Among China's treasures, Emerald has always occupied the position of collector all year round with its luxurious style and elegant interior. And, how to identify this precious jade, especially the ice jadeite rough? As the owner of the "Jade Friend Collector", my pen name is "Wen'er", and I am very happy to help you understand it deeply.
The first thing to understand is the standard definition of jadeite ice. "Species" in the jadeite industry is a measure of the transparency of jadeite, the so-called "ice", that is, clear as ice, symbolizing the purity and freshness of jadeite. Only jadeite that is free of impurities and crystal clear is qualified to be called ice jadeite. The real ice jadeite, whether it is fresh water jade or old jade with a long history, will have a crystal feeling like a frozen lake in winter.
Identifying the ice jadeite rough is mainly judged from three aspects, looking, touching and knocking.
First, look. Look at the colors and textures with the naked eye. Ice jadeite is full and rich in color. If the color is too strong, it may be planted, and if the color is too light, it may be carved white. A real ice jadeite, with the right shade, full and elastic color. Its texture is radial or long, with dense structure and high transparency.
Secondly, touch. Feel its temperature and smoothness with your hands. The real ice jade is cool to the touch, and it has a smooth feeling, which is the performance of "ice slippery". It feels temperatureless, and even a little cold, which is a characteristic of ice jadeite. Moreover, its hardness is greater than that of ordinary stones, and it feels hard to the touch.
Finally, knock. Tap the jade with a small hammer and listen to its sound. The sound of the real ice jade is crisp, as loud as a bell, like the sound of ice cubes hitting each other, which is very beautiful. This is also a major feature of ice jadeite.
After everyone understands these skills of identifying ice jadeite, you can also better appreciate the beauty of this nature. Of course, in addition to understanding, to really be proficient and experienced, it takes a long time of practice and a deep understanding of jadeite. During this process, it is also recommended that you seek professional guidance and help as much as possible to avoid detours.
