A piece of spring-colored jadeite was sold for more than 5 million!

At the Beijing Poly 2014 Spring Auction

A spring-colored jade ornament named "One Thought" appeared in people's vision

The size is about: 40 x 20 x 15cm, and it was finally sold for 5.52 million yuan.

This work won the gold medal in the 2013 China Arts and Crafts "Hundred Flowers Award" (Putian)

And the gold medal of the "Caiyun Cup Master Award" at the first Yunnan Jade Carving Masters Exhibition

The work is by Yu Fengye, a new jade carving artist born in the 1980s.

Yi Nian is a half-Buddha, half-demon Bodhisattva, which caused controversy among the judges and experts

Because there are many people who carve Buddha, but only Yu Fengye dares to carve Buddha into half Buddha and half demon.

This work uses a large piece of spring-colored jadeite rough stone

Carving out the thousand-armed images of Buddha, demon and Guanyin

The entire work emerges from a giant crystal egg.

Expressing the secret meaning of Zen Buddhism: "One thought makes you a Buddha, one thought makes you a devil"

Yu Feng also said in an interview with reporters

Studying Buddhism is not something that can be done in just one or two years.

Now many of his creative ideas come from Mahayana Buddhism.

Including residual load as carrier

He created a series of works such as "了" that explain the laws of birth, aging, illness and death of all things in the world.

He is expressing his thoughts on life and society.

Yu Feng also said that the creation of the "Remaining Buddha" series has just begun.

His next step is to carve a deserted city with purple lotus flowers rising from it and a broken Buddha with a lotus in his heart.

He felt that after the body, mind and spirit were connected

When doing a series of works, there will be no repetition and no obstacles.

Instead, it is to achieve the integration of inheritance and innovation through works.

When people's favorite purple and green appear on a piece of jade at the same time

This will undoubtedly greatly increase the value of jadeite.

This kind of jade is called "Spring Color" jade

Spring refers to purple, while color symbolizes pure green.

In jadeite, "Spring Color" is a typical combination of jadeite colors.

The reason why jade appears purple is very complicated

This is because the types and contents of transition metal ions contained in jade are different.

The dominant chromogenic ions appear in different colors

The main coloring elements of spring-colored jadeite are manganese, iron, titanium and chromium.

A piece of jadeite raw stone can produce a spring-colored jadeite bracelet

And the color is rich and evenly distributed.

The price of this spring-colored bracelet should not be underestimated.

It can be called the supreme treasure.

It is absolutely rare in the market

The quality of spring-colored jade is generally not very good.

Almost no ice grade

Even if there are, they are very few

Therefore, its overall price is slightly lower than that of full green jadeite.

However, whether the water is good or bad

The dual color alone makes it a rare item.

The quality and total amount of purple and green in Chundaicai jadeite

There is also the distribution of colors and the proportion of color matching

It has a very important impact on the value of spring-colored jadeite.

Different element contents will result in different color changes

Secondly, its water content is very wide.

It is difficult to determine the specific price of some spring-colored jadeite just by looking at the pictures

The emerald mines are gradually drying up

High-quality spring-colored jadeite is extremely rare

In the past two years, the value of good spring-colored jadeite has continued to soar

Judging from the current trend

Investing in or collecting Chundaicai jade is also a good choice

For investors and collectors

How to appreciate a good jade work is crucial

Appreciating Spring Color Jadeite, As Long as the Color Matches Look Good

Free of spots, blemishes and impurities

Light colors are generally no problem

The tasting method of all jade is the same

Jade has both smooth and carved surfaces.

The finished product of jadeite has relatively high requirements on raw materials

The surface of the jadeite is not modified at all

The raw materials must be free of cracks and defects

The ratio and thickness of cutting must be just right

Only the finished jadeite can be called a work of art.

When carving jadeite, it’s all about the craftsmanship

Fine craftsmanship, smooth lines, and clever use of the characteristics of jade

This is a skill that every jade carver must possess.

It is also the most basic requirement for a good jade carving.
