How does the transparency of jadeite make the transparency of jadeite better?

The transparency of jadeite is an important factor affecting the quality and value of jadeite. When we appreciate jadeite, we always mention the water of jadeite. In fact, the transparency of jadeite and the water of jadeite are inextricably linked. Everyone wants their emerald to look more transparent, so how to make the emerald's transparency better? Let's first understand the factors affecting the transparency of jade. Below is a small series of China Jewelry Merchants Network to introduce the relevant knowledge of jade transparency. Let's take a look.

Emerald transparency and influencing factors

The transparency of jadeite, also known as "head" in the mouth of the trade, refers to the depth through which the light can pass through the jade, also known as "a few points of water." Generally speaking, if the transparency of jadeite is relatively high, it is called a long head, and if the transparency of jadeite is relatively poor, it is called a short head.

Factors affecting the transparency of jade:

1. The structure of the jade

The structure of jadeite is generally divided into two aspects, one is the mineral crystallization inside the jadeite, and the other is the mineral distribution inside the jadeite.

First of all, the mineral crystallization inside the jadeite is sometimes large, and sometimes it is some fine particles. The size and uniformity of these crystal particles determine the transparency of jadeite to a certain extent. Generally, the crystal is smaller. The transparency of jade is better.

Secondly, the more uniform the internal mineral distribution of jadeite, the higher the transparency of jadeite, and some jadeites will be filled after the cracks, and the transparency of this jadeite will be greatly affected.

2. Impurity components of jadeite

Because jadeite is a natural mineral, there are some impurities in the jadeite, and the impurities in the jadeite also include two parts. One is the trace elements contained in the jade itself, and the other is the jade inside. Mineral impurities.

First of all, we all know that jade contains many trace elements, which can also improve our body, but sometimes it affects the transparency of jade because of these trace elements. The elements of iron, manganese and chromium contained in jadeite, these elements and other inclusions have a great influence on the transparency of jadeite.

In addition, there are many mineral impurities in jadeite, such as amphibole, omphacite and other minerals. These mineral impurities will affect the transparency of jadeite, so the less impurities, the better the transparency of jadeite.

3, the color of the emerald

Many people will be curious, can the color of jade also affect the transparency of jade? In fact, the friends who have the heart have found that the deeper the color of the jade, the worse the transparency of the jade, which is also a reason. From a scientific point of view, there are electronic transitions in the jade crystal field. The electronic transitions of different energy levels will produce different colors, and the number of mat transitions determines the depth of the jade color, and the more electrons participating in the transition The greater the energy consumption of the incident light, the deeper the emerald color is, the worse the transparency will naturally be.

4, the thickness of the jade

The above three points are the internal factors affecting the transparency of jadeite, and the last point is the factors from the appearance. The thickness of jadeite also affects the transparency of jadeite. Generally, the same kind of jadeite of water, in general, the thinner the transparency, the thicker the emerald transparency is.

How to improve the transparency of jade

Many people want to make their jade look more transparent, but they don't know how to change the transparency of jade. In fact, you don't have to worry. Baojie has two methods to help you improve the transparency of jade to a certain extent.

1, polishing and polishing

The jade's polishing is an optimization process that most jade products have to undergo. After polishing and polishing, the jade looks smoother and more delicate. This jade surface looks like a mirror and can better converge external light. It can make the jade's head look better.

2, carving skills

In general, many master-level engravers can use their own carving techniques to better introduce the outside light into the jade. For example, some masters will treat the non-engraved backlight surface into a concave curved surface, which will enlarge the light-receiving area of ​​the jade, so that the jade can absorb more light, thereby improving the transparency and transparency of the jade.

The transparency of jade has a great influence on the price of jade. Generally speaking, the transparency of high-grade jade is very good, but the jade of good color is not necessarily high-grade jade. Therefore, sometimes when choosing jade, "water" is more important than "color."
