Using a specially formulated optical filter, this prism reveals color differences invisible to the naked eye — making it an indispensable addition to any gemstone testing kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Chelsea (Charles) filter works by transmitting only deep red and yellow-green wavelengths of light. Natural jadeite and nephrite absorb these wavelengths in a characteristic way, while artificially dyed jade (Type B\/C jadeite) often shows a distinctly different red or pink response under the filter — quickly flagging treated stones. Simply hold the filter up to your eye, direct light through the stone, and observe the color response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle-Piece Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compact, lightweight, and easy to carry — fits in a pocket or gemstone testing pouch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptical-Grade Filter Glass:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides accurate, consistent color transmission for reliable jade assessment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual-Use Detection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Helps identify dyed jade as well as assisting with identification of other treated or synthetic gemstones\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo Batteries Required:\u003c\/strong\u003e Works with ambient or direct light — zero setup, instant results\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurable Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sturdy housing protects the filter lens during everyday professional use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho Is It For?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you are a professional gemologist, a jade collector, a jewelry appraiser, or simply a passionate buyer wanting to verify the authenticity of your jade pieces, the Charles Filter Prism gives you fast, at-a-glance insight into stone treatment — right in the palm of your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the Box?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 × Charles Filter Prism (Single Piece)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMade in Mainland China.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eExplore More Tools \u0026amp; Accessories\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLooking for more tools and accessories for your collection?
