Do you understand the criteria for purchasing jade egg-shaped beads?

Among jade products, plain products are more common, generally there are two types: ring faces and bracelets. Plain jade products have very high requirements for jade raw materials. Here are some common sense in buying jade egg-shaped products.

contour:

The contours of jade ring faces include egg-shaped (oval), pear-shaped, marquise-shaped, saddle-shaped, heart-shaped, crescent-shaped, rectangular, etc., with egg-shaped being the most common.

symmetry:

Jadeite emphasizes full shape and neat workmanship. For jadeite ring faces, whether it is egg-shaped, marquise-shaped or other shapes, it is required to have good symmetry. If the bottom surface is uneven or asymmetrical on the left and right, it will reduce its value.

Aspect Ratio:

The appropriate length-to-width ratio creates the beauty of jade's appearance. For example, the length, width and thickness of a plain egg-shaped ring are 20mm*13mm*15mm respectively. If the ring face is biconvex, it can be said to be of appropriate size proportion, or "of good quality."

Thickness and curvature:

For plain egg-shaped jadeite ring faces, the thickness of the ring face and the curvature of the top surface are more important than its outline, because a ring face with a certain thickness and curvature has a better optical effect than a relatively flat and thin ring face.

Jade egg-shaped beads have many uses. After inlaying, they can be made into rings, brooches, pendants, bracelets and other styles. It can be said to be very versatile.
