How to Treated Jadeite Jade B or C?

Posted by Eugene Grechko on

** Treatment Process About Grade B or C Jadeite Jade:

         All treated jade ( here is talk about jadeite jade, Chinese people calls 翡翠玉 ) ,The B grade jade is made with jade that is considered "less perfect" with inclusions and structural issues such as lowest texture, all cracks, and they are treated with a powerful acid (sulfuric or hydrochloride). This lengthy process may be repeated if necessary. The acid fumes are also quite toxic. Resulting stone has now been changed: the sodium in the sodium silicate of jade’s structure has been leached out and with them the internal stains. After the treatment process, many industry professionals will say the stone is no longer considered jade at all. The stone is then put into a neutralizing agent, after which it is impregnated with polymer with the use of a centrifuge. The stone is then entirely covered with a hard, clear plastic-like coating. Cutting and polishing are then performed as they would be on any jade stone.

** How much is Treated Jade (B or C grade Jade) Worth?

         Actually, If people want treated lowest Grade A jadeite jade to Grade B, they will dyed at same time. Make more colors. That's why people called B+C.

        Treated B+ C jadeite is worth approximately $10 -$200,  Although sometimes B +C jade has almost no value because many truly consider treated jadeite to not be real jade anymore. Grade B or C jadeite jade values at around $10-$200. Actually, no value. Just a costume jewelry. 

  **       This information is important for the buyers to understand so they are aware of the potential risk, and to make an educated purchase. And Baikalla Jewelry will always be your trusted personal jade jewelry source.
