What does a real Ice Seed Jade look like? How to distinguish the real from the fake?

Ice jadeite is a relatively high, and the market value is relatively high some jadeite, now all on the market are a lot of fake ice jadeite, because you can make a lot of money by selling some ice jadeite through fakes. But for friends who don't know or understand jade, it is a difficult problem to distinguish the authenticity of ice jade. Today, I will share the method of identifying ice jade and tell you what real ice jade is.

Unscrupulous merchants in the market generally use water foam to pretend to be ice jade. The difference between water foam and ice jade, we only need to weigh it by hand. The weight of the blister is much smaller than that of the ice jade, which weighs with pressure and weight.

Some illegal merchants will use jade to pass off as ice jade. Natural ice jadeite, the surface shows a vitreous luster or grease luster, but I have seen the treated jadeite, the appearance of the luster looks unnatural, and some directly do not have a vitreous luster. If the above methods are still difficult to judge the authenticity of the ice jade, you can ask the merchant to issue an ice jade appraisal certificate (authoritative), see the appraisal results on the appraisal certificate.

The real ice jade refers to those whose color is colorless white, with good transparency, high clarity, and water head and feet, commonly known as glass ice jade. The appearance of ice jade is similar to ice, but it does not have the dazzling light of diamonds, nor is it completely transparent and transparent like crystals, but appears transparent, warm and harmonious, and unfathomable, which greatly caters to the gentleness of the Chinese, implicit but not revealing, maintaining the Confucian golden mean, and is deeply loved by the Chinese. Ice jade, if there is a flocculent or intermittent vein band blue, it is called "blue flower ice" or ice floating jade, which is a common variety of ice jade.

<> with the continuous development of the jade market, some merchants use some means to forge jade in order to seek profits. All kinds of fake, fake ice jade are everywhere. Moreover, some fake ice jades are very realistic, and it is difficult to identify.

If the green and green cover area is more than two-thirds, it should be 100,000 yuan to more than 200,000 yuan, or even higher. As people pay more and more attention to the artistic conception of jade, the floating flowers and floating green jade are also continuous. Therefore, when looking at the color of ice jade, it is necessary to combine its **, if it is full of ice jade only a few thousand yuan, you should pay attention, it is very likely to be dyed jade.

The texture of real ice jadeite is very transparent and bright, and it looks very full of water color, especially round, and very full, which can be distinguished from the texture, feel, texture, and gloss.

Real ice jadeite, it has particularly good light transmittance, and there are no impurities; In general, in the process of identifying jadeite, it is necessary to identify its touch and light transmittance.

The color is natural and generous, the transparency is very high, the luster is soft, and it feels cold and lubricated to the touch, which is very good.

Identify the authenticity of ice jadeiteYou can weigh the weight, look at the luster, scratch the hardness, listen to the sound, and touch the feel. Here's a closer look:

1. Weight: The proportion of jadeite is relatively large. If you hold the jadeite in your hand and move it up and down a few times, you will feel a heavy pressure on your hand.

This feeling could be a real jadeite; The processed jadeite will have a fluttering sensation in the hand and will not feel a heavy feeling of oppression.

2. Look at the luster: The surface of natural jadeite has a bright glass or grease luster, while the surface of the treated jadeite will be dull or gelatinous luster.

3. Scratch hardness: jadeite has a high hardness. When you use a sharp object such as a fingernail or a knife to scratch or scratch its surface, real jadeite will have a slippery feel without leaving any scratches.

And the treated jadeite has left obvious scratches on the surface due to the damaged structure.

4. Listen to the sound: hang the jadeite with a rope, and then gently tap it with a glass rod, and the natural jadeite will make a crisp and melodious sound; The sound made by processing the jadeite striking is dull.

5. Touch: Natural jadeite has rapid heat transfer and heat dissipation, and when you put it on your face or on the back of your hand, you will feel cold for a short time. In addition, natural jadeite feels delicate and smooth on the surface, and the treated jadeite surface has a rough feel.

Notes:

In the market, it is common to hear merchants divide jadeite into A, B, C, etc., and there are differences between these grades.

1. Jadeite A goods: refers to jadeite that has only been mechanically processed, without any artificial chemical treatment such as filling and coloring, and its color, structure, and transparency are maintained in a natural state.

2. Jadeite B goods: refers to the jadeite that has been pickled, bleached and filled, and the method is to increase the transparency of jadeite by soaking the inferior jadeite raw materials with strong acid, neutralizing with weak alkali, cleaning, filling, drying, filling, polishing and other processes.

3. Jadeite C goods: refers to the jadeite that has been artificially dyed, and the method is to heat the jadeite that has no color, so that the cracks between the crystalline particles are increased, and then put into the dye locally, so that the color enters the jadeite along the cracks, so as to achieve the effect of beautification.

4. Jadeite B+C goods: Using the method of processing B goods, green pigments are injected at the same time as chemical glue, so that the germplasm and color of jade become very beautiful.

Identification methods. 1. Look at the luster.

A good piece of "ice jade" must have a crystal clear, white and flawless, although it does not have the warm grease luster like white jade, but has the sparkle of glass luster; And some unscrupulous merchants have treated jadeite, not only the surface luster looks unnatural, but some are directly without glass luster.

2. Look at the emerald nature.

"Jadeite" is unique to natural jadeite and cannot be seen in any other jade. The general "ice jadeite", whether it is its jadeite raw material or finished product, as long as you carefully observe on the polished surface, you can see the interwoven structure of the spotted crystals, and the counterfeit products made of glass, porcelain, etc. do not have this "jadeite" characteristics.

3. Listen to the sound.

Under normal circumstances, the sound of gently tapping the natural "Ice Jade" will be louder and crisp and pleasant; Jadeite or counterfeit products that can be treated will make a very dull sound after a slight collision. In fact, as long as you listen carefully, you can still hear the difference. However, it is worth noting that by "listening to the sound" to identify the authenticity of ice jadeite, not all ice jadeite is applicable, only the "ice jade bracelet" is more suitable.

4. Weigh the weight.

"Weigh the weight" is the simplest and most straightforward method. As long as you hold it in your hand and weigh it, the general natural jadeite will have a feeling of pressure when you pick it up, giving people a heavy feeling. Here, I have to mention that in the market, unscrupulous merchants are generally used to use water foam to pretend to be ice jadeite.

This has to be noted, under normal circumstances, the specific gravity of the water foam is much lighter than that of the ice jadeite, and it is light to hold in the hand.
