Nian Cui - Natural Burmese Jadeite (Type A) - Ice-Lustrous Clear Green Floral Pendant with 14KGF

14KGF (14K Gold Filled, USA) This is a popular design material in recent years. Compared to traditional gold plating, it is less prone to fading and oxidation. 14KGF involves using high-pressure technology to bond a layer of pure 14K gold onto the entire surface of a base metal alloy. The outer layer of K gold is hard, highly resistant to wear, and will not peel off. It contains 5% gold. Therefore, 14KGF possesses the characteristics of 14K gold while remaining affordably luxurious. Product photos are taken with an iPhone 13pro near a window in natural daylight.

This is entirely different from high-end imitations that are also called "Type A"! (laughs) The allure of jadeite lies in its moist, translucent quality, the flow of its color, and its unique shapes, making each piece one-of-a-kind. The better the translucency and color, the higher the price; even slight differences can result in vastly different values. It is not possible to distinguish genuine from fake jadeite with the naked eye. Certificates from reputable gemological appraisal centers typically cost $1000-$2000, so choosing your seller wisely is very important. ^^ https://farm1.staticflickr.com/860/42999762604_bf0b5e7d09_z.jpg <<About the Gemstones and Minerals We Use>> All the minerals in our shop are personally selected by us from the Guangzhou Jade Market every one to two months.
