God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 908 Top Suet Jade

"That's right, this is the kumquat peel that experts talk about," Lin Xiaoya nodded and said, "It's actually quite easy to distinguish, whether it's kumquat peel, deer skin or other names, it's all determined according to the actual color, and They are very vivid, and you can’t go wrong just by looking at their names.”

"That's it." Xu Jingxing nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Then how is the quality of this piece of material? What grade does it belong to in Hetian jade?"

Lin Xiaoya thought for a while, "Let's put it this way, Hetian jade is a large variety with many classifications. Basically, the jade produced in Hetian can be called Hetian jade. In addition to being classified according to color, it can also be classified according to jade quality. Whether it is Jade materials of that color can be divided into five grades. The lowest grade is the kind of inferior jade with many impurities, which is basically a stepping material, while the third grade and above are basically the valuable ones. The easiest way to tell the difference is that there are no impurities.”

"You mean that as long as there are no impurities, it can be regarded as the third level?"

"Well, it can be said that, but in addition to impurities, it also depends on the fineness of the texture, the degree of oiliness, the presence or absence of broken veins, etc. Experienced people can use these elements to determine the grade of jade."

"Then what grade is this piece of material?" Xu Jingxing continued to be his curious baby, of course not pretending, but really curious.

Lin Xiaoya flicked her drooping bangs before continuing: "This involves another category of Hetian jade, do you know?"

"Well, is it the difference between mountain material, mountain water material and seed material?" He tried hard to search for the poor information in his mind.

"That's right, this is the classification. There are certain differences in the quality division of different types of materials. For example, the same piece of jade material the size of a ping-pong ball is small in size among mountain materials and mountain water materials, and has little value. , but if it is seed material, it is a very good size, even the best size, because for seed material, the larger the better, because the larger the size of the seed material, it means that it is washed in water The shorter the time, the less moist the inside of the material will be, which is unique to the seed material.”

Speaking of this, Lin Xiaoya added: "In addition, the most valuable part of the seed material is not only the material itself, but also the leather shell formed by long-term running water washing and oxidation. Many people even want that layer of skin. The shell, the more beautiful the shell, the higher the value, and even formed a leather shell party, who don’t do carving at all when they get good seed materials, and only play with the shell on the surface of the material for fun.”

Xu Jingxing was unfamiliar with jade, but he was no stranger to sculpture and artistic aesthetics. On the contrary, it was his major. When Lin Xiaoya said that, he immediately understood, because he had discovered before that the skin color of these seeds was very beautiful, and the appearance It is also very delicate, and the shape is round without any edges and corners. It is an excellent handle piece. It is indeed very suitable for original collections. After all, there are not a few collectors who like the uncanny workmanship of nature, such as collectors of strange stones.

Even he himself likes the kind of natural artworks without the slightest artificial carving, but there are more natural artworks that can catch his eyes. After all, his artistic aesthetic ability is very strong, and his vision is naturally high. Ordinary strange stones are ignored.

But these seeds are different, not to mention the value of the jade itself, just the colorful but natural and beautiful skin is enough to make him look at it differently, plus the aura contained in the seeds, how can he not like it? .

Even if I didn't like it before, I like it now.

However, he was still curious as to what grade this piece of kumquat peel belonged to in Hetian jade.

Fortunately, Lin Xiaoya is a qualified instructor, so he didn't need to ask any more questions, so he continued: "If you know the most valuable part of the seed material, it's easy to make an appraisal. Let's look at the quality of the jade first, and the quality of the jade depends on the fineness of the jade. The degree of oiliness, the degree of oiliness, whether it is broken, whether there are impurities, etc. The seed material of this kumquat peel is obviously free of impurities, and the degree of fineness is also very good. This can be seen from the outer skin, the small particles formed by oxidation It is very uniform, as if sprayed with a spray gun, which means that the material is very delicate and compact, and the degree of oiliness is not easy to judge. This is a very subjective factor, but it is not difficult to distinguish it through a strong flashlight. The degree of oiliness is still very high, and as for the fragmentation, there is no need to worry about it, if there is any fragmentation, there is no way to hide it with a strong flashlight."

Speaking of this, Lin Xiaoya concluded with a smile on her face: "So I can guarantee with great confidence that this material is the most top-grade material, that is, a super-grade material above the first-grade material. Because it is white jade, it is what people often say Suet jade."

The word sheep fat jade is known to almost everyone, even elementary school students who have never been in contact with jade are probably familiar with this word, because this word is often used as an adjective to describe various things, what "sheep Fat and jade-like skin" should not be too overwhelming.

But it also shows from this perspective that the jade culture has indeed been deeply rooted in the land of China. It is no wonder that the Chinese people and the places where the Chinese people walk have a strong jade culture, so that the prices of various jade are getting higher day by day. .

Of course, Xu Jingxing is also someone who has seen mutton fat jade, but what he has seen is the finished product, and it is an old object, with a layer of paste on the outside, which is different from the raw material from the outside. In addition, he suspects that the mutton fat jade he has seen The old jade object is made of mountain material, so in terms of jade quality, it is also somewhat different from the seed material of the kumquat peel in his hand.

No way, the difference in this kind of variety exists objectively. The general mountain material is drier than the seed material. Even the top mountain material is different from the top seed material. In the eyes of a discerning person In the eyes of non-human beings like Xu Jingxing, the difference is even greater.

However, mutton fat jade is only a word that covers a wide range, and it has no precise boundaries. It is also mutton fat jade, and there are differences between top mutton fat jade and ordinary mutton fat jade.

Obviously, the seed material of this kumquat peel is also relatively top-level in suet jade.

"Then, this top-quality suet jade seed material should be very valuable, right?" He asked curiously. Although he didn't plan to sell it, it's good to satisfy his curiosity. If the material is worth tens of millions, even if There will also be a distinctive sense of satisfaction in your hand, which may be stronger than having the same amount of cash.

Cash can be earned at any time, but a piece of priceless suet jade is not so easy to buy.
