How many jade inlay techniques do you know?

For us, jade is a high-end luxury item, but it is also a popular accessory. What's the difference? This is particularly evident in both the material of jade and the processing of jade, especially in the inlaid items. The inlaid jade combines Chinese and Western elements, making it more fashionable and charming.

Jade inlay is generally divided into two types: creative inlay and craft inlay.


Creative inlay, as the name suggests, is based on creativity. Jade is the soul of realizing the entire design creativity. Then it is combined with other methods to create a creative jade jewelry with a sense of design.

Craft inlay is the main focus today, because there are many methods and techniques in craft inlay that need to be understood. The purpose of inlay craft is to protect jade and enhance the beauty of jade jewelry.


Grasping setting method: a few small claws tightly press the edge of the jade. The claws are welded to the ring setting. There are four claws, six claws, and even double eight claws.

Nail setting method: One thing that must be paid attention to in this method is that the jadeite cannot be placed too deep or too shallow, and it must be coordinated and symmetrical with the ring setting. There are three types of setting: four-nail setting, diagonal setting, and pave setting.


Tube setting method: This setting method is used on round, oval and egg-shaped jadeite. The drilled groove only needs to be the same as the circular edge of the jadeite and does not need to be parallel.

Card setting: This setting method uses the tension of metal to fix the waist of the jade or the part between the waist and the bottom tip.


Hidden inlay: This inlay method is to inlay jade in a part of the metal that is thicker or has a larger area. The pavilion of the jade will not be exposed. It is a very stable inlay method and is also very durable. This method is also called smearing.

Jade is actually a girl. When she puts on beautiful clothes, she will become a beautiful girl. Jade inlay is the clothes of jade.
