Wan Hao said that jade: the look of jade

In detail, there is a lot of knowledge about jade collection. This article will focus on how to distinguish Liangzhu from the color of jade.

There are many colors of jade, including green, purple, red, yellow, gray, black, white, and so on. Among these colors, the most valuable is green, followed by purple, then red and yellow, and the completely worthless color is gray. It can be said that as long as the gray enters the jade color, it will produce a "dirty" feeling, reducing the value of jade, such as green, purple, yellow jade, if it is gray, the value of jade will be reduced.

Let's take a look at the impact of different colors on the value of jade, and what color is more valuable.

White : The glass type is white enough, pure enough

In the old jade system, white itself is a color of no value, but in recent years, with the rise of glass jade, the value of white glass jade has gained new recognition.

For white glass, the standard for measuring its color value is not pure enough, enough white - the more pure, the more white it is, the more valuable it is, the yellowish tone that you often see, or the whiteish blue Glass type jade, the value is not as good as pure white glass.

If the white glass contains a positive green color, its value is higher than that of pure white glass. However, in general, a good glass type with a green color is usually not too thick. In practice, there are some misunderstandings about this point. For example, many people mistake the “blue flower” of white ice or white glass for green – as long as you can observe it, these floating colors are ink. Green, some businesses will refer to this situation as a glass with green, actually belongs to "floating blue flowers." The glassy jadeite of "Floating Blue Flower" is worth less than the clean pure white glass jade.

Black : non-mainstream varieties

The black emerald is the ink on the market now. Mo Cui was not recognized before, but with the Taiwan region's love for Mo Cui, its market value was discovered. In the eyes of the fans, the color of the ink is deep and more suffocating. There are some additional meanings such as emphasizing evil spirits and avoiding evils. Therefore, there are many excuses and arguments. However, Mo Cui is not currently a mainstream product in the market.

Yellow : To be transparent

Yellow is sometimes an advantage in jade, sometimes it is a shortcoming, and needs to be analyzed in different situations.

In general, yellow will only become the advantage of jade when the seed is transparent, the texture is fine, the yellow is very bright, and beautiful. These yellows are often used for clever carving, adding a lot to the jade. The yellow color with a dull color and poor water head is often the shortcoming of jade, which is “dirty” in the words. For example, like a jade bracelet, if there are yellow spots and yellow spots, then the value of the bracelet will have a negative impact, but on the other hand, this phenomenon is helpful for identification - collectors can rely on yellow spots and yellow spots The characteristics of the jade are determined to be A goods.

And if a bracelet has three colors of green, yellow, purple, etc., it is also called "Fu Lu Shou", which is more valuable than only green jade. At the 2011 Wanruixiang Emerald Club New Year Jade Treasure Conference and Auction, one of the ice-colored three-color jade bracelets with a market price of RMB 300,000 was finally sold at a price of 165,000 after a fierce round of bidding. The scene of the Cuiyou have cast envious eyes on the winner of this lot, no doubt he has found a great "baby." In fact, jade is not the higher the price, the better, but to find those jade that are not expensive and have collectible value.

Red : Be transparent, don't "burn red"

The red color in jade is higher than the value of yellow, and its output is far less than yellow. From the senses, red is more intense and more beautiful than yellow, but not all red has high value. Only those red jadeites that are well-transparent are rare and of high value. These red dragonflies are made of red ring faces, flower pieces, safety buckles, etc., which are rare good things and have a good room for appreciation. However, there is a problem with the collection of Hung Hom, that is, in the market, you can often see a kind of "burning red" jade, such a red dragonfly is not worth collecting. The preciousness of red dragonfly lies in rare and natural, while the red dragonfly that is "burned red" is not only rare, but also different from natural jade, without the potential for appreciation and the value of collection. The "red-hot" red dragonfly often forms a uniform layer of red, which is not beautiful, and lacks aura. Merchants often do not admit that it is "burning red", but experts can easily see it.

Purple : To be delicate, to be rich

Purple is also known as "violet" or "spring." Both green and purple jade are called "spring belts." There are yellow, green, purple and white emeralds, also known as Fu Lu Shou Xi.

Strictly speaking, the output of purple jade is not particularly small, more than red scorpion, its block is larger, the seed is mostly sputum powder, usually the crystal particles are thicker and the transparency is lower. The real value of the violet is still a high quality variety.

At present, the purple jade is very polarized, the color of the purple jade is very delicate, and the price of the purple jade is very strong. It is in sharp contrast with the purple, jadeite with light, dark and fine texture. The gap is getting bigger and bigger. The original good violet bracelet is only a few tens of thousands of yuan, and now it has risen to 400,000 to 500,000 yuan, and a full-color violet bracelet, because of the lighter color, is only 1 to 20,000 yuan.

Green : saturated, rich, not partial

Green is the most valuable color in jade, which is recognized by many collectors. But if there is no seed at all, even if it is full of green, the value of jade is still not high. For example, a piece of green "Tielongsheng" raw material like the Myanmar public plate, the reserve price is only 80,000 yuan, but still no one cares. It is necessary to understand that even if it is green, it must be delicate and transparent, and it will be spiritual and beautiful.

There are many sayings about the green of jade, such as green onion, green seedlings, green spinach, etc. In fact, these statements are not important. Look at the green, depending on whether there is a shade of gray and black. If you have a gray hue, the green will be "dirty". If you bring a black hue, the color will be darker, and the gray and black tone will enter. It will make the green jade color and color "evil". There is also a white tone in the green, the result is that the green of the jade is diluted, the color is lighter, the saturation is reduced, so the value is much lower than the green jade without white tone.

There are two other situations, that is, greenish yellow or bluish. Yellowish is commonly known as boxwood green, and blue is commonly known as emerald. The color between the two is pure emerald green. In general, some blue or yellowish in green is acceptable and does not affect value. The value of green is reflected in the saturation and intensity of the color.

All in all, for all the colors of jade, the brighter and more uniform, the higher the value, which is in line with the basic aesthetic psychology of the public.
