Jade carving Many people do not understand the process of jade carving. In most people's impression, jade carving only requires drawing a picture on a computer and then putting the jade material on the machine, just like most factory assembly line products. It is true that some lower-quality jade raw materials will be mass-produced by machine carving, but as long as the quality of the jade raw materials is relatively high, the design and carving process will be very complicated in order to make the best use of the material. The carving of high-quality jade raw materials is very particular. It is generally divided into several processes such as material inspection, design, carving, polishing, cleaning, waxing, etc. The first four are the main stages, and the latter processes are post-processing stages. Material review and design What we are going to talk about today is mainly material inspection and design. Material inspection is easy to understand. When a jade carver gets the jade raw material, he will definitely not start working immediately. Instead, he will carefully observe and study the characteristics of the jade material to give himself a more comprehensive understanding of the material. We mainly observe the flaws, hardness, transparency, color, etc. of the jade material, and no details can be missed. Many jade carvers spend more than a month studying the jade material after getting it, but still do not start working on it. This is a reflection of the jade carvers' thriftiness with the material. On the other hand, an exquisite piece of jade jewelry also embodies the countless efforts of jade carvers. This is also the reason why the carving work is often more expensive than the material. Jade carvers must accumulate experience over a long period of time before they can design jade jewelry that can truly be called a fine product. After completing the material inspection, we will have a more comprehensive understanding of the jade material in front of us, and we will have a rough idea of what themes the material is suitable for. Only then can we start designing. Design runs through the entire process of jade jewelry making. First, the theme and shape of the jade must be designed, and then constant fine-tuning is required during the carving process. Even seemingly simple details need to be carefully designed. Design Points We need to ensure that jade jewelry is clean and tidy. Jade has some flaws, so we need to dig out the dirt and cover the flaws, and remove the flaws of jade through carving. However, we must never dig them out abruptly, but remove them cleverly through reasonable design. The materials used must also be reasonable. After removing the flaws on the jade, we must also highlight its beauty, find out the advantages of jade, and then design it into a finishing touch, such as placing the floating flowers in the jade in the most conspicuous place and highlighting the color. A one point difference in color will result in a tenfold difference in price. Color has a huge impact on the value of jade. All colors are valuable, and we must not waste the colors on jade. fcgc66 fcpf18 |
