Taboos for women wearing jade bracelets

It is said that jade can protect its owner and nourish people, so many people will buy themselves a piece of jade to wear on their bodies. Some people may choose to wear a jade pendant, and some people may choose to wear a jade bracelet. In fact, there are many requirements for wearing jade well. You must not wear jade given by others, because the jade given by others may bring disaster to you. So what are the taboos for women wearing jade bracelets?

1. Wearing

Jade is usually very tough. But some people misunderstand this characteristic as being resistant to falling. However, few people know that jade bracelets also need careful maintenance to remain forever beautiful and moist. When wearing a jade bracelet, avoid dropping it from a height or hitting it against hard objects, especially if it has small cracks. Otherwise it is very easy to break or be damaged. It is best to put it on or take it off in a safe place with a sofa, carpet, etc.

After being carved, jade bracelets are usually waxed to enhance their brightness. Therefore, the maintenance of jade bracelets should not let them come into contact with acids, alkalis and organic solvents. Even for the maintenance of unwaxed jade bracelets, since they are a collection of multiple minerals, long-term contact with acids and alkalis should be avoided. These chemical reagents will corrode the surface of the jade bracelet.

In addition to being immune to sweat and oil, jade is also very sensitive to oil smoke and grease. Therefore, if it is a high-end variety that is meant to preserve its value, it is not advisable to wear it into the kitchen while cooking. Jade is also not suitable for being close to high temperatures and fireworks, and must not be exposed to the sun. If this continues for a long time, it will lose its luster and become less bright. Jade should also not come into contact with strong acid solutions, such as sulfuric acid (acidic acid), nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, etc. These chemicals will destroy the particle structure and color. If you fly from the hot tropical region to the cold north by plane, the jade you wear will be more or less affected by thermal expansion and contraction. The same principle applies when flying from the cold north to the tropics. Too great a temperature difference and pressure can cause changes in the particle structure (such as microcracks), but these are difficult to detect with the naked eye. Therefore, if you encounter this kind of hot and cold situation, you should strengthen the maintenance of the jade bracelet.

At present, there are some B-grade jadeite on the market, which are products soaked in sulfuric acid and injected with glue. They are afraid of high temperatures, so do not wear B-grade jade bracelets when cooking or working in high-temperature places. Especially B-grade jadeite bracelets, high temperatures can easily cause the filling (glue) in the jadeite to age and deteriorate, and it can also cause the rust stains that have been treated with acid to re-oxidize. In addition, do not keep the jade bracelet in a box for a long time, as the jade bracelet will lose water and become dry over time. When wearing and collecting jade bracelets, avoid direct contact with other gemstones or diamond jewelry. Because of their different hardness, they are easily damaged when they come into contact and collide with each other.

2. Storage

The storage device for jade should be paved with natural and fiber (cotton, silk), and placed separately to avoid collision with each other. The storage environment, temperature and humidity should be kept stable. Do not wear jewelry during exercise, because collision, impact and friction will damage any jewelry including jade. You should be more careful when swimming or doing other water sports. The ammonia and other chemicals and pollutants in the water have a strong corrosive effect on jewelry such as jade. Jade and other gemstones should be prevented from coming into contact with natural water.

In addition, if you have enough time, you might as well wipe the jade bracelet frequently with a soft cloth, which can keep your jade bracelet beautiful for a long time.

3. Cleaning

The maintenance of jade bracelets is a symbol of elegance and holiness. If they are exposed to oil for a long time, the oil will stick to the surface of the jade bracelet and affect its gorgeous appearance. In severe cases, the grease and dirt will seep into the interior along the cracks of the jade bracelet, which is very unsightly. Therefore, when wearing a jade bracelet, be careful to keep it clean. Usually it needs to be cleaned once every half a month.

In short, the maintenance of jade bracelets requires your careful care and frequent wiping with a soft cloth. They usually need to be packed individually. Following the maintenance methods of jade bracelets, your jade bracelets will become more and more beautiful and more and more transparent.
