In the world of jadeite, finding a gemstone that truly belongs to you is like an adventure. Identifying real and fake jadeite, for many appreciators and collectors of jadeite, is often like climbing a steep peak of wisdom. Among them, there is a primitive and effective identification method - the use of moisture to distinguish the authenticity of jadeite. And this article, will be used to:"Wen'er Jade"As the main line, this identification method is explained in a simple and understandable way.
In a faint scent of tea, we began to share the theme of this time. What we focus on is not high-tech equipment, but our inseparable relatives and friends - water, and its miraculous use in jadeite identification.
The English name of jadeite"jade"Originated in Spanish"ijada", meaning:"Flank stones"In the old days, people found that carving jadeite was like a condensed and mellow mountain spring, reverie its effect of entering the intestines and strengthening the spleen. And the identification of jadeite that we are discussing this time is also inextricably linked to water.
First, we need to prepare a glass of water and then immerse the jadeite in the water. When immersed in water, real jadeite contains minerals that reflect a serene glow, and when viewed against the backlight, the texture inside can be clearly seen, like the traces of shallow stream water passing through a stone bed. Fake jadeite, on the other hand, will appear too transparent to see the texture of natural minerals, and artificial jadeite may see unnatural phenomena such as bubbles or cracks.
Secondly, rubbing jadeite in water, if it is a real jadeite, there will be fine powders falling after rubbing, and these powders are the manifestation of aluminum silicate, the main component of jadeite. Fake jadeite, such as imitations made of jute, is harder than jadeite, and the powder that falls after rubbing in the water is obviously large.
However, no identification method can be 100% accurate, including water identification. Therefore, in the process of purchasing jadeite, it is best to confirm the authenticity of jadeite as much as possible with the help of professional identification equipment, through visual observation, hardness identification, specific gravity measurement, fluorescence reaction and other comprehensive methods.
Here, we reiterate once again that the appreciation of jadeite is not an overnight effort, but requires all-round, meticulous love and concentration.
