The Four Beauties of Jadeite

The Four Beauties of Jadeite

It is recorded in ancient books: "Appreciate the jade-like beauty of heaven and earth." This sentence reveals the characteristics of jade and jadeite, which gathers the brilliance of the sun and the moon and contains the beauty of mountains and rivers. Jade carries the aura bestowed by the Creator and has been the direction of people's pursuit of beauty for thousands of years. People classify the beauty of jade into four categories: color beauty, implicit beauty, mysterious beauty, and plasticity beauty. Today, I will take you to appreciate the “four beauties” of jadeite.

The beauty of jadeite: beautiful color

Jade, blessed by nature, is the most colorful of all gemstones. From green to red, purple, yellow, black and colorless and transparent colors, all can be found in jade. No matter what kind of gemstone it is, the first thing that catches people's eyes is the color. The varied colors of jadeite give people more choices and make people love jadeite more.




The second beauty of jadeite: implicit beauty

Extraordinary beauty is not the essence of jade. Rather, it is warm and fresh, and its natural color becomes more apparent as time goes by. This is what makes jade most admirable and beloved. The implicitness of jade reveals an emotion that only Oriental people possess. Because of its icy and implicit water head, it is not flashy but deep and heavy, just like the qualities that the Chinese nation pursues and praises.




The Three Beauties of Jadeite - Mysterious Beauty

Jade's inherent mysterious beauty represents the depth of Chinese culture. Because the surface of the jadeite raw stone is covered by a layer of weathered skin, even today with the development of science and technology, there is no instrument that can penetrate the skin and see the quality of the raw stone inside. Even experienced experts are not sure of victory. This characteristic of jade gives it a sense of mystery, just like a beautiful woman like a flower in the clouds, the mysterious and hazy beauty is fascinating.




The Four Beauties of Jadeite - Plastic Beauty

Jade's crystal clear texture and ever-changing colors make it very plastic. Jade is not like diamond, which is too hard to be carved. Jade is also not like other rocks, which are too soft and cannot be plastic. Jade has the right hardness and softness and comes in a variety of colors, which gives jade carvers more room to express themselves, thus creating a wide variety of elegant and generous jade carvings.
