White Jade Market Mixed 20% is True 80% is Fake

Nowadays, most of the hobby of jade is concentrated on "white jade". This has also created a mixed bag of markets. In particular, the price of Grade 1 raw materials from Hotan County rose rapidly. It is a choice for many people to use Russian jade and Qinghai jade to sell Xinjiang white jade. In many markets in Shanghai, only 20% of white jade is sold literally, and about 80% are fake. For beginners, not rushing to enter the market is the only way to prevent them from buying counterfeit goods. Only by improving their understanding of white jade, they often look for, consult more, and then purchase jade in accordance with their own financial resources. This will often yield good results. . In addition, there is room for counterfeiting in any art market. This of course also includes jade articles. There is room for counterfeiting in both urban jewelry and some specialized markets. If the price is not artificially high, there is almost 20% to 30% of the allowance. For professional players, the price is a very clear scale.

Beginning in 2010, the white jade market has declined somewhat from 2009 or before. However, the entire market has been more regulated than before in the baptism. For those who are knowledgeable, prices are relatively transparent. Unclearly on the market, it takes a lot of money to buy an expensive jade without much money, which is much less than in 2008. As for the collection of white jade, it is very important to start “into the door” at the beginning. Only after clarifying the most basic concepts and accumulating a long time of experience, can it be possible to distinguish between the authenticity of jade and the possession and waiting for appreciation. Under normal circumstances, in the jade market, the future prospects for a good white jade are still promising.

Qian Zhenfeng, general manager of the Shanghai Arts and Crafts Service Department, senior economist of the US craftsman, senior economist, and director of the China Gem Association, has recently accepted an interview with this reporter. The basic concepts of white jade, as well as some of the hot issues of white jade were explained.

"White Jade" falsification has been announced: The white jade in the soft jade has always been at the highest grade. Author: How to divide the jade?

Qian Zhenfeng: Jade, not only in China, many countries in the world also produce, but the material species, texture, production process and cultural connotation can not be compared with the Chinese jade. Jade is divided internationally into jadeite and nephrite, which differ in mineral composition and physical properties and are distinguished by differences in hardness.

Soft jade are: white jade, green jade, white jade, jasper, ink jade, topaz, river jade and so on.

Other jades other than jadeite and nephrite include: Dushan jade, Lantian jade, Jiuquan jade, agate, loose ear stone, lapis, malachite, crystal, amber and coral.

In China and even the world's soft jade, white jade has always been the highest grade. In terms of origin, there is white jade produced by the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China. Specifically, it can be divided into white jade in Hetian area of ​​Xinjiang, white jade in Hetai area and white jade in Yutian area, etc. Xinjiang white jade is a traditional material of Chinese jade, with high quality and reduced production; white jade produced by Russia has been imported for more than ten years. There are white jade produced in China's Qinghai Province and white jade produced by Korea, North Korea and other properties.

Look at the shape, skin color, clarity and other identification white jade author: Xinjiang white jade how to identify the advantages and disadvantages?

Qian Zhenfeng: The advantages and disadvantages of Xinjiang white jade can be identified in terms of shape, color, texture, and clarity. Strictly speaking, to identify the quality of the inherent quality of white jade, it should be based on the original shape of its output, skin color, that is, the identification of the original stone, to distinguish it for seed material or gobi beach material, mountain stream material or mountain material, which is A more convenient and reliable method of identification. At present, the price of seed material is much higher than that of mountains, mountain streams, and Gobi beach jade.

In general, the white jade seed material is the best in white jade, with white color, moist, pure quality, fine quality, small jade, and few crack and miscellaneous stones. The jade of the Gobi Beach and the jade of the mountain stream are lower than that of the seed jade. The mountain material is lower than the mountain stream jade and the Gobi beach jade. This is just a general rule. Under the same conditions, this is the basis for distinguishing the advantages and disadvantages of various white jade.

Seed material produced in the riverbed is a smooth small block with good roundness, and the majority is small, dense and uniform structure, texture is generally better, most of the surface left with yellow, red, black and other weathered skin. Experienced experts generally speculate on the texture and color of the interior of the seed jade from the color of the epidermis and intaglio. In the seed, pure white seeds are optimal. Pure white seeds are also known as "light white seeds", surfaces such as condensate.

With color skin, there are many varieties, such as "white skin seed jade" "black skin (crowskin) seed jade" "jujube skin (or cigarette bag oil) seed jade "" autumn pear skin seed jade "" tiger skin jade "" Sunflower skin seed jade "" sugar skin seed jade "and so on. One of the most valuable is the "osmanthus flower seed jade" and "jujube red seed jade."

Beware of artificial seed material, artificial skin color I: Today's white jade has been more common, some people do not feel after buying the fake is purchased. Please talk about making false tactics, which may allow further identification.

Qian Zhenfeng: The continuous warming of the white jade collection market is accompanied by the spread of white jade materials and finished products in a false positive and inferior shoddy phenomenon. Among them, Bai Dongling Shi poses white jade, white marble (white marble) poses as white jade, and white glass (industry weigher) sells as white jade. These phenomena are not uncommon in the market, and collectors are deceived frequently.

The first is the case of artificial seeds. Xinjiang white jade seed material has long been washed by the river, infiltrated, taking the aura of the sky, the essence of the ground, its intrinsic, exquisite and flawless, body moisture, crystal condensation as fat. This texture and luster is not what other white jade. Artificial seeds, usually fake methods are: the jade jade or other similar jade and even marble cutting and forming with the shape of the seed jade, but because the natural seeds and jade skin in the river by the water, sand, both moist and Filled with fine blisters like skin pores everywhere, it forms a pit of uneven skin, and the appearance of the arc is very natural, and artificial false seeds will inevitably leave stiff marks. In addition to the fake Xinjiang white jade seed material, there is now a fake white jade gobi beach material and mountain stream material on the market.

Followed by artificial skin color. The color of the skin refers to a very thin layer of skin (about 1 mm) with a tan or other color on the outside of the seed and jade, which is caused by oxidation. This kind of secondary skin is nature's natural creation, and it can be said that there is no difference. The price of this skin-colored seed material is actually much higher than that of the non-leather seed material.

In the market, there are both fraudulent seeds and jades, and of course there are counterfeit skin-colored seeds and jade to seduce consumers everywhere. "The jade with a skin color is equal to the seed jade" was originally an experience talk, but now it is used by counterfeiters as a means of fraud - some of them are made of fake seed jade and some of them are skin color, while Others are made from real seed jade. , It is because some of the raw materials of seed jade texture, color is not good enough, hard false skin cover up the original appearance in order to improve the value.

The method used to make false skins is to heat the jade material (high temperature) and heat it, and then put it into a dark pigment and other chemical dyes to soak it and discolor it. At present, skin color is used as a trick to use chemical staining of dyes and plant dyeing. The false skin color generally gives the impression that the color is hard, inactive and unnatural; due to the high temperature, the cracks produced on the surface of the raw material are unnatural in the color, as well as the natural skin formed by the influence and oxidation of nature. The color is completely different. Artificial counterfeit skin color methods are more and need to be very carefully identified.

Finally, the material is false. Non-soft Jade white jade stone or other stones, through a variety of false tricks posing as Xinjiang white jade, in order to obtain profits.
