The perfect combination of jade and carving culture!

The perfect combination of jade and carving culture!

Today, I will share with you a piece of jadeite from the Damakan mine. The skin is very thin, the sand grains are compact, and have a yellowish haze. You can tell with the naked eye that this is a high-quality material. It is very oily and basically a completely clear material, so I won't introduce it in detail. Now, let's appreciate the transformation process from rough stone to finished product:

The flesh is delicate, the color is bright under the light, and the water quality is good. I am more interested in traditional culture because these cultural symbols are embedded in my bones. The engraver helped me design an antique old handle piece, and I was very satisfied after seeing the design drawings. The next step is carving. Let’s see what this ordinary “stone” will transform into?

After a period of waiting, the finished product was finally completed, with a bit of tri-color flavor. This kind of skin-retaining carving has its own unique characteristics. It looks simple and elegant. Combined with ancient patterns and totems, it cleverly combines classical culture with the beauty of fine jade, radiating a different brilliance and showing a new value and charm.

I have to say that the carving master's skills are superb! It makes full use of the characteristics of the original jade, embodies the ancient Chinese style, and reflects the respect and inheritance of traditional ancient culture. The colorful carving technique skillfully utilizes the important features of jade carving technology and can be widely used. The rich colors and quality of jadeite provide a good material basis for the skillful use of carving. It also makes jade products exquisite, vivid and lifelike, giving people a vivid and lifelike feeling. I believe that even friends who have no appreciation for art will be amazed by it!

The stone in the picture below is a half-mountain and half-water stone from the Damakan field. The material was peeled when it was bought back. In fact, if it is fully bright, there is no need to introduce too much. It is a typical yellow and green, full of oiliness. Now let's appreciate the transformation process from raw stone to finished product.

It has bright color under the light, delicate and smooth texture, and good water quality. The only regret is that the emerald green is not enough, and there are several tiny cracks upon closer inspection. In fact, natural stone cannot be perfect, there are bound to be some flaws. Now is the time to test the carving master, who can use or avoid them by skillful carving. The carving requires exquisite workmanship both as a whole and in detail.

This year, there are fewer and fewer raw stones from Damakan, especially the high-quality yellow green ones. The price has increased several times compared with previous years. It can be said that friends who had planned to collect them before basically find it difficult to find good ones now. My friend prefers traditional things, so I designed a more retro theme, and the green color is really the finishing touch. As the saying goes, jade cannot be made into a useful object without being carved. Jade carving gives the original stone a whole new value and charm.

The characteristics of the original stone are fully utilized to show the ancient Chinese style vividly, and it also shows the respect and inheritance of traditional ancient culture. The finished product is exquisite. During the appreciation process, it seems as if you can smell the taste of time.
