Jade identification requires examining several key characteristics. Here are the essential factors our AI system analyzes:
- Texture & Transparency: Real jade has a smooth, waxy texture. Jadeite can range from opaque to nearly transparent (glass-like).
- Color Distribution: Natural jade shows uneven color distribution with visible color roots, unlike dyed jade which appears uniform.
- Luster: Genuine jade exhibits a characteristic vitreous to greasy luster that differs from glass or plastic imitations.
- Internal Structure: Under magnification, real jade shows fibrous or granular crystal structure.
- Weight & Temperature: Jade feels heavier than expected and stays cool to the touch longer than imitations.
Our AI system uses advanced image recognition to analyze these characteristics and more, providing you with a comprehensive identification report.
