Jadeite, a name that is extremely noble in Chinese culture, is a gemstone with mysterious colors and unique charm. The yearning and pursuit of it has led hundreds of millions of people to carry out crazy exploration and research on it. Today, let's follow Wen'er to get closer to the mysterious and romantic world of jadeite and learn how to identify jadeite.
First of all, the first factor in identifying jadeite is its color. Brightly colored, pure jadeite is often seen as the best choice. Turquoise, yang green, and emerald green are the most popular jadeite colors, especially emerald green, known as "imperial green", which is very rare and precious. It can be observed by eye or irradiated with a special jade lamp to see if the color is uniform and how light transmittance is.
Secondly, it is also important to identify the hardness of jadeite. One of the characteristics of jadeite is its hardness, its hardness is about 6-7, and the quality of jadeite should feel warm and smooth when worn. If the glaze feels rough or frosted, it may be a fake jadeite.
In addition, it is necessary to make full use of the crater method. Emerald with a crater is often considered the best. A volcanic crater is a natural formation that may exist in jadeite, which looks like a series of ripples. If you look closely, you can see the crater through the section or crack of the jadeite, which proves that the jadeite is genuine.
Finally, the texture of the jadeite is also examined. The high-quality jadeite has a delicate texture, few inclusions and a natural distribution. If you see a lot of bubbles or unnatural lines, it may be a man-made imitation jadeite.
Identifying jadeite requires skill and experience, as well as professional tools such as magnifying glasses, polarizers, fluorescent lamps, and a keen eye and extensive knowledge. In this process, we learned, explored, and tasted the wonders of this jade world with Wen'er.
