As the ancients said, jade can't be cut without cutting. A piece of jade will become more perfect after the sculptor's exquisite carving technology and unique design concept. And a good jade craft often mentions two contradictory aspects, one is that it requires exquisite craftsmanship and the other is that it requires simplicity.

There is a saying in the jade industry: "Good materials will never use errands." Jade raw materials with good color must be exquisite and good craftsmanship made by skilled craftsmen.

The value of jadeite lies in the precious and rare raw materials and the artistic expression of its craft. The perfect combination of the two can create a jade handed down from generation to generation, which has high collection value.

Well, since the craft of jadeite is more exquisite, the better. Why is it simple?

Jade itself is small in area, and it needs exquisite skills to carve some patterns on it. It should be made perfectly according to the characteristics of jade itself. Therefore, for jade, the more complicated the carving, the more valuable it is, but the more valuable it is to perfectly present the unique aesthetic feeling of jade itself.

More and more people like jade jewelry, not only because it has a restrained and luxurious atmosphere, but also because it has collection value.

Perhaps many people think that the simpler the carving, the higher the price of jadeite, because of simple and beautiful values. In fact, not only that, but also the value of jadeite is closely related to the quality of jadeite itself.

Carving simple jade can easily distinguish the water species and texture of jade and boldly show the beauty of jade. Even without complicated carving, a flawless jade will not affect its own value.

In a word, the simplicity or complexity of jade carving depends on its own texture, defects and other factors.
