Many jade lovers, when they get the material, would like to ask a statue of Guanyin or Buddha to bless them with peace and happiness! But what kind of jade material is suitable for Guanyin? Generally speaking, if you want to use jade to carve Guanyin or Buddha themes, I would recommend using material with good water quality, a clean base, and as few cracks as possible. If the jade is of good quality, the faces and clothes of the characters can be carved delicately to make the faces look good; if the base is clean, it can ensure that there will be no jokes like "painted face" or "yin-yang face"; if the cracks are too big or too many, even crack-avoiding carvings sometimes cannot cover them up, so perfection is also very important! Today I will share an example to show you what kind of jade is suitable for carving Guanyin! This is an old type of glutinous ice jade. It has a faint gum texture under natural light, a refreshing base color, and a hint of faint floating flowers. The quality of the material is very elegant! When you press the light to look at it, you can see that the base of the jade is very clean, the texture is delicate, and the crystal structure is small. It is icy and translucent. It is as tempting as jelly and as refreshing as the sky. It is very comfortable to look at! This jade meets the necessary conditions for the Guanyin theme: 1. The material has good water quality; 2. The base is clean and delicate; 3. No cracks. Therefore, the jade carving master combined the shape of the jade material and designed it into the theme of Guanyin holding lotus! When carving, the master carves skillfully uses a combination of negative and positive carving to carve Guanyin. While maintaining the overall visual thickness, the actual thickness of the jade is reduced. The jade is more translucent and the finished product is more moist! The carved face of Guanyin is exquisite, and the clothing gives people a feeling of gorgeousness without being complicated, with a well-arranged density; the semi-matte polishing treatment makes the pattern clearly layered! In order to avoid being monotonous, a lotus leaf, lotus flower and fish are designed on the back, and they are all matte polished, which makes it look very layered. fcgc66 fcpf18 |
