Collection investment win-win jade purchase skills

Faced with the quality of the market's jade, investors often have concerns when purchasing: What types of jade collection value potential? How can I buy jade with high cost performance? How to distinguish between true and false jade? Recently, Ms. Zhao Fang, a senior expert in Baoyu Stone Industry and general manager of Liboyuan Jewelry Co., Ltd., was interviewed and elaborated on the above issues.

To identify four categories of categories, for collectors, how to distinguish the quality of jade products is the first problem. In this regard, Zhao Fang said that the advantages and disadvantages of jade products can be defined in the following four aspects.

First, check the attributes. In general, jadeite is better than soft jade. Among the jades in the sea, only Jadeite is regarded as jadeite, and other jades are nephrite; in soft jade jade, Xinjiang Hetian white jade is the best quality. In other words, compared with emerald and white jade in the sense of grade, jade is preciousr than white jade. Therefore, since the emperor's influx into China from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, it has been dubbed the “King of Jade” by the people of the country.

Second, see the birth. White jade is an ultrabasic rock produced in the high-pressure and high-temperature environment formed when the earth's crust changes. Jadeite is a metamorphic rock formed by metamorphism of surrounding rocks in the high-pressure and low-temperature environment produced when the Eurasian plate and the Indian plate collide. The different causes make Jade's toughness much better than Soft Jade.

Third, look at the colors. The emerald chromium molecules that make Jadeite appear brilliant are very precious; while the white jade is not so rich in color.

Fourth, listen to the sound. To identify, hang a white jade bracelet and jade bracelet with a thin line, and then gently strike the bracelet with a small stone stick to discern the sound. The jade bracelet will give off a crispy bell sound, while the white jade bracelet sounds More boring.

How can you buy jadeite with high quality and low cost-effectiveness when you buy out of the three major mistakes? Zhao Fang reminded investors that if they want to buy goods with higher cost performance, they must be confident and overcome the three major errors.

Investors must have firm confidence that as long as they are old, well-preserved jade ornaments or craft ornaments, their collection value and value-added range must be very substantial.

In the purchase process, we must pay attention to the following three aspects.

First of all, we must understand the principle of "one price, one price, and one share of goods." The price difference between different grades of jade is very different. When consumers purchase jade, they must first determine the psychological price, and then go to the Jade Marketing Shop to choose. In this way, you can pick your favorite emerald in the same price range. .

Second, to make sure that the goods are better than the three in the judgment of quality, jump out of the "eye" misunderstanding at first sight.

Finally, we must place our mood on the scientific fulcrum of value for money and never fall into the "minimum discount" mental balance. Good jade has great potential for value-added collections. Operators will never sell at low discounts for no reason. Zhao Fang revealed that, under normal circumstances, the official Jadeite dealer’s pricing principle for Jadeite goods should be: 2 to 2.5 times the actual cost. In other words, when the price of the jadeite you purchased is lower than 40%, it may be due to other factors.

How to distinguish between true and false, how to identify skills With the rising popularity of jade collection, a variety of emerald falsification techniques are also emerging. Faced with the merits and demerits of the market, authentic and fake jade, investors how to identify? Zhao Fang reminded investors that we must pay attention to the following aspects. First of all, pay attention to counterfeit goods. At present, the most common products on the market are albite (water foam), sodium chromium pyroxene (dry green), Huanglong jade, Malay jade and other counterfeit goods. Among them, the sodium feldspar (water foam) impersonating ice species and even glass species of jade is difficult to distinguish. The quality of the high quality sodium feldspar jade is particularly fine, and the appearance is crystal clear. Many of the themes are bracelets, Guanyin pendants, Maitreya pendants and ring faces. This kind of jade will have a slightly lower hardness and refractive index than jadeite, and its specific gravity will not be up to the standard. Attentive consumers will find that glassy or ice-like jade gives people a feeling that is not only fine, but also transparent. The feeling of turning, which is commonly known as the head of the water, is not enough; while the albite does not have this feeling. On the contrary, the albite always gives a feeling of dryness, which is commonly known as water shortage. This is the unique “separation of water from the albite”. "phenomenon.

Second, pay attention to distinguish "B goods" and "C goods" jade. Among them, the B-item Jade is due to too many impurities on the natural jadeite bedrock, affecting the appearance, people will put this emerald into a dilute solution soaked for some time, so that the chemical composition of the emerald impurities and ** root After being precipitated from the emerald bedrock, the remaining gaps are filled with an appropriate amount of epoxy resin, making the previously unattractive dirty-bottomed emerald relatively refreshing. This is called optimizing the treatment of emerald to increase the price of emerald. .

The identification method of B-item Jade is generally “look” and “knock-in”: “look” is intuitive and with the help of instruments. Intuitive common phenomenon is that B-item jade appears to be stagnant, lacks the spirit of A cargo (natural) emerald, with the aid of the instrument can be observed in the B cargo Jade meat fluorescence (synthetic resin characteristics), but also destroyed the A cargo Emerald's original "grainy fiber intertwined structure"; "knocking" can only be carried on the B cargo Jade bracelets, and its impact sound appears boring and broken.

C cargo jade is generally a derivative of B cargo jade, in order to make the processed inferior jadeite more commercial value, counterfeiters will inject artificial green (commonly known as B+C jade) on B cargo. This intrusive green perception is more rigid and yin-like (green is not natural), floating and turbid, under the Charles filter green will turn red.
