Is real jade translucent?
1 Answer

No, not all real jade is translucent, so this is not a good test to determine if jade is real or not. That being said, some jade is transparent but most of it is a combination of opaque with some translucent spots. Find a collection of expertly vetted jade from some of the world’s top reputable boutiques on 1stDibs.
