What are the cutting methods of jadeite? How is jadeite rough stone cut?

Generally speaking, when we get a piece of jadeite raw stone, the first thing we do is not to cut it immediately, but to observe it carefully. This is the so-called "test material". The polishing method was used to analyze the internal conditions of the raw stone to determine the next processing technology. The jadeite you see on the market is all carefully crafted. From raw materials to finished products, the process of cutting and making is a complex and precise operation. A small mistake can ruin a good jade.

Stone cutting is a technical job that involves more than just splitting a jadeite stone in half. How to choose the cutting position, how to deal with surface cracks, how many cuts to make, etc., these are all issues that must be carefully considered. Otherwise, perhaps the jadeite raw stone you bought would have appreciated in value, but it was "cut" in half because of such a willful and capricious cut. Therefore, this first cut is very important. So what preparations should be made before cutting?

First, wipe it if you can.

There is a saying in the industry: "Polishing the stone can make you rich, but cutting the stone can determine your life or death!" By rubbing off the skin of the stone before it is cut, you can better observe the internal condition and help determine where to cut. However, there is also a saying: "A rise is not considered a rise if it is wiped off, but it is considered a rise if it is cut off."

Second, cutting

The so-called cutting refers to the first cutting of jadeite. After such cutting, we have a general understanding of the original stone. But the cutting is not deep, it is only used for observation and judgment, and then to choose a good direction to cut, but it is also necessary to observe and analyze carefully before making a decision. If the original stone has a crack, the first cut should be made from the crack.

Third, mark

When cutting, use a marker to mark the exact cutting location. If the material is of good quality or color, a deviation of a few millimeters will result in a loss of more than a few hundred yuan. Especially for the color material, you must be especially careful and cut it from the worst place, keeping the original stone green as the principle.

Fourth, cutting

After careful inspection, the next step is to cut the jadeite raw stone. At this point, until most of the skin of the original stone has been removed and the jade in the entire original stone is exposed, each step of cutting must be done in place and nothing can be done carelessly. This is a difficult process that tests one's skill level. If the cutter is not careful, the sharp cutting machine in his hands will damage the higher quality parts of the jade.

So to sum up, if you want to increase your profits, these four points are indeed indispensable. In fact, if possible, you can get to know a good cutting master. He may be able to give you valuable advice. If the raw material is cut well and used to the fullest extent, the profit you get will of course be higher.
