Why are there such huge differences in the charges for jade carving? Let you know the standard of jade processing fee

The current market for jade processing is divided into two categories: computer processing and manual processing. Computer engraving generally charges less than one hundred yuan per piece. However, the charges for hand carving vary greatly. Generally speaking, the carving fee is affected by the jade material, design, craftsmanship and the fame of the master.

1. Jade raw materials:

The quality and shape characteristics of the jade raw materials will affect the difficulty of carving. The better the quality of the material, the more careful the master will be when carving. Inexperienced masters dare not start, and the carving fee will naturally increase. In addition, the larger the material, the more time and effort it takes, and the higher the processing cost.

2. Carving design:

It is said that 70% creativity and 30% labor. The quality of the design will also affect the cost of engraving. A good design means that the design theme is in line with the characteristics of the material, the cotton blocks, fine lines and other defects of the material can be cleverly avoided, the lines are carefully processed, and the finished product gives people a comfortable feeling. Poor design means that the material can cater to the design theme. The design drawing is determined first, and then the material is trimmed into the desired shape. The painting is done with eyes closed without considering pressing the cotton to avoid cracking. The finished product is stiff and lifeless.

3. The identity of the jade carver:

Carving is the basic skill of a jade carving master, which requires time and experience to hone. The price for a beginner and a master who has been carving for more than ten years is of course completely different. The fame of a jade carver will also affect the labor cost of jade carving, which is the so-called celebrity effect. The labor charges for national and provincial jade carving artists, outstanding jade carvers, and ordinary jade carvers are definitely different. If you want to meet a good jade carving master, it depends on fate and luck. It's good enough if the master is willing to take your job. Why are you still worrying about the labor fee?

In addition to the above points, the consumption levels in different regions will also slightly affect the labor costs of jade carving.
