Jadeite covered with moss can only be thrown away? Through the hands of the sculptor, see what it means to save lives and heal the wounded!

The "moss" in jade refers to the black or dark-gray stripes and patches on the surface or interior of jade. Just from the name, it is an unpleasant flaw.

For example, on this piece of material, you can see obvious moss at a glance. Perhaps some jade lovers have no interest in such material, but in the eyes of the sculptor, there is no waste. You only need to remove the moss during processing and avoid the lichen when carving. The rest is to turn decay into magic!

This piece of material has a bright and beautiful color, but unfortunately it has moss on it. However, the sculptor chose to observe it carefully and remove all the moss that could not be used first.

After careful consideration by the sculptor, it was decided to follow the relationship between the moss and the floating flowers on the material, cleverly utilize the moss on the material that is despised by ordinary people, fully retain the most natural form of the material, and then design the concept and cleverly match the color.

The color on the top of this material is relatively bright, while the bottom is a large area of ​​black moss, mixed with a lot of other colors.

Ultimately the sculptor planned to make the black moss into a drum, and the brightly colored part above into a dragon.

The final product is actually very beautiful, isn’t it?

It can really be said that this piece of material was "saved" by the sculptor. The combination of the drum and the dragon not only fully utilizes and integrates the two colors, but also symbolizes good luck and wealth.

Some jade lovers may particularly pursue flawless jade, but jade is, after all, a natural product of nature and will have some flaws to a certain extent. As long as you know how to tolerate them, you may discover a different beauty of jade.

【crack】

The cracks in jade are visible to the naked eye, and you will feel a break when scratched with a fingernail. Although jade is very hard, it will shatter when subjected to a violent collision, and cracks in jade can have a fatal impact on its value.

【lock】

Streaks are also called stone patterns, and they are created by nature. They are small cracks that are congenital in jade during the formation process. They generally exist inside the jade and can be ignored if they do not affect the appearance!

【Color】

Miscellaneous colors are also called impurities by jade lovers. Miscellaneous colors are colors formed by some other substances mixed into jade when it is formed. The existence of mirages also shows that the base of jade is not pure enough.

【cotton】

Cotton is an inclusion in jade that is in the form of lumps, fibers, or sheets, like clouds or fog, and has a certain impact on the aesthetics of jade.

Some flaws in jadeite are not a big problem as long as they do not affect the quality of jadeite too much, and don’t we still have our powerful engravers~

In addition to the material introduced above, there are actually many miracles of jade carving~

Such a piece of raw material with many fibers, cracks and impurities is actually a great material for the carving master to unleash his creativity!

A seemingly worthless piece of jade rough material is transformed into an unexpected effect by the skillful hands of a master sculptor, who combines precise, clever, delicate and hollow carving techniques.

I believe that many jade lovers would want to throw away this material when they see it. It looks black at first glance, and it seems that no matter how it is processed, it will hardly have any appreciation value.

But in the end, through the ingenious idea of ​​the carving master, he actually carved out a group of lively and cute Dalmatians, some playing around, some acting cute, and I really want to take them all home~

There is also this piece of material left after the bracelet was taken out. Judging from its size, it is a bit small for making a plaque, and it also has cracks, but the quality, color and other aspects are still good. It would be a pity to throw it away.

Finally, through the perfect combination of clever carving and delicate carving techniques, a romantic Chinese wedding "The Most Beautiful Moment" is perfectly presented!

As the saying goes: A good cook cannot cook without rice. The importance of jade raw materials as the primary factor for the survival of a sculptor is self-evident. Excellent sculptors can often maximize the value of the materials in their hands.

This exquisite carving skill is not achieved overnight. It is often the result of slow exploration through years of practice. Only with countless sweat and unremitting pursuit of beauty can one create superb skills that are amazing and can turn decay into magic.

In this way, it is not difficult to understand why a raw material that may be worthless in the eyes of others can be worth a hundred times more after passing through their hands.

The ancients said: Jade cannot be made into a useful object without being carved.

From the raw jadeite to the gorgeous and beautiful finished jadeite product, it contains so much hard work and wisdom of the sculptor!

There is a saying in the jade industry that "three parts material and seven parts workmanship". It is conceivable that the carving craftsmanship of jade is very important. There are many jade carving techniques, such as relief, round carving, hollow carving, etc. However, when judging the quality of the carving, people often look at "cleverness, beauty and refinement".

【The “cleverness” of jadeite】

"Qiao" refers to clever conception and meaning. A good conception can maximize the beauty of a piece of jade. According to the type, water, color, structure and size of the raw material itself, the most suitable style can be designed and the most beautiful meaning defined.

【The “pretty” of jadeite】

"Qiao" refers to the use of color. The colors of jade are colorful and varied. According to the characteristics of the raw materials, the layout of each color is fully utilized to make the color and style harmonious and unified, perfectly showing the beauty of jade.

【The “Essence” of Jade】

"Fine" refers to the exquisite craftsmanship, which is mainly reflected in the details of a work, the smooth lines, the harmonious proportions, and the lifelike expressions. A good jade carving work is composed of a combination of details.
