The story of the rebirth of the “waste material” of jadeite raw stone. It turns out that carving is its second life, a successful counterattack!

In jadeite gambling, if the color and water quality are correct and there are not too many fatal cracks, then you win the bet. That’s why there is a saying in the jadeite gambling industry: “One cut makes you poor, one cut makes you rich, and one cut makes you covered in sackcloth.” It means that there are too many uncertain factors in jadeite gambling. Once the jadeite raw stone is cut, a large amount of money will shrink instantly. So, jadeite gambling is a losing bet. Will the cut raw stone become waste?

In fact, the cut stones can still be used as raw materials for medium and low-grade jadeite. Among them, there will be a very small number of lucky stones selected by jade carvers. Then, under the magic craftsmanship of the carvers, the value of this originally worthless stone will skyrocket, and it will have the opportunity to be reborn.

The quality of this piece of jadeite raw stone is very poor, with only a little green. It is basically of no use. No one would buy such material, as it would be a loss of money. However, after meeting a mentor, this stone that was originally discarded gained new life, and its fate has changed since then!

Before carving jade, a rough sketch needs to be drawn first, so the jade carver not only needs to master painting skills but also has three-dimensional imagination. It is with the careful design of the jade carver that this artistic conception of Lao Tzu holding a scripture and riding a cow comes to mind, along with the mountains and sunrise in the distance, the fairy air of auspicious clouds and the Tai Chi Bagua diagram, and a picture of auspicious meaning is drawn.

The design draft is completely drawn on the jade, and then it is finely carved. Jade carving is also a very meticulous process. Every detail is the result of painstaking efforts and no carelessness is allowed. As a result, this inconspicuous stone gradually takes shape and suddenly becomes different!

After careful carving, it is difficult to compare it with the original material. The three-dimensional image is very obvious. From the raw stone to the finished product, the jade is given a new life by the jade carving master. After carving, the jade needs to be polished, and then the jade will be more lustrous.

The vividness of the carvings can be seen from the details. The cleverly carved works use colors to the best level and the emerald green is used to such perfection, which is really ingenious.

The finished product after polishing is stunning! The static and dynamic patterns are very artistic, and the characters are portrayed very well, becoming the focus of the entire work, with a fascinating texture. It is no longer the insignificant piece of stone it once was, but a work of exquisite craftsmanship.

This is also a piece of raw stone that can be discarded. It is not even worth making a pendant. If you don’t look closely, you might think it is an ordinary pebble by the river. It is too inconspicuous. I don’t know how the carver plans to save such a raw stone.

Only the sculptor has the most imagination. When he sees such a raw stone, he knows how to start. The white part is indeed very similar to food, so it becomes rice and dumplings, while the yellow skin part is carved into bowls and plates. The use of this color is really unique!

The dumplings are not completely white, but they appear three-dimensional because of the gray and white background. The carved dumplings look like cooked dumplings. When you see them, you feel like eating them and your mouth is watering. It’s as if you can smell the fragrance of the dumplings and have an appetite!

The raw stone with emerald green can be carved into green onions, making the food more colorful.

The combination of food can evoke the most resonance among people. A good sculpture requires one to see and feel something. This work is like that. It is an ingredient that almost everyone can understand.

After polishing, this work represents the texture of the food more vividly. If I don’t tell you that it is jadeite, many friends may think it is real food. Carving is so magical, and this is the beauty of jade.

This is a piece of raw stone that has been cut into pieces. Such a stone would be insignificant if thrown away. Can a sculptor still help it to make a comeback? Let's wait and see!

The difference between the raw jade and the finished product is like magic. The use of black and white is very suitable for the penguin. It is really not easy to bring waste materials back to life. It is worth praising to have such an idea.

A piece of high-quality high-ice Moisha jadeite looks as beautiful as sea water. What is the connection between this piece and penguins? Can it be perfectly combined?

It was originally designed to feel like an ice cube, so that the little penguin standing on the glacier and the sea water give it the same feeling as a polar glacier. It vividly and perfectly reproduces the picture of Antarctic penguins playing on the glacier, especially the ripples in the middle, which are so realistic and vivid.

In this way, an almost worthless piece of waste is immediately turned into treasure, a gorgeous comeback, and the value of the work is doubled, becoming a work of art worthy of collection.
