Difference and identification between jadeite and Tianhe stone

In addition, Tianhe stone is much lighter than jade, and its color is blue, which is easy to identify.

In terms of density, the relative density of Tianhe stone is relatively small, which is 65. The relative density of jadeite is 3-36, which shows that the relative density of Tianhe stone is lower than that of jadeite, so its weight is much lighter than that of jadeite. Players can start from this point when distinguishing.

Identification: ① color: the color source and color root of jadeite are uneven, while the color of green agate is uniform without obvious color source and color root; ② Density: The relative density of agate is much smaller than that of jadeite, so when you weigh it in your hand, you can clearly feel that green agate is lighter than jadeite.

Natural green agate is mostly impure green, dark green and brownish green. The brightly colored green agate is mostly the product of artificial dyeing or the wrong name of chrysoprase. Tianhe stone is only similar to jade in color, so it is easier to identify the finished product. 3, water foam, the appearance is similar to ice jade, and the weight is lighter than jade.

There are too many differences. Composition, density, color, luster. Wait a minute. It's all different.

Gems similar to Tianhe stone mainly include chalcedony, beryl, turquoise, jadeite, dyed marble, chrysocolla, synthetic spinel, glass, plastic and so on. It can be distinguished according to its appearance characteristics, refractive index, specific gravity and internal contents.
