Myanmar is the largest jadeite production base in the world, and most jadeite in the world comes from Myanmar. Although there are a few jadeites in China, Malaysia and Japan, they are not comparable to Myanmar in quantity and quality, so jadeite is called Burmese jade. Jade is known as the king of jade, which is in short supply in the market and belongs to high-end luxury goods. Very popular in the jewelry industry. Emerald is crystal green, and the stronger the green, the greater the value. The annual turnover of Myanmar can reach 70% of the total jadeite production in Myanmar.
Every year, a large number of jewelers gather in Myanmar to choose suitable jadeite wool for the next year. Although there are many jadeites in Myanmar, there are few finished jadeites. Their processing methods and memory have not reached a high level. Most of them export jadeite raw stone and jadeite wool. Many domestic tourists go to Myanmar to play, and rarely bring jadeite back from there, because the market basically sells jadeite raw stones, which is extremely uncertain.
Jade is a rare treasure, but the ornamental value of natural jade is not high. The texture of jadeite can only be presented by artificial polishing and carving, so the processing technology is equally important for jadeite.
