Topaz is very rare, in the history of thousands of years of jade mining, only occasionally seen, the quality is not inferior to the sheep fat jade, there are treasures of topaz in ancient jade, such as the topaz three sheep Zun made during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, topaz beast-shaped bottle, topaz Buddha's hand, etc.

6) Moyu. The color of jade varies from ink to light black, and its black color is mostly cloud-like and band-like. There are many names of the process, there are dark cloud pieces of light ink light, gold mink bun, beauty bun, etc., in the whole piece of material, the degree of ink is different, the depth is unevenly distributed, and it is mostly seen in the transition with green jade and white jade.

Generally, there is full ink, and poly ink refers to the green jade or white jade, which can be used as a beautiful color. The dot ink is dispersed into dots, which affects the use. Most of the black jade is small, and its ink color is caused by the large number of fine graphite scales.

The jade produced in the Hotan area of Xinjiang is relatively good. Although Hetian jade is named after Hotan, Xinjiang, it is not a regional concept in itself, and does not specifically refer to the jade produced in the Hotan region of Xinjiang, but the name of a class of products. In China, the stones with more than 98% tremolite content are named Hetian jade, which are all within the scope of the national standard.

Key points of identification: Looking at the structure at 45 degrees of oblique shooting, you can see the tightness of the arrangement of the jade structure and the size of the particles. Generally speaking, it is better to take the thin, short, uniform and hidden radish silk pattern, and to be thick, long, uneven and obvious differences to be worse.

The back shot can see the impurities and cracks of Hetian jade, use a flashlight to stick to the back of Hetian jade, slowly translate, there will be dark spots if there are impurities, and lines will be seen if there are cracks.

The tremolite content of Xinjiang Hetian jade is more than 95%, and the tremolite content of Hetian sheep fat jade is as high as more than 99%, so it is the color of tremolite that determines Hetian jade. The tremolite is blue-gray when observed under the electron microscope, so the white of Hetian jade is blue in white.

According to the provisions of the new national standard, all jade species containing tremolite can make Hetian jade certificates. Therefore, the market is flooded with Qinghai jade, Russian jade, Canadian jade, and Korean jade. These jades can be made into Hetian jade certificates, and the production is huge, **cheap.

If you want to make a white picture, it is possible to buy Qinghai jade and Russian jade. If you want to be green, it is possible to buy Russian and Canadian jade. White and grayish-red, more than 99% of it is Russian jade.

Therefore, it is recommended that when you buy Hetian jade, focus on the oiliness, and the more you play, the more oily it is, it is Xinjiang Hetian jade. High-grade Xinjiang Hetian jade is hard to find.

The best material in Hetian jade is Xinjiang Hetian seed material mutton fat white jade, and the current jade market is 20,000 per gram. Mutton fat jade is called mutton fat jade because of its color resembling mutton fat. The texture is delicate, white as fat, especially moisturizing, giving people a feeling of rigidity and softness.

This is the best variety of white jade jade, only Xinjiang has this variety in the world, the output is very rare, extremely precious.

The selection of Hetian jade needs to look at the following 3 points: 1. Look at the color, the color of Hetian jade needs to be pure, and pay attention to whiteness, and the color of good Hetian jade is the same as mutton fat white; 2. Looking at the texture, the texture of Hetian jade with good quality is delicate, with good toughness and hardness; 3. Look at the purity, the fewer impurities, cracks and other defects, the purer the appearance of Hetian jade, the better the quality.

From the color point of view, Hetian jade is the most precious in white, especially mutton fat white, and there are also more precious colors in topaz, and the jade quality is comparable to mutton fat jade. Green jade, green and white jade, jasper, black jade and other colors of jade are slightly inferior in quality.

The body is like clotted fat, fine and light, thick and warm, and the veins are dense", which can be described as hitting the nail on the head. A piece of Hetian jade, it should not only give people a "condensed" feeling, delicate and warm, but also fine light, its luster is not ostentatious and not sharp, containing but not revealing, more heavy and textured. In addition, the structure of Hetian jade should also be fine, with a uniform and smooth texture, and less cracks and impurities.

What kind of Hetian jade is the best, this question can come from two aspects:First, from the perspective of color classification, topaz is the best among Hetian jadeAccording to the latest Hetian jade national standard implemented in December 2020, Hetian jade is divided into 8 types according to color:

White jade, green jade, green and white jade, jasper, topaz, sugar jade, black jade, emerald jade...Among these 8 categories, because of History...

For Hetian jade, the more delicate the jade, the better, because the more trusting its texture, the more round the appearance and the visible to the eye, Tian jade has an obvious sense of grain, then its impurities are the same as the sense of powerlessness, which means that the physique is better.

Hetian jade, the most recognized in the collection circle, is Xinjiang Hetian jade, which includes: mountain materials, seed materials, mountain water materials and Gobi materials.

In Hetian jade, the best material is Xinjiang Hetian seed material mutton fat white jade

Sub-material. Also known as kodyu, it refers to the formation of nephrite primary ore through weathering, glaciers, debris flows, and river water through continuous erosion and transportation. The sub-material is characterized by small lumpiness, often ovate, and a smooth surface. Because of long-term handling, scouring, and sorting, the quality of Ziyu is generally better.

The first is high quality; the second is good shape; the third is good skin color; The fourth is good color; When choosing jade, quality must be the first criterion, whether it is a finished product or a rough stone, jade quality can not be ignored. Look at.

I often hear people use the word "delicate" to describe Hetian jade, and the fineness of Hetian jade is generally manifested in two aspects, one is the size and uniformity of the structure of the jade, and the other is the fineness of the structure, that is, the fineness and uniformity of the cloud floc. So what kind of fineness is the best? That is, fineness with good fineness and uniform structure.

Xinjiang came to Hotan.

The tremolite content of jade.

Hetian is divided into seed material and mountain material, the whiter the color, the better, and the oiliness is greater.

Of course, it's pure white, and it's even better to reach mutton fat jade, and the appreciation is fast.

Hetian jade, which has a delicate and warm texture, is a good jade.

Good jade is because of its extremely fine particle size, so the texture is very delicate, it is the so-called meticulous and chestnut, which is beyond the reach of other jade. The texture is warm and moisturizing, that is, it has a greasy luster, giving people a sense of moisturizing and soft, which is the so-called warm and moisturizing, which is famous for its jade moisturizing like mutton fat. Therefore, if the texture is delicate and warm, it is a good jade.

Texture is a comprehensive expression of the quality of jade, including shape, moisturization, cracks, impurities, and so on.

Hetian jade is mainly tremolite-based jade, with extremely fine mineral grains and a felt-like structure. Its structure is typical of felt-like, uniform particle size, interwoven into a felt blanket, which is an important reason for the delicate and dense texture, and this structure is rare for other types of jade. Although the mineral particles of Hetian jade have a certain orientation, they are not strong, and occasionally the particles have wavy extinction and plastic deformation.

Classification of Hetian jade

1) White jade. Refers to white nephrite, the traditional jewelry industry has different names for different degrees of oak white nephrite, such as mutton fat white, pear blossom white, snowflake white, ivory white, fish bone white, brown rice white, chicken lease and closed bone white, etc., among which the mutton fat white is the best, which is unique to Hetian jade. Mutton fat white jade is very small in quantity and has a high value.

Most of Hetian white jade is ordinary white jade, but white jade should be white and warm, if it is white but not moist, it is dead white, not a high-grade jade.

2. Green and white jade. Refers to nephrite between white jade and green jade, which seems to be white but not white, and is like green but not green.

3. Green jade. Traditional Chinese green jade is dark green with gray or green with black. Green jade is the most common, ranging from pale cyan to a deep cyan of shiny green. Green jade is the hardest of nephrite, but its color is not as beautiful as white jade, and its value is lower than that of white jade.

The three best types of jade in Hetian are emerald green Hetian jade, lotus root powder and Tian jade, Yanqing and Tian jade.

1. Emerald green Hetian jade, Hetian emerald jade is produced in Qinghai. Its main feature is that the color is emerald green, white with green texture is delicate, both the delicacy of Hetian jade, and the color of emerald green, so it is welcomed by the market. A piece of fine green Hetian jade carving costs tens of thousands of yuan.

2. Lotus root powder and Tian jade, lotus root powder and Tian jade are also produced in Qinghai, and its color is relatively rare in Hetian jade. Lotus root and Tian jade are a kind of jade with a slight pink color, so it is very popular among young people. Therefore, lotus root powder and Tian jade are mainly carved into, beads, jade plaques, etc.

It takes about a few thousand yuan to buy a bracelet.

3. Yanqing Hetian jade, it is also produced in Qinghai, because under different luster, it will show a looming smoke blue, so it is a very unique Hetian jade. It is precisely because of this characteristic that Yanqing and Tianyu are also very popular in the market. Yanqing and Tianyu are generally used to carve landscape paintings, and its ** is about a thousand in the big space.

Precautions for choosing Hetian jade:

1. Don't blindly pursue white, the first thing you should consider is fineness.

2. The seed material is good, but don't blindly pursue it, the seed material also contains garbage material, and the mountain material also contains good jade. When you buy Hetian jade, don't just look at the ** chapter, you should get started more and slowly accumulate experience. Each locally produced Hetian jade has its own characteristics.

Similarly, the jade produced in each place has the best and the worst, and while caring about the origin, we must also look at the quality of the jade. Don't spend a lot of money to buy some junk seed material or Hetian production material.

3. The appraisal certificate can only tell you whether this piece of jade is Hetian jade in a broad sense, and the certificate will not tell you the origin and quality of the jade. That is to say, Xinjiang materials, Qinghai materials, Russian materials and Korean materials, etc., can issue Hetian jade certificates, but the difference between them is several times.
