What are the five elements of Hetian jade?

Hetian jade belongs to the traditional culture of China. Hetian jade has great toughness, good structure and high water content, which is the most important feature that it is superior to other jade. Hetian jade belongs to tremolite jade, with fine texture and less mineral impurities.

According to the five elements theory of Feng Shui, everything in the world is made up of five elements, such as water, fire, earth, gold and wood. The colors are matched with five elements, namely blue, red, white, yellow and black, and the five colors correspond to the five internal organs of the human body, namely liver, heart, lung, spleen and kidney. Therefore, according to the theory of five elements, white jade nourishes the lung, sugar jade nourishes the heart, sugar white jade nourishes the heart and lungs, topaz nourishes the spleen, jasper nourishes the liver, jet jade nourishes the kidney, and blue and white jade nourishes the kidney and lungs.

Matters needing attention and key points of Hetian jade:

Compared with seed material, the price of Hotan Mountain material is only about one tenth, and the "starting price" will be lower for beginners. And there are many good materials in the mountain materials. If you choose them carefully, you can buy good treasures. However, in recent years, because most of the mountain materials are mined by blasting, many cracks often appear, and even a few kilograms of materials can't produce a few small pieces, so special attention should be paid when purchasing.

Avoid buying more cracked materials or directly buy cleaner finished products. Hetian jade seed material is beautiful, the structure is mature and delicate, and the fat feeling is distinct. Good hetian jade seed material is calculated by gram price, ranging from hundreds to tens of thousands of pieces per gram. Leather color, whiteness, fineness, oiliness, defects and carving are all factors that affect the price.
