Is the cut of jade really that important?

Jade is loved by people for its crystal clear texture and is called the "King of Jade". So today I will tell you about the cutting of jade.

Literally speaking, jade cutting refers to the process of cutting jade raw stone, but in fact, jade cutting is very important, because every process of jade production involves cutting. For example: we need to consider a series of issues such as material selection, design, cutting ratio, carving direction, etc. It is definitely not as simple and crude as we imagined.

For example: the cutting of jade needs to consider the jade's grain. Speaking of this, many people feel strange, can jade have grain? In fact, jade also has grain. Because jade is formed in a low temperature and high pressure environment, the crystals inside the jade generally grow along places with less pressure, thus forming grains, and when we cut jade, we usually cut along the jade's grain, so that the overall effect of the cut jade is better.

However, if we cut against the grain of the jade, it will affect the viewing experience of the jade. Although the color and water quality will not change much, it will always look lacking in beauty. It will also lead to poor polishing effect in the later stage.
