2016 Gaogu Jade Auction Prices

What is Gaogu Jade? Gaogu jade generally refers to jade from the Warring States and before the Han Dynasty. Jade before the Ming Dynasty is called ancient jade, and jade before the Han Dynasty is called Gaogu jade. High-tech jade is mainly Hetian jade, which has always been selected from thousands of miles. Most of the remaining jade is in the hands of museums and a few collectors. In recent years, ancient jades have become the pursuit of collectors with certain abilities. The rich cultural connotations contained in ancient jades have become the motivation for collectors to frequently buy them. Due to its long history, rich cultural connotation, and high historical research value, Gaogu jade is highly sought after by collectors at home and abroad. It is considered by collectors to be the top luxury goods among oriental art. The materials of high ancient jade are rigorous. Some of the materials of high ancient jade (before the Han Dynasty) are from local jade, and some are from Hetian jade in Xinjiang. Most of them are from seed materials in river beds or mountain water materials. These two kinds of jade materials have formed jade skin and clear color due to the long time of stripping of mineral deposits under different external environments. However, the ancient people who made jade thought that the skin and qin were all impurities and removed them to retain only the essence of the jade. (Some small animals in the Shang Dynasty retained jade skin and color.) Most ancient jades have a qin color. Different jade quality, different regions, different soil environment, different burial time and other factors cause different jade colors. Sometimes there are several kinds of colors on a jade article. Distinguishing the various colors of ancient jade can determine the authenticity of ancient jade. We now see that the deep color of real ancient jade is the result of its completion. Analysis of the Qin Color of Ancient Jade There are many kinds of Qin color of ancient jade, including red Qin, cinnabar Qin, soil Qin, water Qin, metal Qin, mercury Qin and so on. The colors presented are mainly red, yellow, black, white, green, purple, blue and transitional colors. The word "Qinse" is a general concept. In fact, it should be the color change and state characteristics of jade caused by external chemical elements. Color is different from the original color of jade and comes from other pigments from the outside world. The non-interactive state is expressed in the form of relative independence of color, without interconversion with the molecular structure of jade. The interactive state takes the form of mutual transformation between foreign elements and elements within the jade, thus changing the essential structure of the jade. This process often takes a long time.
