The water in this industry is not very deep, it’s just relativity!

It is said that the jade industry is very complicated because the jade market not only has natural A-grade jade, but also B-grade, C-grade and B+C-grade jade. As for the counterfeit D-grade jade, there are all kinds of them.

For friends who do not often go to the jade market, and for friends who do not understand the process from jade raw material to jade finished product, it is unlikely to master the method of distinguishing the authenticity of jade just by reading a few simple jade articles and listening to a few jade knowledge courses given by so-called experts.

Of course, if there are professionals in the jade industry who teach you how to use instruments and equipment for testing, then I believe everyone will quickly master the identification methods of jade. If you rely solely on experience, you need long-term practical training in practice. After seeing and being exposed to more, you will naturally understand it in the end.

Here, let's further analyze it briefly:

1. Going to a jewelry appraisal institution at the provincial level or above for appraisal is the simplest and most reliable method. Nowadays, counterfeiting methods are becoming more and more sophisticated, and testing through instruments and equipment is the best option! If you buy from Yunnan, just look for the certificate issued by the Yunnan Jewelry and Gemstone Quality Supervision and Inspection Institute!

2. Go to the jewelry market, hold the goods in your hands, look at them more and ask more questions. It is generally believed that when you have more than 600 genuine items, you can make a basic judgment based on intuition with the help of a strong flashlight. During this process, you need to try out B goods, C goods, and B+C goods. Once you know what natural A-grade goods are, you can identify those counterfeit D-grade goods at a glance (no matter what material it is made of, at least you know it is not natural A-grade goods)!

What factors determine the price of jadeite? Broadly speaking, this is actually very simple in theory. However, to really make a convincing quality rating and value assessment of jadeite, the actual universal promotion operation is harder than climbing to the sky! Here is a brief analysis with everyone, generally determined by the following 6 factors:

1. Color; 2. Water head, also known as transparency; 3. Texture, also known as germ quality; 4. Defects, also known as clarity; 5. Craftsmanship; 6. Overall impression.

The price of jadeite is determined by its value, and the value of jadeite is determined by the above 6 factors. When it comes to jadeite, it is best to look more and buy less, compare prices from different stores, and hang out in the jadeite source market for a month or two, and you will naturally understand the jadeite market trends! Don’t be scared by the saying “Gold has a price but jade is priceless”!

Jadeite products that are old in texture, good in water content, good in color, flawless, of superior workmanship and high in overall ornamental value are relatively good. We often say that you get what you pay for, so the price of good jade and jadeite treasures is naturally relatively high. That's it.

People say that the jade industry is deep, but that is relative to jade novices; but for people who know jade, for people who are familiar with the dynamics of the jade industry, how deep can it be?
