All green stones are not necessarily jadeite. We must see a lot of green stones similar to jadeite. In order to avoid all jadeite friends from buying fake goods, I have sorted out the second phase of identifying jadeite and green similar stones for you to learn. Zhengyang green jadeite 1. Green agate: most natural green agates are impure green, dark green and brown green. The colorful green agate is often the product of artificial dyeing or the misnomer of green chalcedony. The natural agate is darker in green 1. The green agate has uniform color and parallel color bands. The polished surface is smooth without orange peel effect and granular structure. Obvious parallel color band 2. The relative density is smaller than that of jadeite, and it can be obviously felt lighter than that of jadeite when weighing. Large agate is lighter than heavy agate. Colored quartzite: Colored quartzite is widely used in markets and stalls, and is called "Malay jade", "Korean jade", etc., which are confused with these names. The most common is ring face, followed by jade clasp and necklace. Natural quartzite jade bracelet (Malay jade) 1. Shine a flashlight close to the sample from the side, and the granular structure can be seen with the naked eye. Enlarge to see the sponge gourd pulp structure. Granular structure can be seen. Enlarge to see the sponge gourd pulp structure (this is a natural quartzite jade). 2. The early dyed quartzite is red under Charles filter, but now most of them do not change color. This identification result is for reference only. The internal structure can be seen with the naked eye. 3. Glass: imitation jadeite glass has a long history and is often called "feeder" and "stone" in the industry. Nowadays, green glass imitating jadeite is more common in the market, and can be found everywhere in small tourist markets, low-grade gem or jade markets. Imitation is the same as apple green jadeite. 1. Imitation jadeite glass has uniform color, and if there is color band, it is usually flowing. Flowing color bands are not parallel to the color bands of agate, and the color bands of glass are irregularly arranged. 2. Bubbles are common in the imitation jadeite glass. Although the bubbles of the imitation jadeite glass with good modern technology are small, they can be seen with a 10x magnifying glass and flashlight lighting, and most of them are pink green balls. Bubbles in glass 4. Tianhe stone: Tianhe stone is just similar to jadeite in color, so it is easy to identify the finished product. The green color of Tianhe stone is very different from that of jadeite, and the proportion of Tianhe stone is small, which can be used as a reliable identification feature. Blue Tianhe Stone Bracelet 5. Green marble dyed green marble is mostly used as bracelets, carvings and other large imitation jadeite products, which are mainly found in low-grade gem markets. Dyed marble 1. Dyed green marble is dark in color, with a blue-green tone, slightly transparent to opaque. The color is blue-green 2. The relative density of dyed green marble is small and the handle is light. Marbles have the same characteristics as agate. 3. The dyed green marble has loose texture, extremely dull knocking sound, and obvious color distribution along small fractures. Knock each other with hands or two bracelets, but the action should be light. High quality translucent emerald should be sold at a price not lower than the best jadeite. Similar to jadeite, it is translucent emerald with poor texture. Among them, the small ring surface cut and ground with translucent emerald is not easy to distinguish from jadeite. The price of top emerald is very high. 1. The polished surface of translucent emerald may have pits or undulations caused by cracks, but there is no orange peel effect. The white spots in the figure are the pits on the surface. 2. The relative density of emeralds is less than that of jadeite, and some emeralds turn red under the color filter. Stepped emerald ring face 7. Grape stone: The grape stone is smooth, clean, crystal clear and lovely. It is better to have large grains and round shapes that can also form a figure in the form of relief. The smooth, bright, crystal and lovely grape stone grape stone has a yellow or blue tone, mostly transparent to translucent. Grape stone has high transparency. Grape stone usually contains cotton like inclusions inside. Because of its high transparency, the contents can be seen by the naked eye
