The meaning of jade is different in everyone's mind, and in the long-term practice of jade processing and production, the predecessors of China's jewelry industry have summarized a lot of experience about jade, and expressed these characteristics of jade in the form of concise aphorisms. Below, Bian Xiao will introduce you to the famous sayings related to jade and jade, and see what you need to pay attention to when purchasing.

The color difference is first-class, and the price difference is ten times.

I believe that everyone has heard of the famous saying "first-class color difference, ten times the price difference"! In fact, for high-grade jadeite, the price difference is about ten times or more. For example, a jade ring of 500,000 yuan and a jade ring of 5 million yuan are first-class in quality, style, size, planting moisture and defects, and the key to the price difference between them lies in the level of green. How to recognize and distinguish the differences between emerald green is extremely important, at least we have seen and experienced it.

Don't look at the color under the lamp.

Guess what? For jadeite, it is especially important to "watch the color under the lamp". This is because the color of jadeite, especially the color of jadeite such as flash gray, flash blue and oil blue, has a much better visual effect under light than under natural light. Therefore, under the light, we can only look at the cracks, water head length, reflection degree or other characteristics of jadeite. But to investigate and evaluate the green color of jadeite under natural light.

There is water all over the dragon.

The so-called "dragon" actually refers to the green color in jade. That is to say, in general, the green part is better than the green part in terms of texture thickness and transparency. Of course, sometimes the difference between emerald and the earth is too strong, just like the next proverb.

The stool grows tall and green.

Emerald land and emerald green are interdependent and closely related. Generally speaking, when the green water is good, the land is usually not too bad, and vice versa. The motto is mainly to remind people not to ignore the particularity of emerald green. Although not every "shit place" will have advanced green. But "shit" can appear in the first class.

It is better to buy a thread than a big piece.

With regard to the characteristics of green form in jadeite original stone, a green "line" and a green "piece" are two manifestations of the same green form, which is the difference between "line" standing and "piece" lying. The thickness of "line" is known, but the depth is unknown; The area of the "sheet" is known, but the thickness is unknown. The key to the motto is to remind people not to be confused by the green "more" and "less" on the surface of jadeite, but to recognize the essence of green "standing" and "lying". So, I don't really buy a large piece of green jade, but I remind you not to expect too much from the thickness of green.

No locks and no flowers.

In fact, high-grade emerald green usually expresses its natural essence in the form of "elements". For example, the fingers and feather tubes in second-hand goods belong to "plain life". If there is a pattern on the sculpture, there must be something fishy under its beautiful pattern. Therefore, there is a saying in the industry that "no locks and no flowers". The same is true of modern jadeite products.

Look at the green with cold eyes

The so-called "green" refers to a colorful "fake jade", which is an old trick. At present, there are "bathing", "bathing" and "coating". Of course, any fraud is likely to succeed for a while, but it will never give away the clues. The old adage is for people in the industry, reminding people to pay attention to the feeling at first sight and don't let go of any doubts. Therefore, it is better for consumers to "look on coldly". Be sure to go to a store with good reputation and guaranteed quality to buy jade.

See more and buy less.

For the purchase of jadeite original stone, "seeing more" is a selection process; It is a comparative process; It is also a process of experience accumulation and verification; It is the premise of "buying". "Buy less" does not mean not buying, but reminding you to "look" before buying.
