Did you know that this is how jade experts select Buddha statues?

It is said that men wear Guanyin and women wear Buddha. In fact, there is no distinction between men and women when it comes to Buddha statues. Both men and women can wear them. The only difference is that men should try to choose larger and thicker ones.

Maitreya Buddha, also known as the Big Belly Buddha, is the most common Buddha on the market. Maitreya Buddha has kind eyes and a gentle smile. He laughs at all the ridiculous things in the world and has an optimistic attitude that can tolerate even the most difficult things in the world. He is quite loved and respected by jade lovers. Because the big-bellied Maitreya Buddha is very common, sometimes several Buddha statues are placed in front of you at the same time. Do you not know how to choose for a while?

Grind the jade into a thinner layer to enhance its light transmittance and improve its transparency, making it easier for the jade to produce water and appear to have better water content. Process the back of the jade carving into a concave side to expand the light-receiving area. This is the water adjustment of jade.

The water adjustment of the Buddha is to thin the back of the Buddha's head and belly, so that the originally not outstanding base material appears crystal clear. When the base material is not transparent enough, reduce the thickness without affecting the overall basis, increase the light transmittance of the Buddha, and achieve the effect of water. This will make the Buddha pendant look crystal clear and refreshing as a whole.

Of course, in addition to carving and water adjustment, there is also inlay water adjustment. We will not go into details here. Water adjustment is a very common skill in modern jade carving technology. If you mind, you can choose a one-cut jade carving pendant. A one-cut means a jade carving pendant with a flat back that has not been carved or adjusted.

Apart from this, what we need to pay great attention to is the craftsmanship of the Buddha statue. The craftsmanship here refers to the face of the Buddha, the proportion of the body, and the fineness of the carving. A good Buddha statue must look comfortable, upright, and full of spirit as a whole.

According to folk legend, a thick chin means good fortune and longevity. When choosing a Buddha statue, we must first carefully observe the Buddha's face. First of all, when choosing a Buddha statue, we should try to choose one with a round and thick chin. The rounder the chin, the more blessed the person is. Do not choose a pointed chin.

"Always smile and be happy" refers to people's impression of the Buddha's smile, so when choosing a Buddha, the Buddha's smile is also very important. The mouth should be smiled into a pea shape, which is both beautiful and shows the Buddha's compassion. Remember not to choose a Buddha with an uncoordinated face that looks ferocious or sad.

There is also a saying that “a big belly can accommodate everything in the world” so when choosing a Buddha, his belly must be round and full to show his magnanimity. However, the premise for choosing a Buddha’s big belly is that it cannot affect the overall proportions. And when viewed from the side, the belly should be more protruding than the face, so that it appears thick and full.
