Agate belongs to mass-produced jade (except Nanhong), with large reserves and output calculated in tons, so it is impossible to talk about the potential of maintaining and appreciating the market outlook.
Generally speaking, the texture and jadeite are better, and the value and jadeite are higher.
What's the difference between jade, emerald and agate? Jade, jadeite and agate are all called jade in a broad sense, while only jadeite (jadeite) and nephrite (that is, Hetian jade in China) are called jade in a narrow sense, and others can only be called jade.
Jadeite is an aggregate mineral with glass luster and complex composition, showing a mottled crystal interwoven structure, that is to say, small particles like salt can be seen in jadeite, and the structure of jadeite is a bit like the structure of muscle, which is not difficult to distinguish by careful observation. The value of jadeite lies in its color, texture and transparency.
Jade is the general name of all jade and jade. China usually refers to nephrite, and the best nephrite producing area in the world is Hotan County, Xinjiang, China. Nephrite is mainly composed of actinolite-tremolite, which is fine in texture, moist to the touch, oily and shiny, felt-like in structure and easy to distinguish. Nephrite is evaluated by texture and color.
Because the prices of jadeite and nephrite are very different, I suggest you find an experienced friend to choose together when you buy them.
Agate belongs to low-grade jade raw materials. The aphanitic texture (that is, no crystal particles can be seen) has obvious band stripes and glass luster, which is easy to distinguish.
Pay attention to the difference between agate and chalcedony. Agate is aphanitic, with obvious banded texture and glassy luster, chalcedony is microcrystalline, without banded texture, glassy to oily luster.
Wearing jade often is good for your health, because jade contains many minerals that are good for your health and can be absorbed by your body when you wear it.
Jed. Agate. Jed. What's the difference between jade and jadeite? Jade means jade. Hetian jade is famous in China, followed by Dongling jade, Xiuyu jade, dushan jade jade and Qingtian jade, and Shoushan stone is barely counted among jade.
Jade is a kind of jade with various colors, in which red is the positive color of princess and green is the positive color of emerald. Dark red, brownish red, purplish red, purple, yellow, brownish yellow and other colors are all categories of fees; All kinds of green, gray and white belong to the category of emeralds. Green is the most precious color in jadeite, and it can also be said that it is the value of jadeite. "Green" is the most important factor to determine the value of jadeite. It is generally believed that the pure green sun is the top grade, and the people all say that the best jade is spinach green, which is the best among the greens. It is said that Emperor Qianlong had a leek-green emerald, which was considered as a national treasure. Although some jadeites are green, they give people a cold feeling. Such green is worthless, and there is a great possibility of fraud. The texture of jadeite pays attention to water, which generally refers to the light transmittance of jadeite. Because jadeite belongs to translucent jadeite, the more light passes through, the greater the water head. Experts have found many metaphors to describe the "species" of jade, that is, the texture. For example, the glass type has the highest transparency and the highest water head. In addition, there are egg green species, ice species and oil species, all of which are associations given by looking at the surface of jade. The best kind of glass jade is full of water, giving people a feeling of "tears". Besides green, purple and orange are also common, and solid colors are equally precious. If a piece of jade has three colors at the same time, it is called Fu Lushou, which is usually used as an ornament. The price of white jade is lower.
Agate is a kind of low-grade gem. Natural agate is only brownish gray, and artificial agate often has purple, green and red products.
What's the difference between agate and jadeite? Agate is an aphanitic gem, mainly made of silicon dioxide, usually opaque with a band pattern.
Jadeite is a polycrystalline aggregate mainly composed of jadeite.
The transparent agate you usually see is processed, but really good jadeite can really grow into a transparent form.
Do you know the concepts of crystal and amorphous upstairs? Both are amorphous, okay? Don't mislead people if you don't understand.
What is the difference and correlation between jadeite and agate and jade? The relationship between jadeite, agate and jade is equivalent to the relationship between edamame and beans, which is an inclusive relationship. Jade is a big category, and jadeite and agate are all types of jade. .
According to the naming principle of gemmology, any stone with ornamental, rarity and durability can be called jade, and there are many kinds of jade.
As far as value is concerned, jade can be divided into three grades: high, medium and low. There are only two kinds of high-grade jadeite minerals, namely jadeite (jadeite) and nephrite (hetian jade). There are many middle and low grade jades, including Xiuyu, dushan jade, lantian jade, Marble Jade (Afu Hanyu) and Seasonal Jade (agate, Huang Longyu and Ma Laiyu all belong to this category). . . etc
The difference between agate, jadeite and jade is that agate pattern is meticulous, jadeite is clear and jade is heavy. It is divided into three grades: transparent-translucent-opaque, which has no impact on health.
jade
Jadeite, also known as jadeite, jadeite and Burmese jade, is a kind of jade, mainly produced in the Lu Wu River basin in northern Myanmar. Jadeite is mainly composed of jadeite or jadeite, sodalite and sodalite, with glass luster, transparent-translucent-opaque, and rich colors. Red, yellow, blue, green, blue, purple and black can all appear, and there are many kinds, including glass, ice, wax, bean, flower green and white green.
agate
Agate, also known as Kate Ma and Horse Brain, is a chalcedony mineral, which is produced in many countries in the world, such as China, India, Brazil and the United States. The main component of agate is silicon dioxide, which is waxy luster, translucent to opaque, and usually has many colors such as red, green, yellow, brown and white. There are many kinds of agates, such as pictographic agate, aquatic agate, scenic agate, southern red agate, warring States red agate, silk-wrapped agate, etc., which are often used as decorations or ornamental.
jade
The minerals commonly known as jadeite are mainly jadeite (also called jadeite, the main component of which is NaAlSi2O6) and nephrite (tremolite and actinolite, which show various colors due to different chemical compositions, but the main component is Ca2(Mg, Fe)5Si8O22(OH)2). Jade in a broad sense includes not only jadeite and nephrite, but also serpentine, lapis lazuli, agate, coral, marble and other precious stones.
After a simple understanding, we can distinguish from the following aspects:
1, judging from the structure: jadeite is a fiber interwoven structure, and the metropolis can see the particles that make up the minerals through a magnifying glass; However, agate aphanitic aggregates are dense in structure, and generally no crystal particles can be seen.
2. Distinguish from color: agate is bright in color, evenly distributed, with obvious color bands and no obvious color sources and color roots, while jadeite is mostly flaky and filiform, unevenly distributed in color shape, with color sources and color roots.
3. Distinguish from luster: jade is mainly glassy, while agate is waxy, which is easy to distinguish.
4. In terms of density: the density of jadeite is 3.25-3.40g/cm? Agate 2.6-2.7 g/cm? With the same volume, jadeite feels heavier than agate.
5. From the fracture: the fracture of jadeite is dark serrated, while the fracture of agate is semi-bright shell-shaped, and the difference is very obvious.
6. Judging from the presence or absence of emeralds, emeralds are a unique symbol, and agates do not have the characteristics of emeralds flashing.
What's the difference between agate and jade flower? Agate and jade flower have different materials, but relatively speaking, agate has more color changes and jade is more expensive.
1. Agate is an aphanitic aggregate with dense structure, which means that no crystal particles can be seen, but jadeite has a typical fiber interwoven structure, which is easy to identify by magnifying inspection.
2. The green agate sparkles a little blue in the green, and the green of jadeite is pure. Moreover, green agate is artificially dyed, with uniform color distribution and no obvious color shape, while the color of jadeite is mostly in a state of uneven distribution such as flake and filiform, but agate has obvious banded stripes, which is easy to distinguish.
3. The fracture of agate is semi-bright shell-shaped, and the fracture of jadeite is dark serrated, which is very obvious. The specific gravity of agate is 2.65, and that of jadeite is 3.3. Green agate is obviously light and feels obvious. In addition, agate does not have the characteristics of emerald flash. They are also very different in color and shape.
Jade, agate, which is the most precious and valuable? First of all, the beauty of stone lies in jade. So in a broad sense, any beautiful stone can be called jade.
There are many kinds of jade, including jadeite, agate, Hetian jade, xiuyan jade, dushan jade and so on.
Jadeite and agate are both kinds of jade. Emerald and agate are a big classification, which includes both worthless treasures and priceless treasures. So unless there are two concrete physical comparisons, it is hard to say which is the most precious and valuable.
But in the general market, ordinary quality jadeite is more expensive than good quality agate.
Agate. Emerald jade What's the difference? How to tell which is which? Agate is a colorful jadeite original stone, and the sky-blue jadeite is white and flawless.
