How to identify gold inlaid jade pendant
First of all, we must look at it with our most basic naked eyes. Generally, good gold-inlaid jade crystals are transparent and the patterns are natural. The internal fiber state is not easy to be imitated by other things, so it is true, otherwise it is false.
And listen with your ears. The sound of real gold inlaid jade pendant is very crisp, while the sound of fake artificial jade is rather dull. In addition, real jade is relatively hard. In general, the hardness of real jade is 5.5. Under normal circumstances, traces will be drawn on the glass plate, but the jade pendant inlaid with gold is not damaged, so it is real jade, otherwise it is fake. The fake gold inlaid with jade scratched on the glass plate and stopped.
Identification of jade pendant inlaid with gold
(1) Look at the color:
The higher the purity of gold jewelry, the darker the color. According to the color, the fineness can be determined: more than 95% of deep red yellow, 90-95% of light red yellow, 80-85% of light yellow, 65-70% of blue yellow, only 50-60% of blue white, and less than 50% of yellow white. The so-called seven greens, eight yellows and nine reds can be used for reference.
(2) Weighing:
The specific gravity of gold is 19.32, which is heavier than silver, copper, lead, zinc, aluminum and other metals. Because the volume of gold is more than 40% heavier than that of silver, 1.2 times heavier than that of copper and 6. 1 times heavier than that of aluminum. Gold jewelry will feel heavy in your hand, but fake gold jewelry will not. This method is not suitable for gold ornaments with precious stones.
(3) Look at hardness:
Pure gold is soft in texture and low in hardness, and shallow marks can be drawn with nails, and tooth marks can be left when teeth are bitten. The higher the color, the softer it will be, and the harder the copper content. Pure gold is soft and easy to bend, and the lower the purity, the more difficult it is to bend.
(4) Listen to the sound:
Real gold with a purity of more than 99% will beep when thrown on the ground, without rhythm and elasticity. Fake or low-quality gold sounds crisp and dull, with a lingering sound and a violent beating.
Where is the gold inlaid jade pendant?
The value of gold inlaid jade pendant lies in gold. Jade is valuable, but it is only a foil. Therefore, to verify the authenticity of the jade pendant inlaid with gold, it is only necessary to identify whether the gold is real or not. By burning the jewelry at high temperature, and then observing the color change when the temperature returns to normal temperature, we can know the authenticity of the jewelry. If the color remains the same and the surface is bright, then it is naturally real gold. And the fake will turn black after being burned by the flame. Acetic acid can also be used to test the authenticity of gold, because gold is an inert metal, so it will not react with vinegar, while counterfeit goods are the opposite.
