How high a temperature can jadeite withstand?

In some tutorials on jade identification, some people put jade on fire to determine whether it is A-grade jade. If it is B-grade jade, the injected glue inside will melt.

I do not recommend this method of identification.

Jade is essentially a stone, and since it is a stone, it has a melting point.

But there are many types of jade, and according to their different internal structures, we can divide them into many categories. Different types of jade have different melting points.

If we want to understand the melting point of jadeite, then we cannot ignore the melting point of jade.

The highest melting point of jade is 1773℃, and the lowest melting point of jade is 1692℃.

Jadeite belongs to the jadeite variety of jade, which is formed under high pressure and low temperature conditions.

Scientists once conducted experiments on jade in high-temperature environments and found that at around 1000 degrees, jade would begin to melt into a glass-like state.


At this time, most of the jade crystals are granular, and a small part is fibrous.

So we generally believe that the melting point of jade is around 1000 degrees.

What is the concept of 1000 degrees? The maximum temperature in the center of a burning cigarette butt can reach 800 degrees.

After reading this, jade lovers should rest assured, because there is generally no such high temperature in life that can melt jade.

Although jade has a high melting point, we must still prevent high temperatures when wearing it in daily life.

High-temperature baking will increase the volume of jade's internal molecules, causing qualitative changes in the jade, causing it to lose its warm moisture, become dry, and its color to become lighter.

Many jade lovers have been harmed by some unreliable identification methods on the market.

For example, the method of using fire to burn jade to check its authenticity is really harmful. Many bracelets of good quality have been ruined by this so-called folk remedy.

For this nice full-green bracelet I’m going to talk about below, wouldn’t it be better to spend a few dozen dollars to have it appraised by a professional organization?

Some people insist on believing in "unique folk remedies", and then it's too late to regret it.

After being burned at high temperature, the bracelet is scrapped. After cooling down, it breaks with a slight bend.

Under a magnifying glass, it shows its inner glassiness and the jade fiber structure of the fracture is clearly visible.

We can see from the port that the surface of this jade is fine and smooth, which is the essence of ice jade.

Therefore, this is not B-grade jade, nor is it C-grade jade. It is genuine A-grade jade! This identification method brought great harm to the owner of the bracelet.

So what should we pay attention to when wearing it?

First of all, we should avoid exposing jade to high temperatures or open flames when cooking.

If the cooking environment is very hot, it is best to take off the jade jewelry to prevent it from being damaged.

Friends who like to take a sauna should also take off the jade before entering the sauna room to prevent the jade from expanding due to heat and contracting due to cold, which may cause internal cracks.

When we go to places with strong sunlight, such as the seaside, we should try not to wear jade.

One is to prevent our jade from being exposed to too strong sunlight, and the other is to prevent us from bumping into the jade while playing.

If you are not going to wear jade for a long time, it is best to wrap it in soft cloth and place it in a cool, dry and ventilated place .

Jade products that are worn for a long time may be corroded by human sweat and their luster may become dull.

At this time, we just need to soak the jade in clean water for half an hour, and then wipe it with a soft cloth.

Although jade maintenance seems complicated, in fact, as long as we pay a little attention to it, there will generally not be any major problems.
