Why is green the representative color of jadeite?

As the representative color of jadeite, the phrase "green is the most expensive" has established the value and status of green jadeite. In the traditional jade culture of China, people even refer to emeralds as kingly greens, from which we can see the dignity of emeralds. The jargon of jadeite with strong Chinese style "there is water everywhere in Longli" also shows the rarity of green jadeite.

Jade "Why is green more expensive"? Can be analyzed from three aspects:

First, the color-causing factors of green jadeite

The green color of jadeite original stone is caused by chromogenic elements chromium and iron: iron ions are often light green, while chromium ions are very bright green. Due to the different ratio of chromium to iron, jadeite will appear different green. Pigment ions continuously enter the crystal lattice of jadeite for a long time in a certain temperature range, which can make jadeite green very positive. The color formation process of jadeite is accompanied by hydrothermal activity, which is a multi-stage color formation process with different intensities. It is difficult to meet the above conditions at the same time, so super jadeite is very rare. King Green, Yang Green, Gold Silk Green, Apple Green, Mabel Miao and other high-grade jadeites belong to Laokeng Jadeite, with rare output, high value and large appreciation space.

Second, the scarcity of green jade.

In the existing jadeite original stone, the proportion of green jadeite is relatively small, and the jadeite original stone with rich green and ice-soaked foundation is even less. With the gradual depletion of resources, it is now difficult to find high-quality green jadeite. Once in a while, I just need to pay homage. The top variety of green jadeite is Longshi jadeite. Its roots are colorless, the color is not strong or light, and it is not tattooed or cotton, which makes jadeite present gorgeous temperament from the inside out. Just as Yang li Ping's Dragon Stone King Emerald Egg Bead Chain is not only excellent in gloss, but also silky smooth and delicate. It makes people feel that the water is about to overflow. It is radiant, extremely warm and very rare.

Third, the culture contained in green jade.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "wearing gold shows wealth and wearing jade keeps peace", which shows people's good wishes for jade. As the most representative color in nature, green represents vitality and symbolizes hope and life.

Jade jewelry is the most "Chinese style" category, which not only leads the strong consumption orientation of China people, but also causes the deeper value of China people.

People like jade because it has the culture and beautiful meaning of other gems. Just like this jade bean, the homonym of "blessing bean" is "longevity", and three beans are a row of three elements: happiness, wealth and longevity. It not only shows the unique fashion side of "China Element", but also contains the profound cultural heritage of China. The wearer seems to be in the cultural atmosphere of the integration of tradition and modernity, and the humanistic connotation is fully exposed.
