The process of processing jadeite raw stone into jadeite bracelet

There is an old saying: "Why is it so wide, and why does it jump out of the wrist?" The ancient meaning of "tiaotuo" is jade bracelet. In the eyes of ancient women, jade bracelet is not only an ornament to embellish themselves, but also a symbol of love.

The functions of jade bracelets can be roughly divided into three aspects: 1. Show identity and highlight personality; 2. Beautify the wearer; 3. Health care. However, most people are still not clear about how jadeite raw stones are processed into jadeite bracelets. Today, the editor will explain in detail the process of processing jadeite raw stones into jadeite bracelets.

1. Slicing

Based on experience, the block of jadeite raw stone is cut into sheets of different thicknesses. Generally, the thickness of the slices is about two centimeters, which is why the finished jade bracelet does not appear too bulky.

2. Draw a circle

The size of the jade bracelet is determined based on the cracks, size, and color distribution of the jade raw material, so that the bracelet's quality and color can be optimal and the output can be maximized. Every piece of jadeite raw stone will have cracks, which is an important feature of natural jadeite. How to avoid cracks, impurities, dirty spots, and piles of cotton wool after cutting should be the most basic common sense for qualified processors and jade merchants. The starting point of everything should be to maximize the value of the materials!

3. Suction (endo and ecto) embryos

According to the diameter of the outer circle of the jadeite bracelet, match the corresponding drill bit to suck out the entire jadeite bracelet, which is known in the industry as "sucking the outer embryo"; according to the diameter of the inner circle of the jadeite bracelet, select the drill bit to suck out the inner circle, which is known in the industry as "sucking the inner embryo".


4. Top, edge and punch

Removing defects and cracks from the rough piece is called topping; removing the edges and corners of a jade bracelet and grinding it into a smooth shape is called edging. The curvature of round jade bracelets and flat jade bracelets is different, so the angle and strength when punching the embryo are also different.

5. Grinding and polishing

After the blank is punched, the marks on the rough blank are polished and completely shaped from the inside out. Polish the polished bracelet back and forth several times until the jade bracelet reaches the desired brightness. Grinding and polishing is the last step in processing jadeite raw stone into jadeite bracelet. Only after the polisher's superb skills can a perfect jadeite bracelet be completed.


In the process of processing jadeite raw stone into jadeite bracelets, every link is crucial, but in addition to this, the quality of the jadeite raw stone is also very critical, which directly determines the value of the jadeite raw stone after it is processed into a jadeite bracelet.

In fact, the quality refers to the density of the jadeite raw stone during the formation process. The higher the density, the better the quality of the raw material. On the contrary, if the density is not enough, the structure of the jadeite raw stone will be loose, which will affect the final polishing of the jadeite product, and the effect will be very ordinary. On the contrary, only with an old quality can the jade industry achieve "fluorescence" and "glue feeling".

Water head and quality are an inseparable pair. They complement each other and make the jade product reach a certain quality. However, without water head, the finished jade product will be very dry and will not look moist at all. Therefore, the value does not reach a certain level.
