Most of us know that Old Jade is top-grade. But do you know what Old Jade is?
DoesOld Jade mean antique jade or vintage jade? The answer is NO. It is a general popular misunderstanding. Old Jade is also called Old Mine Variety, itis a variety of jadeie jade. This variety of jadeite jade is fine grained with very good transparency. And, it should has an evenly distributed pure, deep, vivid green color, so called Imperial Green.
In brief, Old Jade is a jadeite variety that has both fine grain and imperial green color. It is the top-grade jadeite jade. Nowadays, some glassy variety jadeite jade is also calledOld Jade. This kind of jade is fine grained with good transparency, but its color might or might not be imperial green.
Next time, whenwe are going to buy an Old Jade, we'd better pay more attentionto its texture instead ofperiod.
