Robots are so amazing, why does high-end jade still need to be carved by hand?

In recent years, there has been a saying that machine intelligence has defeated the human brain. Jack Ma even predicted that in the next 30 years, machines will replace most manpower. The jade carving industry has also encountered such a problem. So will manual carving really be replaced by machine carving?

It takes several days to make a jade bracelet by hand, but it takes less than half an hour to polish it by machine.

A meticulously handcrafted Guanyin statue would take at least three to five days, or even a month, but a machine only needs a few hours! And one model can be mass-produced! !

As long as there is jade material, you can mass-produce as much as you want and the exact same shape will come out.

Today's high-precision computer numerical control can even be so fine that it is invisible to laymen.

Compared with hand carving, machine carving

Hand-carved:

Need solution design

Painted Jade

Hand polishing

A series of steps that are time-consuming and laborious

The price is relatively high

Machine carving:

The shape of the jade material is suitable

Corresponding to the corresponding model

Fast engraving time

The price is much cheaper

Having said so much, why don’t mid-to-high-end jadeite use machine carving?

It is generally recognized that good jade requires good craftsmanship. Although machine carving is fast, it cannot carve according to the texture of the jade material, and it cannot carve out the spirituality of jade. The most important thing is, are you confident in carving such expensive jade on a machine? Suddenly something went wrong and my heart was broken!

After all, the purpose of machine carving is to reduce costs. Compared with some low-end goods, machine carving is used more often, which can effectively reduce costs.

For mid- to high-end goods, especially high-quality goods, good craftsmanship can double the price of jade materials. It is naturally impossible to choose machine carving that has no spirit!

Especially when encountering irregular shapes , colors, and unique water quality distribution, machine carving will not be able to best display the charm of the jade material. For example, the use of beautiful colors requires a lot of talent from the jade carver.

Even though the speed and precision of machine carving are unmatched by humans, it cannot replace people's creativity. Monotonous things will ultimately be no match for jade carvings with soul.
