Appreciate the transformation of jadeite rough stone

A perfect jade carving requires the sculptor to spend a lot of effort and careful carving to maximize its artistic value. It is not something that can be produced casually.

It can be seen that this piece of material has many stains and cracks on the edges. The sculptor designed the composition of a seated Bodhisattva based on the shape and size of the material.

After the composition is designed, the carving stage begins. Carving figures requires very high skills from the sculptor. The shape of the entire figure, the coordination of movements, and the symmetry of proportions are all very important. The general outline of the work has already appeared, but the most important part of carving the face has not yet begun. Opening the face is an important step in determining whether the work has charm.

After the sculptor's careful carving, the work has been mostly completed, but it still needs to go through several steps such as rough trimming and fine trimming to present the best effect.

The carving is completed. The figure is dressed in flowing clothes and sits in a solemn posture, with his head raised and eyes lowered. His face has a kind look but a hint of sadness. It seems to be listening to the sufferings of the world.

The jade carving industry is very boring and arduous. There are only a few people who can persevere to the end after years of apprenticeship and be able to carve exquisite works, and even fewer who can become masters.
