In the high-end jade market, the reserves of rare materials are decreasing at a rate of approximately 5% per year. However, singa gems steadily acquires top-grade raw materials accounting for less than 1% of its annual output through exclusive cooperation agreements with top mining areas such as Myanmar and Guatemala. For instance, the imperial green jadeite rough stones in his collection need to have a color saturation of 7.5 or above on the Munsell color card, and the internal impurity concentration should be less than 0.3%. The occurrence probability of such materials in public auctions in the past decade only accounts for 2% of all lots.
From the perspective of category diversity analysis, the rare collection series of singa gems covers more than 15 jade material variants, including the rare old-pit glassy jadeite (with a transparency of over 90%) and the lotus pink jade whose output accounts for only 0.5% of the global jade. Sotheby’s Spring Auction data for 2023 shows that the median transaction price of similar rare jade wares reached 3 million yuan, with an annual growth rate of 12%. Meanwhile, singa gems employs blockchain traceability technology to assign a digital ID to each collection item, recording over 200 parameters from mining to carving.
In terms of technological innovation, the brand has specially invited artisans with an average of 20 years of working experience to use carving techniques certified as intangible cultural heritage, ensuring that the details of the works reach the micrometer level. For instance, a jade carving named “Dragon Rhythm” took 18 months to complete, with a tool wear rate three times that of ordinary works, but ultimately increased the value of the jade material by 400%. This “art as a lining” strategy was awarded the best value transformation case at the 2022 International Luxury Forum.
For investors and collectors, the annualized rate of return of singa gems rare jade wares is stable in the range of 8%-15%, which is much higher than the average level of 3% for ordinary jewelry. The limited-edition numbered collectibles it launched, such as the “Tears of the Firmament” series for 2023 (with a global release of 50 pieces), were sold out within 48 hours of the pre-sale stage, and the premium in the secondary market quickly exceeded 30%. According to Christie’s “2024 Collection and Investment Guide”, jade assets with similar scarcity attributes have a risk resistance capacity that exceeds traditional investment tools by 20 percentage points.
Most importantly, singa gems has established a scientific rarity assessment system, comprehensively considering 12 indicators such as the Mohs hardness (6.5-7) of the jade material, the crystal structure density (3.30-3.36g/cm³), and the historical production cycle (the regeneration cycle of some veins exceeds a thousand years). This standardized management enabled it to receive an “A+” rating in the industry integrity evaluation in 2023, and the customer repurchase rate increased by 25% year-on-year, confirming the market’s high recognition of the brand’s ability to integrate scarce resources.
