For high-end jadeite, plain surface is king!

For high-end jadeite, plain surface is king!

The so-called "plain" jade is what insiders call "glossy" jade. There are no carved patterns or decorations on the surface, and its smooth surface shows the true type, water content and color of jade.

The beauty of jade lies in its quality, and plain jade is also the craft that can best reflect the beauty of jade. High-quality jade often uses the "plain" form to present its warm and delicate texture, using minimalism to interpret the charm of fashion.

Pure body, remove the dross and take the essence

The plain jade is concise and clear, but beneath this simplicity lies the strict demand for the quality of the jade, which does not tolerate any flaws and only selects the best among the best.

Plain jade has very high quality requirements for the material itself. First of all, it must be the best part of the jade material, with icy and transparent water quality, clean and pure color, and not even a single crack or cotton.

As the saying goes, "Nine out of ten jades have patterns." You can imagine how precious beautiful and flawless plain jade is. Even among a hundred pieces of material, you may not find one piece that can be made into plain jade.

Lines, outline the rounded shape

Because of its simplicity, the most critical and most commonly used thing when highlighting the beauty of jade is lines.

It seems to be a random combination of lines, but in fact it makes the jade look full and round on every side, with colorful luster.

The firm straight lines outline the shape of the square plate, the soft curves plan the general outline of the ring face, and the winding and graceful lines shape the perfection of the bracelet.

The lines encircle the soul into the water quality of the jadeite, and the water color is one day, composing the profundity of minimalism.

What makes plain jade so expensive?

01. High requirements on texture

"Plain" jade is also called "naked" jade by experts. There are no patterns or decorations on the surface, and no cracks or scratches. No stains are allowed, so the texture of the jade is extremely high.

In addition, "naked" means high-quality "clean", rare and flawless, while the intricate patterns on finely carved jade are mostly used to hide cracks and scars.

02 The old color is beautiful and is the standard

If the jade is tender and has no bright spots in color, it will definitely not be plain jade!

The old color is the standard for plain jadeite. Therefore, only with this standard can we ensure that plain jadeite will not mutate or undergo other changes and maintain its original noble and rich appearance.

03 Showcasing the natural beauty of jade

Plain jade can best reflect the quality and beauty of jade, while diamonds and colored gems excel in luster and fire. When using them as decorations, attention should be paid to the cutting to show a brilliant and dazzling effect.

The undecorated plain surface is like a girl with a rosy face without any makeup, clean and pure, unforgettable, perfectly showing the natural beauty of jade.

Today's fashion has long since changed from complex and prosperous to minimalist and sophisticated, just like plain jade, which has returned to its original origin from its original gorgeous shape, without polishing or decoration, keeping its original intention and being the simplest and noblest self!
