Don’t know how to choose jade carving?

Everyone loves exquisite jade, especially carvings. Not only do they have varied shapes, but the exquisite craftsmanship is even more attractive. However, due to the diverse types of carvings and the various craftsmanship schools, there is no absolute standard for judging carvings. So how can you buy carvings that are truly worth the money? In fact, you just need to pay attention to these points. Hai Xin will talk to you about them today!

A trick

As the first step in selecting carvings, "cleverness" is divided into clever thinking and clever color.

The reason why carvings are called carvings is that they have various carved patterns, and whether these patterns are cleverly conceived and have unique meanings determines their popularity in the market.

The clever use of color is to integrate the color that already exists on the surface of the jade into the entire pattern through ingenious carving, turning flaws into highlights and making the entire carving lively.

Erqiao

With the advancement of craftsmanship, new techniques of expressing colors have been added on the basis of the original clever colors, making the carvings more lifelike. The beauty of colorful carvings lies in the touch of color, which is not integrated into the pattern as an accessory, but serves as the protagonist, playing the role of finishing touch.

The jadeite that has been carved with beautiful colors not only has the beautiful meaning of the patterns, but also has the flexibility and brightness brought by the colors . This is the power of beautiful colors.

Three Points

The step that can bring the value of a sculpture to its peak is color separation .

Color separation is the most difficult part in the carving process. It requires distinguishing different colors on the basis of color carving, making them natural, coherent and not procrastinated. Multi-color jade includes two-color, three-color, four-color, and five-color. Among them, five-color jade includes red, green, purple, yellow, and white, which respectively represent the four meanings of blessing, wealth, longevity, joy, and wealth.

The more colors there are on the same piece of jade, the rarer it is. Jade carvings with exquisite colors and reasonable patterns are even rarer . A multi-colored jade pendant that is not large in size and has unclear tones generally costs tens of thousands of yuan . If the color were purer and the water quality better, its price would be at least hundreds of thousands of yuan .

When choosing multi-colored jade carvings, you can use the selection steps of "one clever, two pretty, three points" . In this way, whether it is pattern creativity or color carving, you will achieve a relatively satisfactory result. If you can choose a carving with exquisite pattern, prominent color and harmonious combination, it will be even more pleasantly surprised~~ So, as the most popular jade style, whether the carving is good or not, whether it is valuable or not depends on whether you can choose well. If you choose well, it will not only be worth the money, but also may appreciate in value~
