What is the difference between Hetian Baiyu, Qinghai Baiyu and Russian white jade?
Hetian Baiyu, Qinghai Baiyu, and Russian white jade are both nephrite varieties. Hetian jade is famous all over the world. Qinghai jade and Russian jade have only appeared in recent decades. The three have similarities and at the same time There are differences. It is often easy to confuse them when buying them on the market. Because the mineral composition and the geological effects of their origin and composition are not the same, and they are the same as nephrite, the difference between the three is still quite large. The characteristics of Qinghai white jade are: its hardness and specific gravity are similar to that of Hetian Baiyu, but the transparency is very high. Some white jade has “ribs†inside, and the ribs are white and transparent. In general, the luster of Qinghai white jade is not very delicate, and you can feel very thick and sturdy when playing. Under the light, Qinghai white jade is also prone to discoloration. The characteristics of Russian white jade are: the color is particularly white, and even gives people the feeling of being too white and "dead white". White is not a feature. In addition, in the process of carving, Russian white jade is easy to collapse, showing that its structure is not fine enough.

In general, Russia is expected to be stronger than Qinghai, and second only to Hetian jade. Compared with Qinghai, Russia's material is not hard, the toughness is not enough, and the skin color is not enough. This is its shortcoming.
