Jadeite raw stone cannot be cut randomly, how to cut it is a science

The jadeite seen on the market are all meticulously crafted, from raw materials to finished products. The process of cutting and making is like a complex and precise operation. Any slight mistake will ruin a good piece of jadeite.

Stone cutting is a technical job, and it is not as simple as 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 issues all require careful consideration. Otherwise, the jadeite raw stone you bought might have originally been able to appreciate in value, but it was "cut" in half because of your arbitrary and capricious decision.

So, this first cut is very important. So what preparations should be made before cutting?

First, wipe it if you can.

There is an old saying in the industry: "Polishing the stone can make you rich, but cutting the stone can determine your life or death!" Before cutting the gambling stone, rub off a little of the skin so that you can better observe the internal situation and help judge the cutting position. However, there is an old 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, slice

The so-called slicing refers to the first cut in cutting jadeite. After this cut, we will have a general understanding of the original stone. However, slicing does not mean deep cutting. It is only used for observation and judgment before choosing the direction of cutting. However, it also requires careful observation and analysis before making a decision. If there is a crack in the original stone, then the first cut should be made along the crack.

Third, mark

When cutting, use a marker to accurately mark the cutting position. If the material is good in quality or color, an error of a few millimeters may result in a loss of more than a few hundred yuan. Especially for color materials, you must be especially careful and start cutting from the worst part, with the principle of not destroying the green color of the original stone.

Fourth, cutting

After careful inspection, the jadeite raw stone can proceed to the next step of cutting. At this point, until most of the skin of the original stone is cut off and the jade in the entire original stone is exposed, every step of the cutting must be done in one go without any mistakes. This is a laborious and skill-intensive process, because if the cutter is not careful, the sharp cutting machine in the hands of the cutter will damage the relatively high-quality parts of the jade.

So to sum up, if you want to increase your profits, these four points are indeed essential. In fact, if possible, you should get to know a good cutting master! He may give you valuable suggestions. If you choose the right material and make the most of it, you can certainly get higher profits.
