Walking into the jade market on the Myanmar border, you may see that it is different from the market sales. There are no tall shops, no window displays, only messy stalls. Even so, it cannot stop the hot raw stone trade. One time, a friend asked me to buy him a gambling stone, so he chose the stone shown below. He was so excited when he bought it that he even took a few photos. This piece of material is not very eye-catching. People who see it complain that it is waste, because it can be regarded as the ugliest raw stone in this price range, but perhaps this is its characteristic. My friend didn't listen to other people's opinions and thought it must be a good material, so he bought it and sent it to a craftsman to peel it. When it is illuminated by light, it looks like a light bulb, very bright, the base is clean and has no cracks, and the water quality is so good. After peeling the raw stone, you can see such good texture. So, we should not judge a person by his appearance, and the same goes for stones. The master suggested that materials like this would be best used to make small ornaments. The subject matter was determined by the master, because my friend told him at the time that the master would be given full control over the raw stone to design freely, as long as the subject matter chosen for the material was suitable for carving. After a month, the finished product finally surfaced. The master made a "Lotus in Buddhism" and used clever carving techniques to make the whole piece of material tasteful. It looks even more beautiful under natural light, and this material can be said to be the most worthwhile one to find. When you choose a piece of rough stone and people complain about its flaws, don't care what they say, just make your own decision, because what most people say is not right. Before the raw stone is cut, it is impossible to determine the quality of the jade with 100% certainty. As the saying goes: Even a god cannot tell the quality of a piece of jade. That's what I mean.
