The carving determines the value of your jade!

In a piece of jadeite, what factors do you think determine its value? Is it the jadeite stone itself? There is no doubt that the raw stone is the decisive factor in its value, but who would talk to you about the value of a piece of low-quality raw stone? Apart from the value of the raw stone itself, the carving is what determines the value of a piece of jade jewelry.

As we all know, jade carving is an important step in turning a piece of stone into a work of art. Therefore, the quality of the carving determines the ultimate value of the jade. The quality of the carving depends on two factors: design and workmanship.

Let’s talk about the design first. Before you carve a work, you have to design its model and draw it on the draft. Only a tailor-made design can perfectly avoid all the defects of the original stone itself. Try to highlight the advantages of this stone. Not only that, advance design can better determine the artistic conception of the stone carving theme, and try to design jade works with beautiful meanings.

Then comes the workmanship. The design is just on paper, or its general appearance is drawn on the original stone. Ultimately, the work must be completed through carving and workmanship. In carving, it is very important to pay attention to details. All carvers can carve a general appearance, but the quality of a carver is reflected in the subtle details. Although there are organic carvings now, hand carving is still the best, because hand carving can enrich the vitality of a work, express the carver's thoughts, and give the jade a soul.

70% creativity and 30% craftsmanship. Good design and workmanship determine the level of carving, and good carving can create higher value for jade works!
