Color jade has become the darling of market metrics

The Hong Kong Jewellery Show, the largest jewellery event in Asia every year, was opened at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center on September 19th. The purple, yellow and black series of coloured jadeite became a highly regarded market darling. However, during the entire exhibition, it was difficult to see the presence of B-goods and C-items. The Chinese mainland jewelry production companies basically gave up the production of such products. In the corners of Southeast Asian countries' jewelry booths, individual products could be seen sporadically.

What causes the two types of jade to gradually disappear in the market? In the Pearl River Delta jade processing factory, we learned that: economic development, reduced demand, and a decrease in relative profit margins have made B and C cargo jadeite increasingly unsatisfactory; but A cargo jadeite has a far cry from the price. When collectors enter the market, they should be careful to distinguish them.

Visits: Excavation of large shopping malls B and C were visited in some markets in Guangzhou. Among the high-end shopping malls in Tianhe and Yuexiu districts, B and C cargoes have disappeared. In Shangxiajiu and Hualin Jade Market, where there are piles of jadeite processing products, all-in-one is still a low-grade A cargo jadeite, with a darker shade and more enamel. The minimum price is 10 yuan. Surprisingly, such low-priced products, after purchase, were sent to the Guangdong Gold and Silver Jewelry Chamber and the Guangdong Geological Bureau testing station for simultaneous testing, and have also been verified to be genuine natural jade.

Dongshan Department Store responsible for the procurement of jewelry Manager Lei, currently in Guangdong Province, only the tourist area sporadically doing jade B, C cargo, the scale is also continuously shrinking; Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other big cities, not to mention top shopping malls, is a mixed bag In the wholesale market, two years ago, it no longer drew on similar products.

Manufacturer: B goods, C goods, low profits do not want to do in the 90s of the last century, the emerald B, C cargo why disappeared? He visited Vietnam and Thailand and discovered that its large shopping malls are still full of B cargo and C cargo, which is related to the local economic situation. In addition, due to inflation, for the business of Guangdong, the production and management of B, C cargo is increasingly worthless. Chen Wenguang, general manager of Guangdong Jinyin Pavilion, wrote an account: “A piece of jadeite pendant of 5cm×5cm square, if it is a dyed product of B, the production cost is generally 5~6yuan, because the process of heating and dyeing of blast furnace is not so easy. The selling price is as high as twenty or thirty yuan at the most, and no one wants to sell high. Excluding intermediate fees, the profits of B and C cargo jade are extremely small."

The emerald processing company in Panyu learned that the same size A cargo pendant belongs to the scrap of jadeite bracelets, necklaces, and carved pieces. It was processed into the manufacturer by kilograms; even if it was green bean seed material The production cost after processing is twenty to thirty yuan. Under normal circumstances, it can be sold at three or four hundred yuan. And in the pendant of 10-20 yuan, the production cost is extremely low.

Market: The benchmark for measuring the value of "color"

The color of jade is exceptionally rich. It is a very important factor in evaluating the merits and demerits of jadeite. Among the many colors, red, green, and purple are the main colors. They are all high-end colors in jade. Among them, green is the most beautiful and precious.

However, with the A cargo jade, the price varies greatly, and the investment value is also very different. The annual Hong Kong Jewellery Show is Asia's largest jewelry event and can be described as the industry's weather vane. This year's show highlights the color of jade, indicating that the market for this kind of jade will continue to rise in the next few years; coincidentally, Guangzhou Baiyun Airport [6.38 -0.47% share bar research report] The large-scale jade sculpture exhibition held in the same period, black, yellow and red jade, has become the main raw material for craft ornaments. Among them, purple jade, yellow jade and black jade are the products with the most varieties and highest attention at the show. The price of a pair of purple full-colored purple bracelets is as high as 5 million to 8 million Hong Kong dollars.

The difference between the price difference between Jadeite and Jadeite has been greatly affected by this change. Liang Zhanxiong, president of the Guangdong Gold and Silver Jewelry Association, explained that the popularity of color jade is complementary to the heat of color stones in the world jewelry industry since 2008. In the composition of Jadeite's value, the importance of the "color" factor has surpassed the importance of "species" in the traditional assessment standards and has become an important criterion for measuring jade, especially middle-grade jade.

It was learned that in the 7-color A cargo jadeite, the green value was the highest, followed by the purple jadeite, and the blue floating flower jadeite and the white jadeite were descending. The yellow, red and black jade were still at the bottom.

For a particular color of jadeite, the greater the color concentration is, the better the color is. There is a natural difference between the full color and the colored color. The color is full and uniform, and the pure and pure is the best.

The same type of purple, purple, flawless bracelet, full of purple one can be sold for more than 2 million yuan, with only a period of purple, the rest is white-gray, the price is less than 500,000 yuan, the price difference of five or six Times.

The same is the 56 ice green beaded necklace, if it is full of green and uniform color goods, the price on the Hong Kong Jewellery Show is more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars; and if the light green ice, even if the color is uniform, it can only sell To three or four million Hong Kong dollars, the price difference of 30 times.
