Although the jade has only a thin layer of yellow mist, the carving is very delicate and charming.

There are some jade materials, although their water quality is very average and their shapes are irregular, but if you can carefully explore and find their highlights, and ingeniously carve these highlights into beautiful colors, you may unexpectedly create good works!

Today I will share with you the carving process of a very common Damakan yellow skin material. Do you think this carving method increases the value of jadeite?

A very ordinary piece of Damakan yellow skin material, with average water quality and irregular shape. The only bright spot is a thin layer of yellow fog! The jade carving master also composes the picture based on the yellow fog layer!

Jade has an irregular shape. If you force yourself to make a neat pendant, the pendant will become very small, so cleverly carving according to the shape is the correct composition idea for this jade!

The jade carving master repaired the appearance of the jadeite according to the composition idea, and designed the jadeite carving subject as the theme of enlightenment according to the thickness distribution of the yellow fog layer on the jadeite: the composition transformed the yellow fog layer into rolling waves, which is very majestic, and between the wind and waves, the monk put his hands together in enlightenment, which is very calm. The combination of movement and stillness makes the picture very artistic!

The jade carving master uses shallow carving to carve the pattern, skillfully separating the yellow and white jade, allowing the two colors to blend naturally, giving people a feeling of waves rising in the wind when looking at it! The enlightened person in the middle part is cleverly carved with a calm and composed look, which is very clever!

The full bright polishing makes the jadeite's effect amazing. The surface of the pendant has a light icy and sticky feeling. After the jade mist layer melts, it becomes more lively and charming, making the theme of enlightenment more artistic!

The back is engraved with scriptures from the Tao Te Ching: The highest good is like water. Water benefits all things without contention. It stays in places that people hate, and so is close to the Tao. It occupies a good place, has a deep heart, is kind to others, speaks truthfully, is good at governing, is capable at doing things, and acts at the right time. Only because it does not contend, there is no blame.

Do you think this piece of Damakan jade carving is exquisite?
