Like smoke, it is like a smoke, and it is like a beautiful garden
Mysterious and dreamy, colored like a violet flower
So it is also named violet jadeite
This purple emerald, noble and elegant
Beautiful as the purple fairy in "Moonlight Treasure Box"
But this charming purple emerald is commonly known as "see the light die"
What is the reason?
There is a saying that "see the light dies"
Refers to being in light
Violet emerald has a rich and vivid purple color
But in the sunlight, the color becomes pale or even white
Will violet emeralds really die in the sun?
Let's listen to the editor to talk about it
01
Why is violet jadeite purple?
The reason why violet emerald is purple
It is because it contains manganese, a coloring substance
The more manganese, the purpleer the color of the violet emerald
In most cases, purple often coexists with green
Pure purple is very rare and expensive
At the Emerald Market
Depending on the richness and saturation of the emerald color
Divide violets into five categories:
Royal purple, red purple, blue purple, pink purple and violet
Royal Purple
Reddish-purple
Blue-purple
Pink purple
violet
02
Why does Violet Emerald "see the light and die"?
Most of the violets that are common in our lives
Either reddish-purple-pink, or blue-purple-blue
It is rare to achieve positive color
However, if the light source in the store is yellow, the color is not bright yellow
It was dark yellow, a feeling of heaviness
The background of jewelry and jade is black, white and yellow
When yellow light penetrates and diffuses, the color brightness is lower
And jewelry, especially jadeite jewelry
It has strong reflectivity due to its own glass luster
This is related to the visible spectrum of physical properties
Red has the longest wavelength and purple has the shortest
Under the influence of wavelengths
The purple that enters the human eye will be more intense or lighter in color under sunlight
And it has to do with the transparency of purple emerald
As the saying goes, "Ten Purple Nine Woods", "Ten Purple Nine Beans"
Purple emerald transparency is generally low
Reflects prominently on a white background in sunlight
This impermeable texture
Looking at the cotton wool inside in the sun, you will feel that the overall color is white!
In fact
Many different colors of emeralds
It varies greatly in different lighting environments
03
All violets will "see the light and die"?
Definitely not
Common light bounces off the violet after entering it
So we can see that the violets are easy to run color
But it is precisely the pink purple in the purple that is the easiest to "die at the sight of the light"
In natural light
Blue-purple solanum or blue-violet color will be more brilliant
There are indeed many jadeites in the market that will die of light
But not all jadeite will
It mainly depends on the richness of the type and color
Some species do not die in the light, but are very dry
Basically nothing
If the lust is not intense, it is usually easy to "see the light and die"
And those ice and purple violet jadeite materials
It's a good collectible
Violet jadeite that sells at sky-high prices
In fact, judge the value of violet jadeite
Whether it is "seeing the light and dying" is not the key point
Instead, we should look at the bottom first
How many colors occupy the bottom
It is deep or shallow, and it is floating on the surface
Or does it emit colored light from the inside out?
The value of violets should always return to the water, color and craftsmanship
The water color is excellent
The exquisite craftsmanship of the top violet jadeite is naturally the first choice for collecting
There is a lot of upside
In those years, the sky-high price of violet jadeite was auctioned
Let's take a look:
At the Beijing Jade Auction, a pair of purple jade double bracelets sold for 190 million yuan
The jade is delicate and translucent, the purple is rich, the color is bright and charming, and the screen is full of glue texture!
Rare natural purple jadeite with diamond ornament, transaction price RMB: 8,379,180
Jadeite worth 600 million violet glass - "Star of Zhaoyi"
Top natural violet jadeite bead chain Transaction price: HK$18.88 million
Myanmar natural violet jadeite bead necklace, transaction price: HK$13.54 million
Why does violet have such a high value?
There is an inherent saying in the jadeite world
That is, red emerald green and purple are expensive
Truly high-quality purple jadeite is worth as much as green
Jadeite has the saying "ten purple nine thick."
Noble purple jadeite is mostly rough in texture
Thus encounter delicate violets
It is no longer a question of high value, but an opportunity!
After all, a good color and planting water are to buy one piece less
The depletion of resources doomed her value to not decline
Inferior violets will see the light die
High-quality violets are sought-after
When everyone buys violet jadeite
Best viewed in sunny natural light!
