The collection of jade is not as expensive as possible

An ordinary jade jade pendant, a year ago price was only 6,000 yuan, but unconsciously, this time quietly discovered that this jewelry has climbed 10,000 yuan "mark", which is the current price trend of jade. Regardless of nephrite or jadeite, prices have skyrocketed and Jadeite has staged a “crazy stone” market.

According to Ms. Shen from a jewelry store in Guangbai Department Store, the Nanfang Daily reported that in recent years, the price of jade has been rising in a spiral manner. Last year, suddenly there was a jump-type increase, and the relatively good quality of jade was even within six months. Go up 5 times. For example, a bracelet with “yang green” prices last year was about 30,000 yuan, but now it is already over 120,000 yuan.

For the sharp rise in the price of jadeite, experts in the industry said that apart from the depletion of raw materials, there are some jade merchants who have deliberately accumulated hoardings. Some jade merchants put jade materials in their hands and do not process them, leading to a more jaded market circulation. The less you have, the more you control the upstream part of your product. In addition, high import tariffs on raw materials are also very important reasons.

Although the price of jadeite has risen, Ms. Shen said this does not mean that they will earn huge profits. In fact, because the price increase leads to a decrease in buyers, they are “very injured”. It is understood that due to the price of emerald to ordinary consumers feel expensive, thus inhibiting certain needs, leading to the emergence of a certain market "has no price" phenomenon.

In addition to jade, the price of diamonds is not low. Since 2011, the price of rare varieties of diamonds has risen by 20%-30%. For example, a common one-carat diamond in the market may have a price of 200,000 yuan in 2010. However, at the end of last year, the price was already around 240,000 yuan.

The industry believes that last year's rise in diamonds can be divided into two categories, one is a substantial increase in diamonds of more than 3 carats, and the other is a steady increase in the price of one-carat diamond jewelry. As the price of diamonds above 3 carats soared, the price of 1 carat diamonds rose.

Collection tips In the price rise of jadeite, how to buy the collection quickly and accurately? Industry experts said that the collection of jade is not as expensive as possible, even if there are common varieties and junk varieties inside, but also have to face the problem of how much space for appreciation and difficult to realize.

When selecting jadeite, it is necessary to focus on those species that have a large appreciation space and are relatively top-notch, distinctive, and less replicable in the same price range. Although some products can now be purchased in a few thousand dollars, the future will certainly become increasingly rare. When judging jade, look at the color. The darker, more saturated, more uniform, and brighter the better. At the same time look at the cut, the stronger the better the fire, but also see the inclusions and cracks, the size of the weight and so on.

As for the trend of diamonds, Ma Guobin, an appreciator of China Jewelry Import and Export Company, believes that in 2012, the properties of large diamonds ranging from 3 to 5 carats will be strengthened as investment products, “the space for price increase is the largest”. 1 carat diamond, as consumer goods for own use, prices will rise steadily. In the diamond market with 30 points to 50 points, the price will be flat.
