The Application and Techniques of "Colorful and Clever Carving" in Jade Carving

The Application and Techniques of "Colorful and Clever Carving" in Jade Carving

This is a piece of material close to the jade skin. One side of the material is still the original skin that has not been polished clean. The characteristics of this jade material are high-quality water and positive green color. The disadvantage is that the shape of the edge material is irregular. The green color is basically distributed in the thin and irregular skin and flesh mixed area around it.

This piece of jade is not suitable for further cutting into smaller and neat pieces. If it is cut again, on the one hand the green part will be wasted, and on the other hand the carving will become smaller. At this time, using the method of clever carving to design the carving subject is the direction of the creative thinking for this piece of material.

The jade carving master further removes the skin of the jade, and removes the black ringworm and fine lines, so that the green color on the jade is fully displayed, and the green color is very eye-catching! And this touch of positive green is the starting point for designing the sculpture theme!

After conceiving several themes and communicating with the owners, the final version is "Year after Year of Abundance": the design is based on the distribution of green on jade and the direction of the color roots, combined with the uneven grooves on the surface of jade, and the colors are respectively used as the pectoral fins, dorsal fins, caudal fins and other elements of the fish. The whole picture has a goldfish looking back, which is very cute and endearing! !

After the design brings out the color of the jade, the next step is to carve it skillfully. The jade carving master uses a combination of relief, round and openwork to carve the pattern. He cleverly uses the grooves on the jade material to carve them into flowing lines on the goldfish's body and even hollows out the openwork where necessary to make the image of the goldfish vivid, as if a living goldfish is swimming freely before your eyes.

The jade fish has the beautiful meaning of abundance every year, being like a fish in water, and having a house full of gold and jade.

This piece of "Niannianyouyu" is a very classic example of clever carving with beautiful colors. The biggest highlight of the material is green, and the biggest problem is also the distribution of green. She uses clever carving with beautiful colors to connect the highlights and shortcomings, which is very clever!
