An ordinary jade bracelet core is carved into a heart-warming Guanyin statue

In jade carving culture, wearing jade Guanyin jewelry can protect the wearer from having everything they want, especially since Guanyin has a gentle nature. When worn by men, it can eliminate violence and keep them away from trouble, so there has always been a saying that "men wearing Guanyin".

This is an ordinary glutinous jade bracelet core. Bracelet cores like this are very common in the rough material market and the price is not too expensive. Let’s first look at the jade material. Although the water quality is not particularly good, the floating green flowers on it have attracted the attention of the jade carver. If you carefully appreciate the green flowers, you will find that the green flowers are very charming. If used properly, they will be a highlight of this jade work.

The jade carver carefully observed and imagined the green flower, and combined with his rich experience in jade carving, he found that the green flower looked very much like Guanyin's flowing clothes, and finally came up with the inspiration for this Guanyin theme. Based on the image of Guanyin and the distribution of floating flowers on the jade material, the jade carver outlined the composition with an oil pen. Isn’t this color combination very clever?

Although the water quality of the material is not particularly good, it has reached the level of glutinous ice. Therefore, the jade carver uses shallow relief to carve the lines of Guanyin. While saving jade materials, he can also adjust the water through carving techniques, which not only maintains the thickness of the round plate, but also makes the work more translucent and the water quality more moist!

The most difficult part in carving Guanyin is carving her face, but for a skilled jade carver, this is a piece of cake. After the lines of the clothes are clearly outlined, the jade carver will start to carve the face of Guanyin.

Although this work does not have complex line carvings, it is more difficult to carve than carving a landscape or dragon plaque, and it takes longer. This is because if a step is wrong in a carving with simple lines, it is very difficult to modify it, and this type of carving pays more attention to the creation of the charm of the subject matter.

Finally, the work is polished and you can see that the green flowers on the jade have completely melted, and it is very elegant and lively; and after adjusting the water, the water quality of the round plate is also amazing, and it is paired with a kind and quiet Guanyin, it is really beautiful. Are you moved when you see it?
