Briefly explain the five elements of jade evaluation, learn them and you can become a jade evaluation expert

Jade lovers often send me private messages asking for help in evaluating the value of the jade they have. Although we often say that "jade cannot be valued", after playing with jade for so many years, everyone has formed their own set of evaluation standards in their minds. So do you know how jade merchants evaluate the value of jade?

Today, the editor briefly analyzes the five aspects of material, shape, design, craftsmanship and meaning, hoping to provide a reference for jade friends who are new to the jade industry!

Evaluation from the material:

The best jade, especially emerald green, has a true, rich, bright and uniform color, a dense structure and good water quality, like glass or ice, without any cracks, and is visually dazzling.

Evaluation from the perspective of appearance :

For plain products such as round or oval ring faces, round rings, bracelets, etc. made of excellent materials, there is no need to carve patterns. It is enough as long as the shapes are carved into delicate and round shapes and polished finely to perfectly show the original and unique texture of the jade.

Evaluation from the design perspective:

Some flower pieces on the jadeite raw stones are not perfect, with small defects such as small cracks, dirty color or black spots, white flowers, etc. This kind of material can often inspire the designer's potential and create amazing works. The good parts of the materials are used to the fullest, and the bad parts are removed or weakened, so as to achieve an artistic effect of harmony between man and nature.

Evaluation from the process point of view:

Top-quality jade jewelry requires the craftsman to have exquisite workmanship and smooth lines. It must not only have a sense of integrity, but also be meticulous in every detail, thus fully reflecting the superb skills of the skilled craftsmen.

Evaluation from the moral point of view :

Some flower pieces and ornaments adopt familiar traditional Chinese auspicious patterns, such as auspicious dragon and phoenix, peace every year, good fortune and longevity, everything goes well, and wealth and prosperity for generations. Therefore, there is a saying that "the picture must have meaning, and the meaning must be auspicious", which makes people feel the good wishes and the pursuit of happiness in the appreciation of art, get psychological pleasure, and understand the profound connotation of Chinese culture.
