No, recently an aunt went on a trip and bought a pair of jade bracelets for 65438+ 10,000 yuan. Full of green, aunt is successful this time! As a result, I took it home for identification. The expert looked at it and said that this bracelet is only worth a few dollars!
It turns out that this is not jade, but Ma Laiyu. Ma Laiyu is very similar to jade, so many people will confuse them, and the industry also calls Ma Laiyu fake jade.
Ma Laiyu is rich in green, with strong glass luster and translucency. Many people think that Ma Laiyu is of high quality in both varieties and colors, and has high collection value, so they buy in large quantities, even at the expense of bankruptcy. In fact, the production cost in Ma Laiyu is extremely low, and the general cost of Ma Laiyu Circle in the market is only a few dollars.
Many people think that the water of jade is very deep, and they are discouraged from jade. Because there are many jade imitations in the jade market, it takes a deep knowledge of jade to distinguish these imitations, which tests consumers' eyesight. Ma Laiyu has been an imitation of jade for several years. Now Lao Wang will teach you how to distinguish Ma Laiyu from Emerald.
1, observed by naked eyes, Malaysian jade is too bright and unnatural. It feels like floating on the surface. Except the best jadeite, jadeite can find its color source.
2. The proportion of Malaysian jade is 2.65, which is much smaller than that of jadeite (3.33) and its refractive index is 1.55, which is also lower than that of jadeite.
3. Carver: Because Ma Laiyu is made of quartzite, its texture is loose, and its structure has been destroyed during dyeing, which is not as good as the toughness and density of natural jadeite. Therefore, Ma Laiyu can't carve high relief and round carving, and the sculptor is very flat. The carver of natural jade pendant is concave and convex, which can show the spirituality of jade through the carver. This is unmatched by Ma Laiyu.
Nowadays, the jade market is mixed, and unscrupulous businessmen will use Ma Laiyu to cheat consumers. Therefore, be careful when buying jade to prevent being cheated.
