Many people know that jadeite is a very investment jewelry, not only a suitable for wearing, adding beautiful jewelry, but also has a very high collection value. But some emerald friends will wonder, why the jadeite I bought not only did not appreciate, but fell more and more in priceLet's take a look at the reasons for this with Mr. Cui today!
Reason 1: Buy "fake jadeite".
This situation should be the most, because jadeite ** is high, and the huge profits also make the jadeite counterfeiting market increasingly huge. Fake jadeite is divided into two categories: one is the B goods and B + C goods that are manually processed.
B goods are washed away by strong acid bleaching to remove the impurities in the jadeite jade, so that the background color is pure, and then injected with resin reinforcement to make the jadeite look more transparent and brighterThe B + C is based on the B goods, and the chemical dye is added in the glue injection process, so that the treated jadeite is not only translucent, but also dyed with the best value color. Whether it is B goods or B + C goods, the structure of jadeite has been damaged, and the residual chemical acids and dyes are harmful to the human body, so people do not want to buy artificial treatment of jadeite.
The other type is all kinds of quartz stone, water foam, chalcedony and other counterfeit "pseudo jadeite". Mr. Cui has mentioned a lot before, so I won't list them all.
Reason 2: The jadeite that was covered up by the merchant.
Many people think that as long as they buy real jadeite, no matter how bad it is, it will definitely not drop the price. But in fact, there are some real jadeite, which is not much better than fake jadeite, that is, jadeite that has been covered up by merchants.
Although most jadeite has flaws, this is an indisputable fact, after all, jadeite is born in nature and cannot be perfect. People who like jadeite will tolerate some small flaws, because these small flaws do not affect the quality and beauty of jadeite, but there are some relatively large flaws, which can not be tolerated, such as relatively large cracks, color spots and color lines that affect the appearance. And some merchants are reluctant to let these cracks, stains make the price of jadeite drop, so they use some waxing, polishing skills to cover up these flaws, and conceal consumers, so that some consumers buy back jadeite for a period of time only to find that the jadeite they bought has intolerable defects. And it is precisely because of the existence of these flaws that the price of jadeite will drop a lot!
Reason 3: Grow jadeite that is too tender.
If the economy allows, what we pursue when buying jadeite is, of course, old and good texture. The "old" here does not mean that this jadeite has been formed for a long time, but that this jadeite has small crystalline particles and a compact structure, so the texture is more stable, and "variants" rarely occur.
If the jadeite is not old enough, because the structure is relatively loose, if it is not well maintained, the water in the jadeite is easy to lose, which will dry out and turn yellow, affecting the value of the jadeite. And the jadeite that is too tender is not beautiful in terms of appearance. Unless it has any special meaning or special eyesight, it will be considered.
Reason 4: The bottom is too thin for jadeite.
In addition, there will be some merchants who deliberately break the jadeite into thin slices for profit. After these jadeite flakes are inlaid, outsiders can't see any difference, but those who know know that the value of such jadeite has fallen sharply, and there is almost no possibility of appreciation. Because jadeite wants to appreciate, there must first be a premise, that is, it has collection attributes, and the collection attributes must require jadeite to be preserved for a long time, but these thin pieces of jadeite, because they are too thin, are likely to be broken accidentally, and the broken jadeite can no longer be collected.
Therefore, the flake jadeite is not loved, and the value is not high, but some merchants like to use the flake jadeite to deceive some consumers, resulting in this part of the consumer spending **, but buying worthless jadeite!
Reason 5: The jadeite is damaged.
If we usually wear it improperly, resulting in bumps and damage to the jadeite, this serious flaw will naturally lead to the occurrence of the price drop of the jadeite. If the jadeite becomes dull, potholed, or even has serious cracks due to human reasons, these have a great impact on the value of the jadeite. Especially the deep cracks, which not only affect the aesthetics of the jadeite, but also seriously reduce the collection value and play value of the jadeite.
The higher the quality of jadeite, the greater the room for appreciation. The market of jadeite products with good water color is rising year by year, and the value is naturally getting higher and higher. Some jadeite with too low quality, such as bricks, can only meet the requirements of people's daily wear, and the appreciation space is extremely limited. Nowadays, jadeite is becoming more and more rare, and it is very rare to have a piece of jadeite that can appreciate in value
