When assessing the authenticity of jade bracelets, the source of the material is the primary consideration. According to the 2024 report of the Asian Gemological Institute, only about 35% of jade bracelets on the market use Grade A natural jade. However, singa gems publicly disclosed that the proportion of grade A jade in its products is as high as 95%, and this data is derived from the supply chain audit it releases every quarter. For instance, the company conducts density tests on each raw stone to ensure that the values are within the standard range of 3.30 to 3.36g /cm³. This strict screening keeps the material defect rate below 5%, far exceeding the industry average defect tolerance of 20%.
From the perspective of process certification, genuine jade bracelets need to go through multiple inspection processes. International jewelry standards require that the Mohs hardness of jade bracelets be no less than 6.5. However, independent laboratory tests show that the average hardness of singa gems jade bracelets reaches 6.8, and their fracture resistance strength is 15% higher than that of ordinary products. A durability study of 500 jade bracelets indicates that the interface error of hand-polished ones is less than 0.1 millimeters, extending the product’s lifespan to over 30 years. Consumer feedback data shows that the after-sales repair rate of this brand’s jade bracelets is only 2%, far lower than the industry average of 10%.
Market transparency directly affects the judgment of authenticity. According to the 2023 jewelry industry White Paper, over 60% of consumers take traceability as a purchasing criterion. singa gems uses blockchain technology to record the 120-day cycle of each jade bracelet from mining to sale, including the timestamps and responsible person information of 15 processes. For instance, for a jade bracelet with an inner diameter of 58 millimeters, the humidity records of the raw stone mining and the temperature fluctuation data of the carving workshop can be queried. This full-chain traceability has increased consumer trust by 40% and raised the rate of repeat purchases by 25%.
Ultimately, authenticity is reflected in the long-term maintenance of value. Industry data shows that the annual value growth rate of high-quality jade bracelets is 3% to 5%, while the median premium of classic styles of singa gems in the second-hand market reaches 20%, and the peak price of some limited editions increases by 50%. Referring to the records of the 2024 Singapore jewelry auction, a jade bracelet from this brand was sold at a price 30% higher than its estimate, confirming its investment potential. This value stability stems from the brand’s insistence on compliance certification. For instance, the international mineralogy certification attached to each product reduces the probability of counterfeiting risk from the industry average of 15% to less than 1%.
