The First Trick:
When it comes to white jade, you can't be cheap. Don’t fall for the stories of unscrupulous sellers who promise great deals. Thinking you're smart by buying low is a common mistake. The production of high-quality white jade is limited, and the raw materials are becoming scarcer. As people's standards of living improve, more and more people are drawn to the beauty and value of white jade.
Naturally, genuine white jade carries a higher price. That’s why some buyers end up purchasing fakes just to save money. There's an old Chinese saying: “One point is worth the price.†In business, everyone wants to make a profit. Unless there's a special reason, no one would sell something for less than they paid. For example, if an item costs 800 yuan, it's unlikely to be sold for 700 unless there's a compelling reason.
The Second Trick:
When you're buying white jade, take a moment to think about the cost involved. The carving of white jade is mostly done by hand using traditional tools. Although modern technology has made its way into the process, most of the work is still done manually. Jade carvings require a high level of skill, with every detail carefully crafted by master artisans, polished to perfection.
Therefore, the labor cost is an essential part of the total price. For example, a piece from the Baiyu Square brand usually costs over 1,000 yuan, and the labor alone for a jade pendant may exceed 100 yuan. So, it's unrealistic to expect extremely low prices. If the value doesn’t match the price, it's probably not real. Avoid paying unnecessary fees or falling for scams.
The Third Trick:
High-quality white jade has a very fine texture, feels warm in your hand, and has a soft, waxy luster. When holding a piece, check if it feels heavy and whether the surface is smooth and free of bubbles. Also, test the warmth in your palm. It’s best to buy from reputable stores rather than street vendors, as their products are often questionable in quality and authenticity.
