Is it enough as long as the raw materials are good? See how carving technology affects jade prices!

We often say that a good piece of jade must be of excellent quality, water, color and workmanship. Species, water, color, I have often shared these with you in the past period of time, and many jade friends know something about them more or less, so today I will talk to you about the "craftsmanship" that we rarely mention.

As the saying goes, "If jade is not carved, it will not be made into a useful object." No matter how good the jade is, if it is not given craftsmanship, it is just a lifeless ore. This is an exception for jade lovers who like natural beauty and loose stones, because the quality of a piece of jade is ultimately reflected in the craftsmanship of the carving master.

In addition, "nine out of ten jades have patterns", and in many cases, the quality of the carving determines the value of the jade itself, or we can say that the jade accounts for two points, the carving craftsmanship accounts for seven points, and one point is polishing, because nowadays, it is not uncommon for the labor cost to be higher than the material itself.

When the craftsmanship reaches a certain level of refinement, every extra point of refinement requires ten more points of labor time. An ordinary piece of jade, after being processed by a good craftsman, can often become something with infinite creativity, profound artistic conception, and magnificent beauty.

The quality of craftsmanship has a significant impact on the value of jade works, so the cost of carving accounts for a considerable proportion of the price of jade, and in some cases it even accounts for a large proportion of the price.

The design plan is also a big influencing factor. The more creative the design plan is, the higher the jade carving cost will be. Being able to sublimate rich life experiences into art and extract themes that are thoughtful and have a sense of contemporary responsibility will undoubtedly greatly enhance the value of the work.

Therefore, the quality of jade carving directly affects the price of jade. The jade carving process is also extremely particular. China has had no shortage of excellent jade carving masters since ancient times, and the jade carving technology has been constantly developing with the passage of time.

Only when a piece of raw jade is integrated with culture and art can it become a stunning work of art, and jade carving is a way to give jade a new transformation. Therefore, when it comes to collection-level jade works, craftsmanship is often an important consideration that cannot be ignored.

This modern jade carving masterpiece has made breakthroughs in craftsmanship and bold attempts in the use of tools. When evaluating treasures and masterpieces of jade carvings, it is necessary to analyze the factors that constitute treasures and masterpieces, conduct a comprehensive analysis of the factors that constitute treasures and masterpieces, compare them with similar works, and use market, cost and other methods to evaluate their value, so as to make correct value judgments.
