Is jade that has absolutely no cotton necessarily good jade?

Jade is deeply loved by the Chinese people. Whether it is women or men, it is very suitable to wear jade jewelry.

It has a fine texture and various colors, and is known as the "King of Jade".

Many friends are very concerned about whether jade has cotton when buying jade. They believe that cotton is a defect and has certain adverse effects on the quality and color of jade.

What is the cotton in jade?

The cotton in jade is the cloud-like, fibrous, or flaky inclusions in jade, like clouds and fog. Especially in jade with better transparency, the cotton is more obvious.

Professionals generally call this white mineral "jade cotton".

Some people say that the cotton in jade is mostly an optical phenomenon caused by the reflection of light between the grain spaces, cracks and impurity inclusions of jadeite minerals.

Some people also say that the cotton in jade is caused by the uneven distribution of green color of jadeite itself.

No matter what the reason for the formation of the cotton, it will not have any impact on the quality of the jade itself.

The cotton in jade is mostly white, but we occasionally see cotton of other colors.

Almost all natural jades have cotton in them. It is not only jades with poor texture that have cotton. In fact, the better the texture of the jade, the more obvious the cotton is.

Because the better the texture of jade, the higher the transparency, and the more obvious the cotton and other impurities in the jade.

The influence of cotton on jade

The cotton in jade has roughly two effects on jade. First, it affects the beauty of jade.

The cotton in jade generally grows irregularly, so it will still have a certain impact on the beauty of jade.

Jadeite that forms beautiful patterns naturally has very little cotton.

However, there is also very beautiful cotton, such as the snowflake cotton of Mu Na material, which is as dreamy as a fairyland and is a plus point for jade products.

Second, cotton will also affect the value of jade. Once there is too much cotton in jade, it will affect the overall beauty of the jade and will definitely affect the value of the jade.

The cotton in jade is not all defects, and not all cotton will lower the value of jade.

Like the snowflake cotton of Mu Na material mentioned above, the cotton is the icing on the cake and will increase the value of jadeite.

Cotton will also affect the penetration and diffusion of jade color. First of all, cotton will somewhat cover the color of jade.

Secondly, cotton will affect the diffusion of jade's color or color roots within the jade.

A small amount of cotton does not pose a big threat to the appearance of jade.

If the quality of jade is not very good, and there are a lot of cotton in it and it is very concentrated, such cotton will seriously affect the color of jade and make it less beautiful.

Is jadeite with cotton worth buying?

Jade is naturally generated, so it is inevitable that it will contain some cotton to a greater or lesser extent.

Nothing is absolutely perfect. No matter how transparent the texture of jade is, there will always be some cotton inside.

If the cotton in the jade does not seriously affect the beauty of the jade, it is okay to have a little cotton in it and you can buy it.

On the other hand, cotton is one of the important signs that jade has not undergone any optimization. It can be said that jade with cotton is natural.

But if you really care about cotton, you can spend more time choosing some high-quality jade to wear, or you can choose jade that is not very transparent but brightly colored, because the cotton in jade of this texture will definitely not be so obvious.

In short, as long as there are not too many cottons in the jade, you don’t have to worry too much and you can go ahead and do it.

When purchasing jadeite, let’s look at the existence of cotton rationally!
