Is the so-called jade green for expensive, but because usually full of green jade price is relatively high, let a lot of people. But there is also a called dry green on the market "jade", because the green concentration is relatively high price is relatively cheap, deep ordinary consumers love so, what is this kind of dry green jade? Is it jade?







In fact, the so-called dry green jade on the market is a strong green based opaque jade, the biggest feature of this jade in addition to the full color of green, is completely no dry sense of water head, which is also the main reason it is called dry green.



Generally speaking, jadite is based on jadite mineral pyroxene minerals composed of fibrous aggregates, a kind of jade, translucent to opaque or very few transparent. Jadite is mainly composed of jadite or jadite and sodium and sodium calcite pyroxene, which can contain amphibole, feldspar, chromite, etc., common varieties are old pit jadite, ice jadite, water jadite and other varieties.



In the general sense, the content of sodium chromite pyroxene is about ten percent, and the dry green species is mainly composed of sodium chromite pyroxene of sodium chromite pyroxene rock, also belongs to a kind of jadite, but the jadite composition is very low. In other words, dried green species is much higher than the general content of chromium ion jade and even a jade jade jade jade jade jade jade jade jade jade rock.



The existence of chromium ion in jay-jade rock is the fundamental reason for the green of jay-jade. With the increase of chromium ion content, the green of jay-jade will become rich and brilliant, and then the iron dragon jay-jade which slightly exceeds the general jay-jade is produced. But when chromium ion content is high to a certain degree, jadite will evolve into sodium chromite pyroxene, that is, dry green, at this time, dry green is no longer the jadite on the traditional sense.



Although in the academic dry green because jay-jade content is small, can not be called jade. But because the dry green has a full body of green, and color is not evil, give a person a kind of dark green pleasing to the eye feeling, so in the market is still very popular, businesses also in order to cater to the public psychology, it is called jade, so dry green jade is just a commercial name.



In addition, from the overall point of view, the dry green jicui belongs to the middle and low grade jicui. Therefore, the price of jade dry green is not high, generally in hundreds to thousands of between, the main reasons are: one is because of its poor germplasm reasons; Second, its carving technology is relatively rough. However, there are a few dry green jade pit kind of best, bright color is very beautiful, few impurities, glossiness is better, the only is no jade kind of water, the price of this kind of jade will be slightly higher, generally in the middle of the price.



In addition to the price, there is also a need to pay attention to. Because of its heavy color and low transparency, dried green jade is often carved into accessories. The accessories made of dried green jade are often thin in thickness, so as to reduce too thick green, but it will also increase the possibility of fracture because of too thin, so a considerable number of dried green jade to use 18K gold substrate process, its purpose is to protect the thin dry green jade does not break.
