    I was on a Christmas party since "december 21st 2024" but i was on a rock field with many rock then i cant belive le luck 😮😮😮 i just found a jade that is colored with a weord green color but when it gets older i hope it turns into normal green but i found another jade next to my car buried in the soil, i was panicking in luck that i dig the soil with my nails so hard that it the soil is too hard but the 2nd jade popped with dirt that i wiped the dirt with my hands but my father wiped the soil with clean wipes and thats how i got my 2 jadeites "is my comment very long?"

      @@augiegray2120 Correct! Over 4,000 people are Google-searching “Jade Vs Jadeite” every month, and in my opinion, many of the search results are misleading. This video is intended to reach those users and help explain that “jade” is simply a trade term, and that nephrite jade and jadeite jade are the gemstones commonly called “jade.” :)

    Ping An Kou is the standard term for this form in contemporary Chinese usage, and is one of the common forms that jadeite pendants are carved into, alongside the Wu Shi Pai (mostly or entirely uncarved block), the laughing Buddha, the Guan Yin, the leaf, the bean. The Ping An Kou was the common name for this form since the Late Ming Dynasty and besides the Bi disc, the alternative hypothesis for its origin is that it's like a traditional coin.

    I disagree with the comments about orange peeling. That usually is because the stone is either lower quality or the technique needs to be adjusted. I have had orange peeling only on the 800 and higher grit. So I have to use different pressure for each grit. Sometimes the crystal structure is just not that great for polishing, even with quality jade.

    question= does WA.ST have both Jadeite and Nephrite Jade? I LOOKED INTO IT BTW AND DISCOVERED THAT IT IS KNOWN THAT WA.ST DOES HAVE BOTH. Reason I am thinking that it is, is that my understanding of in my thinking of the geological location as well as the numerous MTN Ranges, why would it not I said to myself- WA. ST is just so unique. Also due to numerous volcanic eruptions over the years-millenniums' and that the volcanic flows would cover up so much of ___??? and just how much over burden does one have to dig??? So, what would be pushed up over the years- Serpentine/Genice, Jades of both types maybe due to the SUPER-DUPER-HEAT CREATED. JUST MY MIND AND WALLA IT'S BEEN NOTED.

One thing that would be lovely, if you could make a video about southern red or nanhong agate? I am totally in love with it but know nothing about the market situation, is it faked and altered like jadeite/nephrite. Where are the most secure places to buy nanhong? And, as always, how trustworthy is etsy? Sorry, loads of questions, but would love it if you could give some info. THX
