The prices of pieces of jade really depend on their quality. The color, intensity of that color, translucency, depth and if there are any flaws in the piece really affect its price. A buyer would look at your pieces and decide if they are a cutting piece or a carving piece. Many times it is a gamble to cut into a piece of jade since there is a high chance of cracks throughout it, which makes most of it unusable.

In the next few months I will be adding a forum to this site. You could add pictures of the pieces there to get some comments on it but the only real way to determine how much a piece is worth is by looking at it in person.

Pieces really range in price. I have seen 20 pounders going for virtually nothing to thousands of dollars polished up. Bubble jade is a little rarer and its prices also vary.

I am glad that you liked the page, I worked hard on it.

I personally only have a dremmel to work on jade so I do not have to tools available to cut and cab. That is one of my future goals, I am saving up for an All In Wonder by Inland so I can start working on some pieces I have set aside.

Through making this site I have networked with quite a few jade hounds and might be able to send out the word for you if you are interested.

I do have a question. I have a small piece of jade, from jade cove, that I would like cut and made into 4 mountable stones. Do you have a suggestion who that might be. I am in Rancho Cucamonga and cannot travel far. Don’t want a jeweler, more a rock hound. Thanks for your help
