The pickling pattern of jadeite is a unique phenomenon that will appear on the surface of jadeite stone. In layman's terms, this feature is like the stone that has gone through the baptism of time, leaving traces on its fragile surface.
This characteristic stems from the natural variation of jadeite during its formation. The high temperatures and pressures in the depths of the earth cause minerals to slowly crystallize into a solid state over a long period of time. During this long process, the surface of the jadeite stone is constantly eroded by acid, forming a peculiar texture. Hence this characteristic is also called"Pickled lines"。
The pickling pattern is mostly linear, some are vertical, and some are horizontal. They act as delicate painters, drawing delicate lines on the surface of the jadeite, giving each stone a unique vitality. This is also the beauty that many jadeite lovers yearn for, because the existence of pickled lines makes jadeite look more natural and unique.
Identifying pickling marks requires patience and expertise. In fact, every piece of pickling is like a code, which needs to be carefully cracked. Only through continuous learning and practice can we gradually comprehend the language of Emerald and decipher these beautiful codes.
However, please note that there are a large number of artificially made pickled patterns in the market, and such jadeite is actually worthless. Identification of true and false pickling lines requires a professional eye, I hope that when you buy jadeite, you can find a professional institution to identify, do not be confused by artificial imitation.
