Taiwan's Jade Secrets📿 - HOW TO IDENTIFY REAL JADE - private tour of Jade wholesaler's HUGE workshop

We got a special invite to visit a famous Jade workshop on Taiwan's east coast near Hualien. By blind luck, we ran into Mr. Hui Wen Su who happened to be from a family with a long history in the Jade trade. His shop attracts Jade tour groups from Japan and investors from across Taiwan. Take a look, he'll show you several simple techniques that you can use to determine if Jade is genuine or fake, as well as showing you had to detect other fake gemstones using decades old methods. If you are interested in arranging a visit to Mr. Su's shop (pronounced SOO) you can reach him from within Taiwan dial 0921-975709, from USA 011-866-921-975709. Mr. Su has also given over 1,000 private tours of Taroko Gorge. So if you've seen my other video, and are interested in an extremely knowledgeable and personable guide who speaks English, he's your man!

if I want to find him how can I find his place? I'm planning to visit hualien next month it would be grateful if I can go and buy some piece of jade

Your camera was moving so fast that it was a blur of a very crowded store. Wish you would had scanned slower. The master was very informative.

Great salesman. Doesn't matter if the jade is real or fake. He makes sure everyone is having a fun.

Intrigued by this video therefore I tested my new piece of jade bought from a famous jeweller in Hong Kong. The burning hair around the jade worked....but hair didn’t burn on a porcelain spoon, a glass cup, and a porcelain bowl either, so I’m guessing this isn’t a good way to determine jade authenticity

Wow thank you, I have a few pieces my dad had from overseas, he was a Longshoreman and traveled to other Countries. I'm sure the Jade he left is real but I've always been curious just to check it. This is science! Lol the Jade is so cool it's literally bending the flame 😎

I love thrifting and I was in a small town thrifting and found a GORGEOUS intricately designed gold ring with a jade stone. I left to continue my shopping but I couldnt get the ring out out my head. I went back and bought it. It's a real gold ring but the for the life of me I didnt know if the stone was real jade. I'm going to do the hair test!

Does the owner of this shop have a website to sell his products, I find the genuine Jade so beautiful

[kathythomas]

Loved this! Learned so much. I tried the hair test on my bracelet and the hair didn't burn! Thank you!

Dude you're making me dizzy with how fast you whip the camera around😵

[AdornmentsU]

Thank you so much, for sharing this jewel of a Grandfather of Jade cutting ~ Love how he describes the "Chi", ~Wonderful

[maridelquine]

I love watching jades mostly from Taiwan, I love Taiwan

[noonlightsonata]

I wish the camera wasn’t shaking so much or the light was adjusted properly. It’s hard to see but very informative

[ronaldharris]

I like that flame test it will definitely let you know if it's a polymer plastic or covered in resin

[deepthi]

CHI = Pranic energy. I love to find that Qigong jade. I feel my Chi and feel it connect to the energies of various, stones and crystals. This why i collect these mineral beings. They help you evolve beyond the thinking mind and connect to your own inner presence.

[cheryl-annegoh]

That's a beautiful jade pendant that you got for your son.

[michaelguilas]

Which one is fake?
a)The one that you can see your finger through? b) The one that you don’t see your finger?
c)or the one that you see on your finger after it went through?
Is it warm or cold?

[divinusluciferase]

Does he have an online shop for those of us who aren't planning to visit Taiwan anytime soon? thanks.

[ScottLaColle]

Finally. The easiest way to spot a real jade

[kennethoros]

When I sold jewelry out of high school. You would teach a customer the different quality in diamonds, then after that you will show the products, and then they can see why there a different in cost, same technique here.
