<p>[QUOTE="hunt2, post: 9811916, member: 85118"]oke i understand. But there are different opinions about which jades are real hongshan and which jades are new. In the fact that real ancient jade has weathered and will always be a little rough. The smooth ones could also been removed from their calcification and roughnes. Because alot of people prefer the smooth ones. And even christies cleanes all their jades from the hongshan. The center drill hole in my pig dragon is as crooked as can be and drilled from two sides like the ancients did. Sadly judging something from a photograph is almost impossible. It would humor me if you took a look at the youtube video of prof david anderson or is he a crook? Anyway nice to hear it is at least nephrite jade. And i am not dissapointed at all and value your opinion, because you seem to know alot about every post i did.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
