​Buddha appears when flowers bloom, and the ashes are piled up. These two treasures are unpopular themes. I guess many people have never seen them.

In order to quickly realize cash and recover funds, jade merchants usually choose to carve some classic themes that are highly accepted by the public.

For example, various religious figures, flowers, birds, insects, animals, peace knots, and peace plaques can be easily found in the jade market.

Today I want to share with you two unpopular treasure themes that many jade lovers may not have seen!

First: Seeing the Buddha When the Flower Blooms

Jade themes related to Buddhism are usually solemn and dignified, such as Sakyamuni Buddha and Medicine Buddha.

"Seeing Buddha when flowers bloom" breaks this sacred filter and seems a bit different!

Friends who see this subject for the first time may find it strange and think it is a messy subject.

Of course, this does not mean that we have no ability to appreciate it. After all, "Buddha appears when flowers bloom" does look a bit flashy at first glance.

On the basis of the Buddha statue, a circle of flowers was added around it, and the whole atmosphere became less solemn.

Friends who don’t know the details may think that this is to let the Buddha “walk on the flower path”.

In fact, seeing the Buddha when the flower blooms is very meaningful and is not a random product.

In fact, in Buddhist scriptures, we can find the saying "See the Buddha when the flower blooms". The flower refers to the lotus, which means a noble and pure state of mind.

Anyone who can reach such a state already has Buddha nature in his heart.

It is of profound significance and worth savoring.

Second: Jinhuidui

No one should object to the fact that Jinhuidui is the jade theme with the most literary temperament, right? !

Therefore, if you want to appreciate Jinhuidui, you really need to have some literary literacy.

Otherwise you would just think it is a "trash can", nothing special!

Jinhuidui is a type of painting genre, pieced together from some cultural relics fragments (mainly calligraphy and paintings), so it is also known as Bapotu.

It originated in the Yuan Dynasty, flourished in the late Qing Dynasty, and was later tried by jade carvers on small pieces of jadeite.

At first glance, Jinhuidui doesn't seem to have much technical content.

An ordinary person could probably piece together a broken picture by looking through discarded drafts in the painter's trash can.

But what ordinary people make with waste paper is still waste paper. Only a versatile person with extremely high artistic qualities can turn waste into treasure!

Create an eclectic art that is "not better than calligraphy, not better than painting"!

It can be said that Jinhuidui is a highly creative art, and is by no means a simple patchwork game.

It is even more difficult to replicate it on jade!

The seemingly chaotic composition is actually orderly in its chaos, and the design must be based on the pattern and characteristics of each piece, which is a great test of the jade carver's skills.

This is also one of the reasons why few jade carvers carve Jinhuidui.

I wonder which of these two themes you, the friends in front of the screen, prefer?
