How to correctly understand high ice jadeite? Don't be fooled

To judge the quality of jadeite, the most important things to look at are its "type, water, color, and workmanship", and among these, the type and water are the key points! The quality of the jade determines the transparency of the jade and the fineness of the jade crystal particles.

Friends who like jade know that species is a very critical factor in determining the quality of jade. The types of jadeite are: glass type, high ice type, ice type, ice glutinous type, glutinous type, oily green type, bean type, etc.

Among these jade types, the high ice type is the most controversial, because the high ice type is extremely similar to the glass type and ice type. Merchants in the market often describe high-ice jade as glass-type jade, and ice-type jade as high-ice jade, just to raise the value of their own jade and thus achieve the goal of seeking higher profits.

In order to avoid being fooled, friends who like high ice jade must be familiar with the definition of high ice jade. So how do we define this high ice jadeite?

Simply put, the high ice type is not as transparent as the glass type, but better than the ice type.

To be precise, the quality of high ice jade is actually not much different from that of glass jade. Although it is not completely close to the transparency of glass jade, it does not have the obvious haziness of ordinary ice jade, and is also more transparent and smooth than ice jade.

In terms of water, the glass type is 3 points of water, while the high ice type is 2 points of water, and the ice type is 1 point of water. What is "point"? It is like an exam. When you look at jade under a light, the light enters 3 mm and can only get one point, so it is called one point of water. If the light enters 6 mm, it can get two points, which is called two points of water. If the light enters more than 9 mm, it can get three points, which is called three points of water.

Having said that, friends now know how high ice jadeite should be defined.
