of jadeite other than the color. In a broad sense, the ground refers to the texture of jadeite, which includes the brightness of the jade's color, transparency, density, fineness and toughness determined by its material composition and internal structure. There are several types of classification of jadeite ground:

1. What is the ground of jadeite?

The ground is also called the ground sheet and the bottom. The ground is the texture that green depends on and the carrier of green distribution; it is the foundation. The ground is a combination of all factors except green. It is the quality characteristic reflected by the combination and coordination of type, water (transparency) and clarity. It reflects the structure, transparency and cleanliness of jade, and also contains the characteristics of tone and color. The quality of the ground is determined by the water quality. In addition, the number of defects such as cracks, asbestos, stone patterns, impurities, etc. also affects the quality of the ground. The anthropomorphic characteristics of the naming of the ground are more obvious.

Ground is a description of the texture to which the green color of jadeite is attached. The ground is the cornerstone of green. The ground is solid, delicate, pure and transparent. When green exists on it, it will be full, emerald, crystal clear and full of aura. On the contrary, the green will appear dry and dull, lacking in agility.

2. Classification of Jade Ground

1. Glass floor. The glass floor is completely transparent and has a glassy luster. The transparency of jade is different from that of gemstones. A good glass bracelet has no impurities and looks like transparent crystal.

2. Ice ground: Ice ground is second only to glass ground. It is completely transparent like ice. There seems to be a layer of mist on the transparent surface, like pure water frozen and stagnant.

3. Water land. Transparent as water, with glassy luster. Very similar to glass, with a small amount of impurities.

4. Egg white ground. The texture is like egg white, with a glassy luster, is translucent, relatively pure and free of impurities.

5. Snotty ground. The texture is like snot, has a glassy luster, is relatively pure, and contains a small amount of impurities.

6. Clear water area. The texture is transparent but bluish green. Water-land varieties with a bluish-green color are not as good as water-land varieties due to color interference.

7. Gray water land. The texture is translucent, but grayish. Because of the gray color, the texture is worse than that of clear water.

8. Purple water land. The texture is translucent, but has a purple hue, like translucent violet.

9. Muddy water. The texture is translucent, like muddy water, and the transparency is relatively poor.

10. Fine white ground. It is translucent, sandy, white, and has an opaque fine white ground.

11. White sand. Translucent, sandy, white, with a rough, fine white texture.

12. Gray sandy land. Translucent, sandy, grey, rough grey-white sand.

13. Bean green field. Translucent, bean green base, actually a bean green base translucent variety.

14. Purple flower field. Translucent with uneven purple flowers, the color is like uneven violets.

15. Blue and white ground. It is translucent to opaque, has blue stone flowers, and has an uneven texture, making it only suitable for jade carving.

16. White flower field. It is translucent to opaque, rough in texture and has stone flowers.

17. Porcelain floor. Translucent to opaque, white in color.

18. Dry white land. It is white and opaque.

19. Rough white ground. The texture is rough and white and opaque.

20. Rough gray ground. The texture is rough and gray and opaque.

21. Shit land. It is often brown or dark brown.
