What kind of jade is worth collecting?

What kind of jade has collection value? This is a problem we often encounter in the process of jade investment and collection, and it is also a problem that confuses many jade lovers.

Professor Xiao Yongfu, the godfather of oriental jewelry and a famous expert in jewelry research, identification, evaluation and collection, once said: "When collecting jadeite, don't buy the expensive ones, just buy the right ones."

1. Jade with strong liquidity

Jade is relatively not a hard currency, and the current channels for converting jade into cash have certain limitations. Therefore, as a collection, jadeite with high liquidity should be a good choice.

Liquidity has two meanings: one is that it is loved by everyone, and only those that are liked by everyone have liquidity.

Many times, people may think that jadeite worth collecting should be high-priced jadeite. High-priced jadeite, to some extent, means good quality and is certainly worth collecting, but the collection of high-priced jadeite also has certain limitations.

Although some jadeite is expensive, it does not conform to the public's aesthetic taste, which inevitably affects its liquidity. It will only be circulated if it is loved by everyone.

Therefore, you should be cautious when collecting high-priced jadeite. Many times, things that are not expensive, unique, and liked by everyone are more worthy of collection.

Strong liquidity also has another meaning: the circulation of prices. The price must be suitable for the circulation objects. If the objects of circulation are consumed in tens of thousands, and we collect things worth millions based on personal preference, the liquidity of jade will also be reduced.

2. Jadeite with excellent quality, water and color

Although jadeite has only been introduced to China for a hundred years, it is deeply loved by the Chinese people. Looking at the development history of jade, for hundreds of years, it has almost been a one-man show directed and performed by green, until recent decades, when the quality of jade has opened a new chapter.

The sensory pleasure brought by jadeite with excellent quality, water and color has triggered new value orientation. In judging the value of jadeite: only when the quality, color and water of jadeite are good enough and its structure is stable, can jadeite stand the test of time. Such jadeite naturally has unique collection value.

3. Rare jadeite categories

In the chaotic and complex jade market, when collecting, you must remember that only the real fine products can stand the test. Due to the scarcity of raw materials and the increasing demand, high-end jade raw materials will still have a lot of room for appreciation. Therefore, when buying jade, you should still choose collection-level ones in order to maintain and appreciate their value.

It is worth mentioning that not all jadeite has collection value. Many small pieces that are not expensive are quite rare due to the ingenious combination of raw materials and craftsmanship. They will have great collection value in the future. These also fall into the category of collectible-grade jadeite.

When it comes to purchasing collection-level jadeite, improving your eyesight is the only way to protect yourself. At the same time, systematic study plus appreciation of physical samples are the key to improving your collecting eyesight. As the saying goes, the more you see, the more you will be able to see the rules hidden behind them. Everything is still based on practice. If you look more and buy less, you will naturally feel more and more accomplishment in collecting.

Jade is a natural, non-renewable resource and is rare in itself, but there are even rarer gems among the rare ones. In every auction, there is a kind of colored material that is very rare.

If the material comes from a well-known mine, it will be even more rare. Many rare species may only be seen once in a lifetime, so it would be a pity to abandon them.
