What is the Jieyang craftsmanship in jade? What are the characteristics of Jieyang workers?

When many jade lovers buy jade carvings, they should often hear the owner introduce to everyone that this piece is made by Jieyang, the workmanship is very delicate and it is worth buying! So, are you guys confused, what exactly is Jieyang Gong? What are the characteristics of Jieyang workers?

Exquisite

Exquisiteness is the biggest feature of Jieyang craftsmanship. Traditional Jieyang craftsmanship will never sacrifice the details for the sake of the whole. If there are defects when making large items, then make smaller items instead; if there are also defects when making small items, then make egg-shaped items instead. In short, Jieyang workers' near zero tolerance for defects has created a golden signboard for Jieyang workers.

fine

I never tire of fine food and I never tire of delicate minced meat” is not only suitable for describing cooking, but also for the workers in Jieyang. No matter how small the object is, Jieyang people will not tire of carving it one tooth at a time, engraving one hair at a time, and grinding it one water drop at a time. Therefore, the texture of the Guanyin's hair bun made by Jieyang craftsmen is extremely clear and beautiful, and although it is small, it is not messy.

Precision

The Jieyang craftsmanship is very demanding. For example, when making a Buddha statue, no matter how good the water head of the material is, you have to dig on the back to adjust the water. If you compare carefully, you will find many similar details. The rigor and high degree of uniformity of Jieyang craftsmanship in details make the jadeite processed in Jieyang recognizable at a glance.

Because of the requirements of "three precisions", many jade lovers think that Jieyang craftsmen have obsessive-compulsive disorder about the materials and they must be flawless. Therefore, jade lovers believe that although Jieyang craftsmanship is exquisite, it is too exquisite and lacks charm and spirit . Because of the excessive pursuit of perfection, jade has lost some of its natural charm.
