How to select and process snowflake cotton jade

1. Look at the distribution of cotton

When choosing snowflake cotton jadeite, you should choose one with high transparency, evenly distributed, staggered, and neither too much nor too little. Only in this way can you see the uniqueness, lightness, elegance and artistic beauty of the snowflake cotton jade, which resembles snow falling all over the sky.

Second, look at the size of the cotton

When choosing snowflake cotton jade, it is best to choose snowflake cotton jade with small cotton spots. Large cotton spots will affect the transparency of the jade and reduce the value of the jade.

3. Look at the amount of cotton

When choosing snowflake cotton jadeite, the amount of cotton should be moderate. Too much cotton will make the overall appearance turbid, while too little will not allow you to feel the artistic conception of snowflakes flying in the sky.

Of course, snowflake cotton of moderate size, even distribution and appropriate quantity can make jade look refreshing and more aesthetically pleasing. But it does not mean that the snowflake cotton will be worthless and ugly if it is too large, unevenly distributed, or in more or less quantity.

If the jadeite snowflakes are larger, with a good base, evenly spaced cotton spots and clear outlines, it can also be considered an interesting art form. It is more like a snowstorm in late winter, and also demonstrates a sense of tranquility.

Now let’s appreciate a piece of “snowstorm material” and see whether the water-out effect of the finished product is pleasing to the eye.

Two pieces of snowflake cotton from a big brand left over after making the bracelets. Masters will use materials like this to design themes with artistic conception to highlight the characteristics of snowflake cotton.

Let me show you one of the pieces first.

Preliminary design of the work. ▽

The master uses the characteristics of snowflake cotton to create the artistic conception of snowflakes dancing in the wind. The lady's facial expression is peaceful and gentle, her skirt flutters in the wind and snow, she holds a flower in her slender hands and admires herself, her eyes are calm and deeply intoxicated with the branches in her hands.

After a month of design and creation, a piece of "Searching for Plum Blossoms in the Snow" was finally shipped.

The material is very good in both texture and water quality.

The plum blossom's qualities of defying the snow and frost, its pure, cold fragrance, its elegance and holiness are exactly what suits people with high moral integrity.

Therefore, walking in the snow to search for plum blossoms became a way to find spiritual nourishment and mental support, and it has become a famous story that has been passed down through the ages.

Although the white cotton of this snowflake cotton material is too large and uneven, it is well integrated with the base of the material. The cotton spots have clear edges and edges, and at first glance it does not seem to be defective, but rather has a lot of charm. Moreover, the cotton is more concentrated and the surface is very clean without any impurities, which makes the material more valuable for carving.
