Learn how to avoid risks and pitfalls when buying jadeite. These are things you should know before purchasing jadeite, solely to help customers buy the right jade pieces. (Please do not place an order, this is for experience sharing only. If an order is placed incorrectly, a random item will be shipped.) https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54962969735_d2088b8c2e_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54939564585_1eff708ab8_b.jpg **🔸 Avoid Buying Jadeite Set in Silver (18K Plated) 🔸** Many ornate silver-inlaid jadeite jewelry pieces are common in the market, but these items are mostly made with low-value jadeite. Some even add a layer of reflective paper to the back of the jadeite to enhance its icy appearance; or press a layer of colored paper to alter the original hue, making the color appear rich and vibrant. Additionally, some products are made with extremely thin jadeite, such as hollowing out the back of cabochons to create a more translucent effect. Most of these silver-inlaid jadeite pieces are mass-produced. Logically, truly high-quality jadeite would not be set in silver, and the craftsmanship of silver inlay is generally rough. For beginners, it is not recommended to purchase these "high-appearance, low-substance" products. Even professional collectors would not use them for personal wear, unless just for casual adornment. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54938378762_b9cd83e134_b.jpg **🔸 Jadeite with "Master Certificates" is Not Recommended for Purchase 🔸** Approximately 99% of "master certificates" in the market are forged. The cost for a genuine master to carve a piece of jadeite can easily exceed tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars (approximately 40,000 New Taiwan Dollars). If the carving fee alone is so high, it's impossible for low-priced jadeite pieces to come from a master's hand. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54939511049_140d5c170e_b.jpg **🔸 Be Cautious with Items Not Clearly Labeled "Guatemalan Jadeite" in the Title 🔸** The cost difference between Guatemalan jadeite and Burmese jadeite is significant. Therefore, many sellers do not mark it prominently, referring to it simply as "jadeite" to sell it at a higher price to those unfamiliar with the market. Honest sellers will clearly state that the item is Guatemalan jadeite from the beginning. Of course, Guatemalan jadeite itself is a worthy item to purchase, and I personally like it very much, but its price positioning and origin must be transparent. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54938378757_4229381db1_b.jpg **🔸 Items in Livestream Rooms Featuring a "Master Carver" are Not Recommended for Purchase 🔸** Those who claim to be master carvers or industry experts in livestream rooms are, in most cases, not genuine masters or experts. True masters usually have their own studios, are busy with work, and charge high fees, making it unlikely for them to spend time selling jadeite in livestream rooms. The so-called "masters" in livestream rooms are mostly just the owners playing a role. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54942215952_c5eeb38a6e_b.jpg **🔸 Do Not Purchase Jadeite from Livestream Rooms on the Myanmar Border 🔸** Some livestream hosts broadcast from the Myanmar border and sell seemingly inexpensive jadeite. Many local sellers bring jadeite that has been treated with dyes, polishing powder, or other coloring methods to their livestream rooms. As long as a sale is made, the livestream host often doesn't pay much attention to whether the jadeite is naturally colored or treated. As long as the forgery isn't too obvious, they will sell it to buyers seeking a bargain. In recent years, there have been numerous scams involving the direct sale of fake jadeite, with various methods flooding social platforms. Firstly, buyers often find it difficult to distinguish authenticity after receiving the goods. Secondly, even if a problem is discovered, there is usually no recourse. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54942215947_6589721e29_b.jpg **🔸 Do Not Purchase Jadeite That Appears "Very Green, Very Beautiful" but is Excessively Cheap 🔸** These items are most common in livestream rooms: vividly green, brilliantly purple, and as translucent as ice-type jadeite, but sold at a very low price, claiming to be from "original sources." However, a moment's thought reveals that sellers would not sell high-quality jadeite at such low prices. Jadeite has its own market value, and excessively low prices inevitably indicate a problem. Such items are mostly highly deceptive fakes, without exception. ............................................................ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54963085670_0d4ec1f39f_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54975223790_930e821cb7_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54975204328_f087774c14_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54969927337_270d728ae1_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54963085670_0d4ec1f39f_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54970991258_dea0a1b18d_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54963085670_0d4ec1f39f_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54971071444_2bcdd6d900_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53668660224_a3ded661a0_b.jpg #Jadeite #Jade #Gemstone #Jadeite #BirthdayGiftRecommendation #CabochonPendant #JadePendant #Pendant #JadeitePendant #PeaceAmulet #CabochonRing #BurmeseJade #BurmeseJadeite #NaturalJadeite #JadeiteWholesale #HongKongJadeite #HongKongJadeiteJewelry #HongKongJadeiteStore #HongKongJadeite #HongKongJadeiteShop #AJadeite #JadeiteTutorial #BirthdayGiftHK #JadeiteCabochon #ValentinesDayGiftChoice #ValentinesDayGiftRecommendation
