People often say that gold is priceless and jade is priceless. As the mainstream of the Chinese jade market, the price of jadeite can be said to be very different. After years of market law, people have summed up the dimensions and standards of jadeite value. The quality evaluation of jade has five main aspects: 色, water head (透明性), テクスチャ, clarity and carving.
Color is the primary factor in evaluating the quality of jadeite. The evaluation of color is called “positive, 厚い, positive, uniform” in the Chinese gem industry. The so-called “positive” means that the color should be pure, and the green requirement is emerald green without a trace of variegation; “密集” means that the color saturation should be high; “どれの” means that the color should be bright; “uniform” means the whole jade The color distribution should be uniform, and there can be no side light phenomenon. The pros and cons of the color of emeralds should be evaluated completely according to these four words.
加えて, due to the different regions, people have different evaluations of the color of jadeite. Needless to say, the color is pure, but there are different preferences for the color of the jade. 一般的に言えば, the northern market likes the darker, dark green jadeite, even if the color is a little bluish, it is very popular; while the southern market is different, it is generally required to have bright colors, preferably slightly yellow, a kind of name The “Yang Qiao Green” variety is very popular. Customers in Taiwan Province particularly like the “golden green” ジェイド, which is actually “high green”, “ditch green”, “golden green”, “sunny green”, 等. These terms vividly describe the color Features. しかし, these laws are inconvenient to translate, and it is difficult for foreigners to understand their true meaning. したがって, when introducing foreigners, it is best to consider the four aspects of “positive, strong, positive, and even”, which may be more acceptable.
In addition to the more common green varieties, 赤, yellow and purple are also very common in jadeite. 一般的に言えば, their quality is not very good, and the price is far less than that of green varieties (unless they are particularly good).
