Is jade a jade or a gem? Emerald, although we are familiar, is it a gem or a jade? Some people may not understand. Jadeite, also known as jadeite, has a dual character. Known as a gemstone, it can be included in the five precious stones; also known as jade, the king of jade.
Emerald
In the eyes of Westerners, the jade is mysterious and sorrowful, and it is an incredible treasure of the East. Because of the regional differences, the contrast between culture and art and aesthetic taste has formed. Jade is favored as a gem in Southeast Asia, especially in the Chinese world. The reason is closely related to the oriental people's advocating peaceful, harmonious and inclusive character. The main color, green, is a color that is stable, feminine, full of vitality, and harmonious.
The deep heritage of jade culture gives the emerald extraordinary charm. The specific geological conditions constitute the humanistic connotation of jade and jade culture. It carries the common system of jade and gemstone, so two characteristics can be seen from its basic traits. Jadeite is a densely interweaved mineral body composed of jadeite. The hardness is 6.5-7, and the color includes almost all natural colors, and the density is 3.30-3.34.
Jadeite also has the typical characteristics that other gems do not have - green. The so-called green nature is a kind of flake flash that is carefully observed with the naked eye or viewed with a magnifying glass to see the uneven size. It is commonly called “flying wings†and the small piece is called sand star. The texture of jade is very different, and the gloss is from glass to grease and sub-fat. The texture is translucent - sub-transparent - opaque, from physical structure to hardness, color analysis is basically in line with the characteristics of jade. However, from its unique green and dense structure, the lustrous color of the glass and the translucent crystals are in line with the important characteristics of the gemstone. Therefore, in a broad sense, jade is a kind of gem, from the unique aesthetic habits of the Orientals. Its process characteristics can also be called jade (hard jade, jade jade, jade jade).
Emerald green, that is, green, is its most important quality evaluation parameter. In addition to the quality of the quality (bottom, seed), the quality of jadeite must be strong, positive, positive, pretty, and even. The high-grade emerald green is green and full of tension. Greener than emerald green, greener than green chalcedony, greener than olivine, its moisturizing, saturation, purity makes the color of other gemstones eclipsed. The jadeite is deep and unobtrusive, calm and unobtrusive. According to its high and low value, most of the high-grade materials are processed into ring faces, pendants and bracelets.
The middle and low-grade ones are suitable for ornaments or other miscellaneous pieces. To a certain extent, they inherit the profoundness of the Chinese national crafts and accessories, and are closely related to folk customs, customs and concepts. The subject matter is extremely complicated and covers a wide range. Jadeite is self-contained in craftsmanship and has formed independent industry rules and conventions in business. Usually some gems are priced in grams or carats, while emeralds should not be measured in terms of color, texture, perfection, engraving, and intention. As the saying goes, "gold has a priceless jade", where "jade is priceless" cannot be misinterpreted as an unevaluable price or a price that is mistaken for no limit, but a criterion that is difficult to precisely define, that is, within the industry. Professionals often have a certain range of gaps in the valuation of jade, but after all, they still have relatively objective evaluation criteria.
