1, look at the texture
This is the most important factor to identify nephrite. The texture is "fat as coagulated fat, clean in connotation, thick and moist in quality and firm in pulse." This is the specific standard of good nephrite. On the other hand, if the texture is thick and dry, there is no luster in it, and the appearance is not delicate and moist, it is inferior jade.
2. Look at this color
Nephrite can be divided into white jade, topaz, sapphire, jasper and jet due to different colors. Generally speaking, in the case of the same or similar texture, white jade is the most expensive, followed by topaz, and sapphire and sapphire are of lower value. Color is one of the criteria for judging nephrite. Even white jade depends on the degree and purity of white. If it is blue in white or gray in white, it will affect the value of jade.
3. Look at that sculptor
The so-called "jade is not cut and not polished" is of great significance to nephrite. Generally, sculptors mainly look at three aspects: first, the old and new works, the longer the age, the higher the value; The second is to look at the content of the work, in which the value of auspicious patterns is not common; The third is to look at the fineness of the work. The more meticulous the work, the higher the natural value.
