The master's work was sold for nearly 10 million yuan. What is so good about Jieyang jade carvings?

As the "craft" in "type, water, color, and craftsmanship", carving craftsmanship is the most important factor in the value evaluation of jade, in addition to the quality of its own material. In particular, the "Jieyang craftsmanship" famous for its "strangeness, ingenuity, precision and uniqueness " is highly recognized and sought after by collectors, just like the work of Master Zhang Bingguang that just shined at the Beijing Poly 2021 Spring Auction and was sold for nearly 10 million .

At present, the domestic jade market is mainly concentrated in Tengchong and Ruili in Yunnan, and Guangzhou, Jieyang, Pingzhou, Sihui and other places in Guangdong. Among so many jade markets, why can "Jieyang craftsmanship" stand out? What is so good about it?

Jieyang University vs Tengchong University

When it comes to the import and processing of jade, Tengchong has the longest history. However, from the perspective of carving technology, the craftsmanship of Tengchong jade carving is lacking, the skills are not advanced enough, and the themes are also not novel.

△ Jade Guanyin in Tengchong Market

Taking the most classic and traditional Jade Guanyin as an example, although the Jade Guanyin in Tengchong market has good materials, the carving is not full and smooth enough, the lotus seat is not detailed and realistic enough, the opening is not natural enough, the overall shape is not thick and dignified enough, it is slightly thin, and the proportions are not coordinated enough.

△ Jade Guanyin in Jieyang Market

The jade Guanyin in the Jieyang market is vivid, with exquisite craftsmanship, profound skills, expressive eyes, bright polish, clearly visible hair, full appearance, and voluptuous body. The transparency, color and thickness of jade are in harmonious proportions and complement each other.
