Jade value
Jade had many values: - ** Investment Value **: Jadeite is a non-regenerative resource, and its origin is relatively unique. The main origin of jadeite raw materials in Myanmar is difficult to mine (in recent years, manual mining methods have been used), which has reduced the output. This has caused the price of raw materials to rise. In recent years, the price of jadeite has been rising, so it has investment value. - ** Cultural value **: Although the exact time when jade was introduced into China was not determined, the Chinese people had deep feelings for jade and inherited the jade culture.

It was favored by the imperial families in history and was seen as a symbol of power and rank. As a type of jade, jade also carried such cultural implications. - [Collection value: Gem-grade jade can only be produced in Myanmar in the world. It has high requirements for geological conditions, resulting in the scarcity of top-grade jade resources.] At the same time, raw gemstones were rare and could not be regenerated. This caused the price of high-end jade to soar. Jade jewelry kept hitting new heights in major auctions, and the value of collecting them was huge. When evaluating the value of jade from its own quality, there were many colors of jade. There was a saying that "there are thousands of agates and ten thousand kinds of jade, thirty-six waters, seventy-two green, and one hundred and eight blue." Although there was no strict grade standard like diamonds, the industry generally used color and species as the standard to distinguish the value of jade. Outsiders paid more attention to color, while professionals paid more attention to species. For example, green jade was relatively expensive, especially imperial jade. The value of raw jade depended on the size of the window, the quality of the raw stone (such as glutinous, glutinous ice, and other different quality grades), and other factors. The market value of different quality raw jade or finished products varied greatly. The novel "Ledge" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!

Even if the jade quality of the best old jade was comparable to Hetian jade, there were still white impurities and low clarity.
