As a gemstone with great value and charm, jadeite has been loved by people since ancient times. However, there are all kinds of legends and mysteries about jadeite that accompany this beautiful gemstone, and one of the most frequently mentioned questions is: does jadeite emit cotton wool after wearing it for a long time?This article will uncover this mysterious jadeite mystery for you and take you to understand its truth.
Jadeite is an extremely hard gemstone, and it has undergone hundreds of millions of years of crustal activity and natural formation processes before it becomes the beautiful jadeite we see in our hands. Its structure is stable, so it does not emit cotton wool.
Why would anyone think that jadeite emits cotton wool?This is mainly due to the presence of a counterfeit called "nephrite" in the market. Nephrite is not true jadeite, it is a relatively soft stone that is susceptible to external stimuli and produces fragments or fine particles that look like cotton wool.
However, this is not the case with real jadeite. Whether it is Burmese jadeite, Chinese jadeite, or jadeite from other origins, their structure is very hard and does not emit any cotton wool.
So, why do some people misunderstand that jadeite emits cotton wool?This may be related to some low-quality jadeite. In the market, some jadeites may be dyed or filled to enhance their color and transparency. These treatments may cause the internal structure of the jadeite to be altered, making it unstable and even showing the phenomenon of cotton wool.
Therefore, when buying jadeite, it is important to choose a reputable and experienced merchant and avoid buying low-quality products. At the same time, it is also very important to take care of jadeite. Jadeite should avoid colliding with hard objects to avoid damage or instability. Regular cleaning and care for jadeite preserves its beauty and stability.
To sum up, jadeite does not emit cotton wool after wearing it for a long time. True jadeite gemstones have a hard structure and stable properties, and will not be stimulated by the outside world to scatter fragments. Simply choose the right channels to buy, properly care for and inspect your jadeite, and you can enjoy the unique charm and mystery of this gemstone.
