Subject:how to recognize dyed jade?
Posted By: patti Mon, Apr 04, 2011 IP: 76.219.230.115 I've seen a number of white jade rings Ebay with red veins and was wondering if there's any way to tell if the red is a dye. For that fact, for any color, is there a way to determine if a jade piece has been dyed?

Posted By: Ernest Wilhelm Mon, Apr 04, 2011 One of the easier ways is to look through the carving,(Flashlight)and see if there are "spider webs" That's always a good indication that the item has been dipped in dye stuff.
