Jade Testing & Value Estimation Services & Fees

Mason-Kay has been engaged in the jadeite jade business since 1976. We offer full jadeite testing services to the trade, as well as value estimation services for appraisals to retailers and appraisers. In addition to the standard gemological tests (RI, SG, Optical spectroscopy) Mason-Kay is equipped with infrared spectroscopy to test for impregnation ('B' jade).

We do not test or evaluate statuary, figurines or jade rough.
