Jade is known as the king of jade and is an extremely popular ornament in the jade market. However, there are many people who like jade, but few who understand it.

Most jades are very valuable. How do we choose jade jewelry that suits us and is worth the money?

Today we will share with you 6 aspects that you need to pay attention to when buying jadeite, hoping it will be helpful to everyone.

Meaning: auspicious

Jade must be crafted, and the craftsmanship must have meaning. Jade is a kind of spiritual sustenance for people, so the meaning of jade jewelry must be auspicious and beautiful.

Most of the jade jewelry with traditional themes on the market have auspicious meanings, but many new themes have also appeared. If you see a piece of jade that you like but don’t understand its meaning, you can ask the seller to explain it to you. Jade jewelry is very particular about meaning, which must not only be beautiful but also suitable for oneself. For example, the jade bamboo joints that represent continuous promotion are suitable for students, while the jade Pixiu that represents bringing in wealth and fortune is suitable for businessmen.

Eye contact is important

After choosing the subject matter, we also need to consider whether it appeals to the eye, which is very critical. Appeal to the eye is a very pure feeling.

Jade lovers often encounter a situation: the workmanship and subject matter of the jade in front of them are fine, but they just don’t like it.

It may be that this jade is not meant for you. You can try to choose other styles. Don't force yourself to buy jade that you don't like.

Thick and substantial

No matter what the subject matter or style of jade jewelry, it must have a certain weight. Jade that is too thin will break easily. Jade can be small, but it must not be too thin. Whether it is used for wearing or collection, it must have a certain thickness. Many lower-quality jades seem to become more transparent and moist after being thinned. But this kind of jade only looks beautiful and actually has little value.

Certificate is guarantee

We cannot say that jadeite without a certificate is definitely fake, but for most consumers, jadeite with a certificate is guaranteed.

It should be noted that the certificate must be issued by a national authoritative agency, and a certificate issued by a fake agency is meaningless.

If the jade jewelry you like does not have a certificate, you can discuss with the seller and send the jade for inspection before purchasing. If the seller refuses to send the jade for inspection, there is a high possibility that there is a problem with the jade.

The base should be clean

Jade with a clean base will give people a pleasing feeling even if the quality of the jade is not that high.

Once glass jade has flaws that are too eye-catching, its value will be greatly reduced.

When choosing jade jewelry with themes of mythical beasts and immortal figures, you should pay special attention to the fact that the face of the jewelry must be clean and flawless.

Therefore, we should try our best to choose jade jewelry with a clean base. If there are too many flaws, its value will easily drop.

The carving must be exquisite

Jade is about three parts color and seven parts workmanship. Jade that is originally flawless is almost non-existent.

Therefore, we need to remove the flaws on the jade through carving. Rough work will waste the jade material.

On the contrary, exquisite carving can play a magical role in transforming an ordinary piece of jadeite into an exquisite ornament.

Therefore, we should pay attention to the carving when choosing jade jewelry. Jade with smooth lines and reasonable use of colors is more valuable.

The purpose should be clear

If you buy jade for daily wear, you can choose the style you like and don’t care too much about the market value.

Jadeite that is mainly used for decoration can be selected according to your usual dressing style. Generally speaking, jadeite with bright colors has better decorative functions.

If you want your jade to maintain its value in addition to being worn, it is best to choose jade of higher quality as far as your financial situation allows.

Jadeite with bright colors and high water quality is very valuable and has good value preservation function. It is a high-quality investment and collectible.

Here are some tips for selecting jadeite. Do you know how to choose jadeite next time you buy it?
