Chalcedony belongs to "jade" but does not belong to "jade". Hyundai divides "jade" into two categories: jadeite and nephrite. Jadeite is jadeite, and jadeite mainly refers to Xinjiang jadeite (ie Hetian jade). The concept of "Jade" is much larger than "Jade". Hetian jade, jade, crystal, amber, agate, coral, etc. are all jade, and chalcedony is one of jade. Chalcedony is also often used as a gemstone, mainly used as a material for arts and crafts.

The composition of chalcedony and jade is also very different, which is the biggest difference between them. In fact, the main mineral component of chalcedony is cryptocrystalline quartz, which has different shapes and sizes. The gloss is mostly glass or waxy, translucent or slightly transparent, and agate is the same mineral. Personally think that chalcedony is a high quality agate, chalcedony is just a saying that business owners are trying to confuse customers. At present, there is a saying that the ice seed chalcedony that appears on the market is borrowed from the "ice type" jade, which is a gimmick of commercial speculation. The chalcedony products are bright, cryptocrystalline structure, the texture is extremely fine and uniform, the naked eye does not see particles, because the individual unscrupulous commercial green chalcedony impersonates green jade, so you need to pay attention when purchasing.

Well, the above introduces the difference between jade and chalcedony. In the future, everyone can distinguish jade and chalcedony.
