What are the varieties of jadeite and what are the types of jadeite

First, green. According to the amount and distribution of green, it is divided into: full green, floating green, smeared green, point green, etc., and is divided into according to the brightness and intensity of green

Light green, light green, yang green (also divided into seedling green, lake green, imperial green, pepper green, etc.), blue green, oil green, dark green, and so on.

Second, violet. Violet is purple, which is very rare in various colors of jadeite, even rarer than yang green, and has been highly sought after in the market in recent years. Violet jadeite is usually not well planted in water, or the degree of purple is not rich enough, and many violets are called "death by seeing the light", which means that it will appear purple and dissipate in strong light, and the color will be whitish.

Third, red. Red jadeite, also known as red jadeite, is the most authentic color of jadeite.

Fourth, yellow. Yellow jadeite is also known as yellow jadeite. The various characteristics of the yellow fei are similar to those of the red jade, but the color is different; What is more serious than the red fei is that there is less good water in the yellow fei.

Fifth, white is colorless. White jadeite is one of the largest jadeite, white jadeite pursuit of no impurities, no black spots, if there is a yellow jadeite in the white jadeite "sprinkle gold", or yang green, blue-green floating flowers are considered to be the best products. White jadeite is excellent and looks very transparent, almost colorless, also known as colorless jadeite, and is also one of the high-end jadeite, but we must pay attention to the difference between colorless jadeite and foam jade, colorless jadeite is one of the most easily impersonated jadeite varieties by foam jade.

Sixth, Mocui. Ink jade is actually a green jadeite that appears as ink, but it is so rich that it looks black, and of course there are real black jadeite.

What are the types of jadeite?

Classification and grading of jadeite:

1. Glass species: The highest grade material in jadeite is as transparent and flawless as glass, but the texture is not as dry and sharp as glass, and the overall sense of moisture is full, luster and moist, and the hardness is high.

2. Ice species: Ice species and high ice species are second only to glass species, the appearance is as clear and transparent as ice, the texture and purity are high, and it is rare to exist in high-grade jadeite.

3. Oil green species: dark jadeite, like the color of small greens, is a dark green, rich in oil, strong oil, and the texture is quite different, both good and bad.

4. Glutinous species: There are two types of glutinous species and ice glutinous species, as the name suggests, the texture looks similar to cooked glutinous rice, and the ice glutinous species is relatively pure.

5. Cyanine species: This kind of jadeite is generally unevenly distributed, so it is said that "flowers", most of the emerald places show the characteristics of vein-like distribution, or sparse, or dense, and the texture is high and low.

6. Green on a white background: This kind of jadeite is common in Myanmar production areas, the background color is mostly white, with occasional impurities, the color on the top is cyan, the overall brightness is bright, and the color transition is natural.

7. Hibiscus species: The color of the jadeite in this planting area is lighter, and the common one is light green with yellow, which is fresh and elegant, which is very in line with the taste of small fresh lovers.

8. Gold silk species: This kind of jadeite is named after the characteristics, because the jadeite has repeated silk distribution, and the thickness of the bands is different, or intermittent, or continuous.

9. Violet: This is a kind of purple jadeite, the overall color is light, similar to violet flowers, relatively few, and the higher texture of violets is expensive.

10. Bean species: This kind of jadeite is a common one on the market, the crystal particles are coarse, often visible to the naked eye, and the place where the emerald color is concentrated is like a bean grain, hence the name.

11. Dragonstone: Dragonstone is the top species of jadeite, without cotton grain and impurities, smooth and delicate like silk, extremely warm and fluorescent.

12. Horsetooth jadeite: although the texture is fine, it is opaque, and the luster on the surface is like porcelain.

13. Dry green species: The green of dry green species is generally very bright, but the distribution is uneven, and there are many black spots; The base is very rough and dry, with almost no transparency, and belongs to the middle and low grade jadeite.

14. Tielongsheng: Tielongsheng is almost all full of green, spicy and bright color, short water head, and sparse in structure. It is the same as dry green, it is also a more controversial variety, the component that determines its green color is chromium ions, and the higher the chromium ion content, the composition of its jadeite will decrease, and the water head will be lower, when the composition of jadeite drops to a certain extent, jadeite will evolve into sodium chromium pyroxene, which is what we call dry green.

1. The types of jadeite include Laokeng glass species, ice species, oil green species, ice glutinous species, flower green species, white background green species, hibiscus species, golden silk species, violet, bean species, dragon stone species, Mocui, Tielongsheng, red Fei, yellow Fei, lotus root powder jade.

2. The color of the glass in the old pit is bright and eye-catching, the color is not evil, the color is pleasing to the eye, the color is uniform and the eye is appreciative. The jadeite crystals are micro-granular, uniform and consistent in size, and the grains are not visible to the naked eye. Jadeite is pure and free of impurities, with a delicate texture and no cracked cotton lines.

The sound of percussion jade body is metallic brittle, high transparency, glass luster, and the shape of the jade body looks like glass.

3. Ice jadeite refers to a kind of jadeite whose flesh is second only to glass jadeite, and its fleshy characteristics, transparency and appearance are close to the ice cubes in the refrigerator, and it belongs to translucent jadeite. The fleshy translucency of the ice jade has an ice texture, giving people the feeling of ice clear jade, three points warm, seven points cold, the appearance is like ice and water, refreshing and comfortable, ice through the heart, and there is a trace of hazy subtle beauty.

4. The background color of the cyan jadeite is green and colorless, the green has light green and dark green, and the green shape has silk, veins, clumps and irregularities, although it is green, but the distribution is extremely irregular, which is also the biggest feature of the cyan jadeite. The cyanine species is opaque and slightly transparent, the crystalline grains are coarse, and the shape of the columnar, granular mineral grains can be easily identified by the naked eye.

5. The sound of tapping the emerald body is no longer crisp and melodious, but obviously dull. The irregular color can be dark or light, and the distribution is dense and sparse, so this kind of jadeite is called the cyan species. The distribution of jadeite colors is mostly irregular, so it is not surprising that there are many species of cyanine.

1. The types of jadeite are: black ice ink painting, ink jade, red jade, wide film, yellow brown jade, Bashan jade, dry green species, Tielongsheng, ice species, imperial green, water jadeite, flower green jadeite, oil green jadeite, bean jadeite, Laokeng jadeite, violet jadeite, white background green jadeite, ice glutinous jadeite, hibiscus jadeite, horse tooth jadeite, lotus root powder jadeite, jade silk jadeite, golden silk jadeite, dry white jadeite, giant jadeite rough.

2. Black Ice Ink Painting Species: Black Ice is gray-black to dark black jadeite, more than 98% of which is jadeite, which is a single mineral rock with a compact and delicate structure. The black color is formed under the surface of the earth when jadeite is formed, often by the penetration of organic carbon.

3. Mocui: At first glance, it is black and shiny, it is easy to mistake people for the black jade in Dushan jade or other black gems and jade, which is thick black and oily under natural light, but when observed under transmitted light, it is translucent, and black is translucent, especially the flake-like Mocui, the color is pleasing under the transmitted light. The Burmese used the "lover's shadow" to describe the black jadeite, and the Chinese named it "Mo Cui".

4. Red jade: Bright red or orange-red jadeite, which is easy to see in the market. The color of the red jade is formed after the formation of jadeite crystals, which is caused by the dissemination of hematite.

It is characterized by bright red or deep red, good red Fei color, with glass luster, its transparency is translucent, red Fei products are often mid-range or low-end goods, but there are also high-end red Fei: bright color, delicate texture, very beautiful, is loved by people, with auspicious color of jadeite.

According to the species of jadeite, it can be divided into glass species, water species, ice species, hibiscus species, golden silk species, bean species, oil green species, glutinous species, etc., among which the glass species has the best quality and the value in the market is relatively high.

The layman looks at the color, the insider looks at the water", through the illumination of the light, if the jadeite water is better, the crystal particles of the internal structure are very fine, and the emitted jade flash, the reflected light is brighter, the touch is more lubricated, the transparency and gloss are high, and the opposite is defective.

Among them, glass jadeite is relatively rare in the market, it is a relatively rare variety, its value is relatively high, some good quality glass species are even more sky-high, it is just like the name, it looks like a transparent like ice, no impurities, with a high glass luster.
