Natural jade will give people a transparent aesthetic feeling, and its richness will be infinitely magnified after being carefully carved by the master craftsman, reaching the level of appreciation and artistic height. Natural jadeite has absolutely no bubbles. Only natural glass and amber appear in natural jewelry. If it appears on other jewelry, it means it is synthetic or imitation.

The differences are as follows:

1, color. Real jadeite feels smooth and looks shiny in the sun. The pattern inside is also exquisite, which has a cool feeling. Fake jadeite will feel rough, the surface is not very smooth, the color is dull, and there will be bubbles inside.

2. Hardness. Usually, the hardness of jadeite is very high. You can scratch or scratch the surface of jadeite with a sharp knife, leaving no scratches, which proves that it is real jadeite. The scratches that left an impression were fake.

Step 3 soak in hot water. Put the jade in boiling hot water, and after a period of time, see if it fades, or if it fades when rubbed with a cloth. If both tests fade, it is false, because the false ones are usually soaked in dyed hot water, which will run out of fuel, but it is true if it does not fade.

4. It's on fire. The method of burning and hot water bubble is roughly the same. Put the jade on the lighted candle and burn it with flame. Real jade will not fade after burning. After the fake jadeite is fired, the color on it will obviously fade.

5. Observe with a magnifying glass. For some jadeites with cut faces, you can look at the cut faces with a high magnification magnifying glass. The real jadeite section will have obvious irregular broken lines and delicate internal structure. The fake jadeite is still shiny and watery under the magnifying glass, which is obviously artificially processed.

6. Listen to the knock. Tie the jade with a rope and hang it in the air, then tap it gently with a hard stick. If it makes a very crisp sound, it's genuine. The noise was dull and proved to be false.

7. weigh. Jade moves up and down a few times in your hand, and there is a heavy downward pressure. If you feel this way, it is really jade. It is a kind of lightness to hold the emerald of the ear clip in your hand.

Extended data

1, anti-collision, high temperature and acid-base liquid corrosion.

Although jadeite is essentially a kind of jade, its texture is hard, and its Mohs hardness is 7. Carving with a sharp knife will not leave traces, but it also has its fragile side, which needs attention when wearing and maintaining daily.

A large number of jadeites are used to make bracelets, but in the daily wearing process, if there is a collision and cracks, it will affect the beauty of jewelry, but it will be scrapped directly. Therefore, it is very important to handle jade ornaments carefully to avoid collision.

When the jade bracelet collides, you can continue to wear it if the crack is not serious. If the fracture is divided into two parts, it can be remedied by wrapping it with gold or silver. If the fall is relatively fine, you can choose the broken part and refit it into other jewelry, such as obvious green segments or big green spots, which can be processed into ring faces or small pendants such as fear and pepper.

2. It is not advisable to wear anti-high temperature baking when cooking.

Emerald is a gem with a certain amount of water. In the last process of jadeite processing, wax dipping and polishing will be carried out, so that a layer of wax-like substance will be attached to the surface to maintain the moisture inside jadeite. This can cover up the tiny cracks on the surface of jadeite and increase the transparency of jadeite.

Therefore, when wearing it, it is necessary to avoid sun exposure or high temperature baking, which will make jadeite lose moisture or the wax on the surface volatilize and crack. Try not to wear jade ornaments in sunny beaches and other places; In addition, take off the jade ornaments before entering the sauna.

Many people wear jade bracelets and cook directly. In fact, baking and firing will make jade lose its wet moisture, make its variety dry and its color lighter. Therefore, for precious jade ornaments, it is best to take them off when cooking.

When not in use, you can put the jade ornaments in a relatively closed and humid environment, such as soaking them in clear water, or smearing olive oil or light colorless oil, and then packaging them in sealed plastic bags. However, you can't use engine oil with strong color, because the oxidation and yellowing of engine oil will directly affect the color of jadeite.

3. Wash in time in summer to avoid sweat corrosion.

Jade jewelry should not be in contact with acid, alkali and organic solvents, such as various cosmetics, perfumes and hairdressing agents. These things will corrode the surface of jade, so it is not recommended to wear jade jewelry when taking a bath.

Sweating is the most common in midsummer, and substances such as salt, volatile fatty acids and urea contained in sweat will gradually erode the appearance of jadeite, thus destroying the "brightness" and "luster" of jadeite.

Therefore, it is best not to play with the jade in your hand in summer, and those ornaments that are worn on your body and close to your skin, such as bracelets and pendants, should also be washed with neutral washing liquid, such as neutral facial cleanser and shower gel. If individual sculptors have difficulties, they can brush them lightly and put them in the shade to dry.
