Fashionable jade jewelry is inseparable from exquisite craftsmanship, and each inlay method is so unique

When talking about fashion, people will think of jade, and when talking about jade, people will think of its styles. Nowadays, most jewelry is inlaid. Whether a piece of jewelry is perfect, in addition to considering its own quality, inlay is definitely a plus point. What are the specific classifications of such an important inlay technique? Next, let’s take a more detailed look at the inlay techniques commonly used by these craftsmen.

In fact, there are many types of inlay techniques, such as claw setting, which is the most practical and fastest method. Because using this method can maximize the optical effect of the gem. Jadeite coverage is very limited, so this style is the most widely used. Four-claw and six-claw settings are both classic. Claw settings can lift up the jade and allow light to shine on the gem from all four sides.

This will make the entire jade appear very transparent, crystal clear and noble. Claw setting can be divided into single setting and group setting. Single setting means a large jadeite, while group setting means that in addition to the main jadeite, there are also some small gravels. There is also a type called bezel setting, which mainly uses metal to surround the jade on all sides. This method is the most stable and most commonly used.

This method is often used for some plain jadeite pieces, because most of these jadeite pieces are relatively large, and if they are set with claws, they will not be so firm. Some of the common plain jade rings on the market now use this kind of edging setting method, so this method is more suitable for the setting of plain and some special-shaped jade. There is also the card setting, the main principle of which is to use the tension of the metal to fix the position of the waist of the jade. This is a very fashionable setting method, so it is full of modern sense and will be loved by young people.

This method can expose more of the jade and fully show its charm. Although this method looks very good, it also has some disadvantages. There are few fixed positions, so its stress points are smaller. If the groove is too large, it will easily cause the jade to loosen and fall off. Therefore, this method has higher technical requirements.

Another type is nail inlay, which is to use tools to hammer a few small nails on the edge of the metal material to fix it on the surface so that no metal can be seen. Because there is no metal wrapping, it can reflect light more fully, making the whole accessory look more brilliant. Therefore, there are many ways to inlay jade jewelry now. Each method has its own advantages and also provides people with a variety of jewelry styles.
