Why do people have low recognition of China traditional jewelry?

Traditional jewels in China include jadeite, agate and pearls. Compared with people's purchasing power of yellow and silver jewelry, people's recognition of traditional jewelry is really low. There are many reasons for this. First of all, jewelry has not yet formed a standardized price system, such as how much is a gram of gold? So people can compare. The price of primary jewelry is on the high side, and thousands of jade bracelets are just the beginning of jewelry. Finally, people don't understand the jewelry culture and think that the jewelry style is outdated and does not conform to the aesthetics of contemporary people.

First, there is no clear price mechanism. Without rules and regulations, no industry can prosper. So far, there is no standard pricing system for jewelry. Therefore, the development of traditional jewelry is relatively backward, if a reasonable price system can be formed. It will enhance the liquidity of traditional jewelry, so it also has investment value. Take jadeite in traditional jewelry as an example, the price ranges from several thousand to several hundred thousand, which is very opaque. Moreover, the jewelry culture is profound. When we listen to experts, we often don't understand the meaning at all, and it's easy to be deceived.

Second, jewelry culture is not popular. China's jewelry culture began to originate from primitive society. At that time, when people were looking for work tools, they found stones as beautiful as jewels. At first, jewelry was only used as a medium for human beings to communicate with heaven. Later, with the continuous development of the dynasty, jewelry was also endowed with the Confucian concept of propriety and righteousness, so ancient people respected wearing jewelry. However, with the continuous development of gold and silver jewelry in today's society and the low price, it is generally accepted by people. Moreover, traditional jewelry gives people a classical and elegant atmosphere, which requires high clothing collocation. So it is generally not accepted by modern people.

Third, it does not conform to modern aesthetics. Generally speaking, the price of jewelry is generally more expensive. In addition, people don't know much about jewelry, and the water in the jewelry industry is deep. I was cheated if I wasn't careful. Even people who like jewelry can only look at the ocean and sigh. If one day the jewelry market can have a standardized price system, I believe more and more people will buy jewelry.
