Jade is traditionally associated with the color green, and in many cases, if a piece of jade carries even a hint of green, its value can significantly increase. This makes green jade highly sought after in the market.
However, the term "jade" itself comes from the fact that jadeite has a wide range of colors. Unlike the more commonly known green jade, other colors such as yellow or red are less understood by the general public, which keeps their prices more accessible. But this also means they have greater potential for appreciation over time. In fact, high-quality yellow or red jade bracelets are quite rare and highly valuable when found.
Twilight jade, also known as "yellow scorpion" and "red scorpion," is divided into two main types. Among them, the yellow variety—especially those with a rich "chicken fat yellow" tone—is considered the most desirable.
When choosing a yellow jade bracelet, several factors play a key role in determining its price:
1. **Type**: Yellow scorpion jade is known for its unique characteristics. The best quality, like ice-clear jade with a strong yellow hue, is extremely rare. Most yellow jade tends to be less vibrant or lacks depth in color.
2. **Color**: The most prized shade is "chicken yellow"—a bright, warm tone that adds significant value. However, natural yellow jade often has inconsistent color, either being too dark or too pale due to lack of artificial enhancement.
3. **Color Distribution**: Some yellow jade bracelets only have a thin yellow band around the edge, rather than being fully yellow throughout. True "ice-yellow" jade should have even color distribution, from the inside out. Even if the bracelet is broken, the core should still show a consistent yellow tone. Finding a fully colored, high-quality ice-yellow bracelet is extremely difficult and rare.
As for the red dragonfly jade bracelet, it's even rarer to find one with excellent color and clarity. A good red dragonfly bracelet should have a fine red tone and a smooth, well-structured base. These standards are similar to those of yellow jade, but the rarity of the red variety makes it even more valuable.
Whether you're looking for yellow or red jade, understanding these factors can help you make a more informed choice and appreciate the true value behind each piece.
