Reveal the mystery of “jade carving labor costs” for everyone!

The carvers on the market can be roughly divided into four categories: apprentice, master, veteran and master carvers.

The carvings done by different people will naturally have different corresponding labor costs, and the effects presented will also be completely different.

Like the bamboo pendant in the picture above, it has only "shape" but no "meaning". In all likelihood, it was made by an apprentice and did not cost much.

The exquisite and detailed workmanship of the three-in-one kit in the picture above means that its cost must be high.

After all, if you are not a master, you would not dare to easily try the extremely difficult carving technique of "chain carving"!

Compared with the carving craftsmanship, the creativity of this work is obviously more outstanding.

The material, which originally had little water and white spots, was transformed into a lifelike broccoli in the hands of the jade carver.

The plant texture of the flower buds is vividly expressed, realistically detailed, and full of natural interest.

Seeing this, I believe everyone can already feel the difference between the carvings.

If you have a good piece of material in your hand, would you choose to be an apprentice or a master?

I believe that most of my friends will not waste their own materials just to save a few dollars!

In addition to the level of the carving master, the factors that affect the labor cost also include the complexity of the carving.

For example, the labor cost of Buddha will always be "cheaper" than that of Tara.

After all, the details and craftsmanship of Tara are far superior to those of Buddha!

Therefore, when people ask about labor costs, it is actually difficult to give an exact number at the first time.

Only after evaluating the materials and design plans can a price be arrived at!

Sometimes, the labor cost may even be more than the material itself, which means the material is not worth the labor.

In this case, it is not recommended to force the carving.
