The Chinese History of the Jade Coin
The Jade Bi - 老历史玉币
The Chinese history of the Jade Coin is very old .
It was an object known as the Jade Bi.
The original function and significance of the ‘Bi’ is unknown.
As long as 5000 years ago it was the symbol of wealth and moral quality
and it was believed to accompany the body to the kingdom of heaven.
It was a sort of medal to be handed over to the victor in case of defeat.
It was used in worship and ceremony and it was a precious taken to be worn
to protect and balance the living energy and to be given as a precious gift.
In our time, this ancient object is still common in the East.
The jade coins are mostly appreciated in China, as a precious amulet
to be wear through life for protection and prosperity.

Jadeite Jade Quality Factors - 翡翠色
The price for fine-quality jadeite has risen dramatically along with China's economic rise. The demand from those who can newly afford it has significantly outpaced the supply of this rare material.
Jadeite's three most important qualities, in order of their impact on its market value, are color, transparency, and texture.
Color
Color is jadeite's most important value factor. Because consumers traditionally associate jadeite with the color green, it surprises some people to learn that it comes in other colors as well—lavender, red, orange, yellow, brown, white, black, and gray. All of these colors can be attractive.
Transparency
Jadeite's transparency ranges from completely opaque to semitransparent. The best jadeite is semitransparent, meaning the text you can read through it would be slightly blurred. Because light penetrates below the surface, semitransparent jadeite has an alluring brilliance.
Texture
Jadeite has a smooth, even texture that makes people want to touch and hold it. Jadeite's texture can be fine, medium, or coarse, depending on variations in crystal size and hardness. These texture categories are sometimes called, respectively, old mine, relatively old mine, and new mine.
Cut
China is the world's main polishing center for jadeite. Some jadeite from Myanmar is fashioned near its source, in cutting workshops near the open jade markets of Hpakan, Lonkin, Mogaung, and Mandalay. Many cutters there still polish jadeite the ancient way, using a hollow bamboo lathe treated with sand and water.
Size and Weight
Jadeite size is commonly expressed in millimeters. The value of cabochons, beads, and bangle bracelets rises with an increase in size, all other quality factors being equal. With top-quality imperial jadeite, slight differences in size can make large differences in value.
