Showing the style of a craftsman, the irregular jadeite jade carver actually designed it like this...

There is a kind of jadeite rough stone that will make you feel very embarrassed when you get it. That is the jadeite rough stone with irregular shape, especially the high-quality rough stone. You have no idea where to start if you don't trim it, but you are reluctant to do so. After all, it is a pity to cut off any high-quality material.

To preserve the integrity of the original stone and at the same time make the design theme refreshing, it depends on the skills of the jade carver. Today I will show you how a real jade carving master handles it.

Let’s take a look at this piece of material. It’s a good quality, full-color material. Everything is good, except that the shape of the material is a bit torturous.

When you shine the light on it, you can see that there are not even any cracks in the meat. It is green and very tempting.

Most sculptors would choose to remove those uneven edges and corners, right? But the material itself is not big, and if you cut off this and that, its value will be greatly reduced. It hurts just thinking about it.

Fortunately, it met the jade carving master Zhang Bingguang.

Zhang Bingguang is a Chinese master of arts and crafts and a Chinese master of jade carving. Guangdong Provincial Master of Arts and Crafts, Senior Arts and Crafts Artist, National First-Class/Senior Technician/National Government Special Allowance Expert, and Municipal Inheritor of the National Intangible Cultural Heritage "Yangmei Jade Carving".

Looking at the final carving effect, we have to admire: a master is a master. The work designed and carved in this way not only retains the greatest integrity of the original stone, but also fits the characteristics of the original stone.
